Using large-scale reinforcement learning to train a policy model that can be utilized by a robot in performing a robotic task in which the robot interacts with one or more environmental objects. In various implementations, off-policy deep reinforcement learning is used to train the policy model, and the off-policy deep reinforcement learning is based on self-supervised data collection. The policy model can be a neural network model. Implementations of the reinforcement learning utilized in training the neural network model utilize a continuous-action variant of Q-learning. Through techniques disclosed herein, implementations can learn policies that generalize effectively to previously unseen objects, previously unseen environments, etc.
