Figure releases Helix 2.5, tested zero-shot in 30 unseen homes

Figure's Helix 2.5, pretrained on its Index dataset of human behaviour, tidied living rooms, folded towels and made beds in 30 Bay Area homes it had never seen, with no environment-specific fine-tuning. Index pretraining raised zero-shot success from 9% to 56%, and the model needed half the task-specific data of Helix 02.
