NVIDIA Releases VFlash, a System-1 VLM for Physical AI
VFlash treats visual planning as a fast, System-1 capability, pointing to a shift in how embodied agents handle low-latency decision-making instead of reasoning purely through text. Robotics and physical AI developers can review the project page and the lead's thread to understand the architecture details. It comes from the same NVIDIA research group as Jim Fan's GEAR Lab, whose embodied agent work is a useful benchmark for comparison.
