MIT is building tiny robots that can fly like insects.
Some weigh less than 100 milligrams and use flapping wings instead of propellers.
Scientists hope thousands could work together one day

For years, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models taught robots to perceive and react.
The new wave of physical AI does something different. It models how the world will move, and the action, together.
