## Summary

SuperMimic trains a humanoid full-body control policy on 129,514 motions, surpassing the previous best result of 128 GPUs over 7 days with 1 GPU in 3 hours, reducing GPU hours by over 1,000x. Pieter Abbeel shared it and called it a game changer, noting that the key lies in using a world model faster than conventional simulation and in collecting far more signal than policy gradients through backpropagation through time.
