Preview:

The paper introduces the “One Stop Autonomization” approach, based on embodied, generative AI agents. These humanoid robots act flexibly in real-world environments, enabling scalable, safe, and human-centric automation. Emphasis is placed on explainability, simulation-based validation, and workforce augmentation, offering a new paradigm for collaborative autonomy in industry and beyond.
