Summary
Vision-language-action (VLA) models can learn manipulation skills from demonstrations, but their capabilities are bounded by the skills in the training data. We present InSight, a framework that unlocks autonomous skill acquisition by rendering VLAs steerable at the primitive-action level (e.g., “move gripper to the bowl”, “lift upward”, “pour the bottle”). InSight consists of two primary stages:
