Will Knight describes in WIRED how AI coding tools OpenClaw and Codex generated Python scripts that configured and operated a Hugging Face LeRobot 101 dual-arm robot to grip objects

Ken Goldberg at UC Berkeley explores similar agentic coding methods.

It is truly mind-blowing how capable Claude and Codex now are at configuring and controlling robots. My own experiments (with a lerobot 101) point to a fascinating new trend in robotics that could accelerate adoption. Many thanks to @Ken_Goldberg and @spencerhuang_ for their insights! https://www.wired.com/story/i-gave-my-openclaw-agent-physical-body-robot/
