MotionBricks

NVIDIA Research shipped MotionBricks, a 224M-parameter model that replaces the hand-wired animation state machine with one generative backbone: 350,000 motion skills at 15,000 FPS and 2 ms latency, driving both game characters and a Unitree G1. Apache 2.0 code, open weights, and a dataset catch worth knowing about.

Cosmos 3

NVIDIA's Cosmos 3 is an open world model for physical AI: it predicts what happens next in the real world and outputs robot actions, with weights, data, and recipes under a permissive license. What it is, and what you can run.

Nemotron 3 Ultra

NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Ultra is a 550B hybrid Mamba-MoE built for long-running agents, the most intelligent US open-weights model, and NVIDIA shipped the data and recipes too, under a permissive license. What it is, what is open, and why you still cannot run it at home.

NVIDIA Ising

NVIDIA's Ising open AI models for quantum computing beat Gemini 3.1 Pro, Claude Opus 4.6, and GPT-5.4 on QCalEval. The open-source-vs-closed-frontier playbook.
