Bloomberg: where are your robots 😂😂 https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1930997923539828884

Brett Adcock says the Figure 03 robot is 93% cheaper than Figure 02; the company is well-capitalized to support sufficient training and inference compute, produce hundreds of thousands of robots, and hire the best people; the current focus is to keep the team small and fast. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1931263196217909682

Brett Adcock says the latest autonomous demo of Figure 02 is fully end-to-end and uses a single neural network – camera frames in, actions out. “You cannot code your way out of this problem.” https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1931039140512145724

Figure CEO Brett Adcock says his robots will share a single brain. When one learns something new, they all get smarter. Want an employee or a home assistant? You’ll pick the one that learns from everyone’s mistakes. This is how the flywheel spins. And why he believes the first https://x.com/vitrupo/status/1931001200604037145

fyi, we just posted a deep-dive write-up on the 60min logistics video Full behind-the-scenes on the AI work powering the latest Helix release https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1932192198025773371

Here’s my Bloomberg interview: → Figure’s business model → Best robot AI models today → Robots in the home and workforce Interview link in comment below https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1932071569633022445

Millions. There is a potential to shipping millions of robots doing just stuff like this A little under half of GDP is human labor And our humanoid robots are just synthetic humans who can work longer and ultimately faster / more accurate”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931886869316538830

There’s no way to code your way out of this problem Every bag is different; Every pile of packages is different This is however perfect for neural networks”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1932280240170250319

This could be a winner-take-all industry Whoever builds the smartest & cheapest robot wins More robots = lower cost = more training data = smarter Helix No one wants the dumb robot in their home or workplace”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931091232912212078

This clip from Figure shows what’s so exciting about end to end applications. Handling a messy, unstructured feed of objects like this would be very difficult to scale with traditional methods https://x.com/chris_j_paxton/status/1932072973847941505

This is 🤯 Figure 02 autonomously sorting and scanning packages, including deformable ones. The speed and dexterity are amazing. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1930706769061564921

Uncut hour-long footage of Figure 02 autonomously transferring and flattening packages for a scanner down the line. The robot is using Figure’s Helix model, a generalist VLA that now incorporates upgrades in temporal memory and force feedback. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1931394946768249324

Welcome to the most boring video we’ve ever posted Here’s 60 minutes of our humanoid robot solving logistics, powered by our Helix neural network https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931391783306678515

Figure update coming in the next 1-2 hours…standby”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931384282993537028

Figure’s Helix model can also perform a human–robot handover. “Helix’s single neural network policy produces the appropriate response based on what it sees. The system can be taught new context-dependent behaviors with only a handful of demonstrations.” https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1931534295619023323

Humanoid flips box (fun meme spoof of Figure celebration) 😂 https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931850724343964116

If I asked Figure team to lose commercialization time to be at an event they might quit: https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931219135175770271

Is this working Dan? (Figure response to heckler) https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1930693311771332853

It really feels like general robotics is within reach One robot for every human Congrats to Louis who led the project!”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1931509884484567323

New jobs are now posted at Figure, this will be a monster year for us Join us to build next-generation physical AI, humanoid robots, and all the subsystems that power them: > AI, Training Infra > AI, Large Scale Training > AI, Large Scale Model Evals > AI, Reinforcement https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1881792213514158565

This was a few months ago…Helix is now showing massive improvements in logistics – can’t wait to show you what’s new https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1930655461105426604

You there Dan? In the meantime, this is fully autonomous – powered by Helix 🧬 The AI policy learns to flip each package barcode-side down and even flattens puffy packages just like a human would”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1930854226529251565

If I could tell my younger self one thing after 20 years of building tech: move fast Speed is the ultimate advantage…the ultimate moat I used to chase perfect – every launch, every feature. But perfect slows you down. It blocks feedback, delays learning, kills momentum”” / X https://x.com/adcock_brett/status/1933226344156221746

Scaling laws drive smarter humanoid robots. Figure 02’s accuracy in the package handling task improved from 88.2% to 94.4% after the training data was scaled up by 6x. https://x.com/TheHumanoidHub/status/1931398514359353393
