NVIDIA Cosmos 3.5 world models: now openly available

NVIDIA's Cosmos 3.5 family of open world foundation models for robots, autonomous vehicles and vision agents is now openly available on Hugging Face and GitHub plus inference partners. Announced at GTC Berlin Oct 21 alongside Cosmos Data Factory (blueprints and agent skills for curating, labeling, generating and evaluating training data), new post-training/optimization tools, and simulation checkpoints for interactive driving and manipulation scenarios.

Why it matters

A full open world-model stack for physical AI, not just weights: Cosmos 3.5 models plus Data Factory agent skills for data curation/labeling/generation, post-training tools, and simulation checkpoints — aimed at letting teams evaluate robot behavior before real-world testing.

What you could build with it

An indie developer building a synthetic-data pipeline for warehouse robots could combine Cosmos Data Factory's labeling blueprints with Cosmos 3.5 world models to generate rare-failure scenarios, then check whether policies trained on them outperform ones trained on real data alone.

Does it hold up?

Too early to judge — the open release is from Oct 21; enterprise users like Porsche and Siemens are already on Cosmos Data Factory, but independent community evaluation of the open weights has not happened yet.
