## Summary

Dream Labs released Dream-1 yesterday. A user deployed it on a robotic arm, saying it is very fast and can perform tasks zero-shot. In testing, when asked to move an apple, it instead grabbed a red block and did not stop, showing occasional random behavior. The publisher has made Dream-1 publicly available for people to try.
