If you've ever built a machine learning model in Python, you know how quickly things can get messy. Between cleaning your data, transforming features, and training your model, it’s easy to lose track of what happens when—and where bugs might creep in. That’s where Scikit-learn pipelines come in. Pipelines act like a to-do list for your machine learning workflow, helping you organize each step—from preprocessing to prediction—into a clear, repeatable process.

Boston Dynamics first revealed Atlas in 2013 and has since been sharing updates on the robot’s evolving abilities. We’ve seen Atlas hop, run, and even flip across our screens. Now, the humanoid is not only stepping behind the camera—quite literally—to explore how robotics can assist on film sets but is also being put to the test in car manufacturing.

Norwegian startup 1X released new video showcasing its humanoid robot, Neo Gamma, performing household tasks like vacuuming, cleaning windows, and carrying laundry. While the demo doesn’t confirm its level of autonomy, 1X has previously shown its Eve robots working independently. Neo Gamma features a 3D-printed nylon suit and shoes, designed for a minimalist home. 1X plans to begin testing Neo Gamma in homes by late 2025.

EPFL researchers have developed a robot that can drive, roll, and even paddle through water to reach its destination. A sneak peek at the innovations that will change our everyday lives in the future. GOATis a shape-shifting robot designed to move across almost any terrain by changing its form in real time. It can switch between a flat, rover-like mode for driving and a spherical mode for rolling, saving energy and adapting to different environments.
