## Summary

At CoRL 2026 in Austin, Tsinghua assistant professor and Galaxea CTO Hang Zhao gave an Early Career Keynote, one of three awarded this year. He argued that benchmarks ignoring inference time overstate robot performance. In RoboCasa experiments, direct and agentic control fell to 15% and 20% success under a real clock, while layered designs with fast low-level control held up.
