    In recent years, robots have increasingly entered our daily lives, cooking meals, performing repetitive tasks, and working in industries from warehouses to restaurants. However, these robots operate in narrowly defined environments, following rigid scripts that leave them helpless when faced with real-world unpredictability. For example, a robot might be able to flip burgers or assemble…
