Nous Research says Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang closed his GTC Berlin 2026 keynote with a Hermes Agent demo.

Huang set up a customized Hermes with one prompt, and Hermes planned an obstacle course with Nemotron and had GPT-6 Astra build it using FreeCAD, Omniverse libraries, Blender, Newton, and Isaac Lab.

Hermes then trained thousands of simulated ducks on the course for the Hugging Face Microduck robot. Nous Research says the validated policy was ready to run on the physical robot. The report is a company claim about a live demo; no independent account of the results is included.
