Fine-tuning World Action Models (WAMs): From multimodal data to reliable robot behavior

Event Overview
Physical AI breakthroughs don't come from new models alone; they come from better data. As robotics teams race to build model-based policies for embodied AI systems, they face a new challenge: managing massive volumes of multimodal data, improving data quality, and creating feedback loops that continuously improve real-world performance. Join Skander Fourati, ML Solutions Engineer at Encord, and Anushrav Vatsa, AI Solutions Engineer at Weights & Biases, to learn how leading AI teams are building data-centric workflows for physical AI and fine-tune a World Action Model (WAM) for a new embodiment. You'll learn how Encord and Weights & Biases by CoreWeave work together to connect data curation, annotation, evaluation, experimentation, and model iteration into a unified development workflow that helps teams move faster from raw sensor data to reliable robot behavior.
What to expect
  • A practical look at the data challenges slowing physical AI and novel architectures like WAMs
  • Real-world examples of multimodal data workflows spanning vision, language, action, and sensor streams
  • Best practices for connecting data quality, model evaluation, and experimentation into a continuous improvement loop
  • Insights into how Encord and Weights & Biases by CoreWeave help teams manage data and model development together
  • Live discussion and audience Q&A with experts working directly with robotics and physical AI teams
What you'll learn
  • Why data quality, not just model architecture, is becoming the primary bottleneck for physical AI development
  • How leading teams curate, annotate, version, and evaluate multimodal datasets for robotics and embodied AI
  • Techniques for identifying failure modes and connecting model performance back to underlying data issues
  • How to build a data flywheel that continuously improves WAMs and physical AI models through experimentation and evaluation
  • Ways to integrate Encord and Weights & Biases to create more reproducible, scalable physical AI workflows
Who should attend
