Google says Gemini 4 Argon taught humanoid robot to play cornhole

Google DeepMind's new model helped Apptronik's Apollo 2 learn a throw from a single clip, practice it in simulation, and land seven shots in a row Google DeepMind has taught a humanoid robot to play cornhole. The robot needed one video, some simulated practice, and zero coaching. The model behind it is Gemini 4 Argon, which Google DeepMind unveiled on October 13, 2026, during an internal robotics demonstration. The robot was Apptronik’s Apollo 2, and it sank seven consecutive shots. Backyard games are not the point.
