Figure Robotics, a humanoid robot company, has recently signed a significant deal with BMW, marking a major step in the AI and robotics industry. Brett Adcock, CEO of Figure Robotics, joined Herbert and Scott Walter on a podcast to discuss the intricacies of AI, robotics, and the implications of the Figure-BMW deal. They highlighted that Figure's robots are already performing production workloads autonomously, albeit slower than humans. Concurrently, Tesla's Optimus robot is progressing in its ability to learn tasks such as folding shirts, with the goal of performing autonomously in most environments at speed. These developments underscore a burgeoning competition between Figure Robotics and Tesla in the field of humanoid robots.
Great interview with @adcock_brett from @Figure_robot and @herbertong things get interesting at 33mins.. it seems they're way further along than I imagined. Brett says they have the robots doing production workloads autonomously, although slower than humans at this stage, they… https://t.co/DHLi9ltgmT
I went on Herbert’s podcast today, we go deep on AI & Robotics we also discuss the recent Figure + BMW deal & next steps youtube link below https://t.co/Oc7ofkQdj7
Exclusive interview with Brett Adcock CEO of humanoid bot Figure Robotics! Right on the heels of their blockbuster demo of AI robot skills and their announcement of a partnership with BMW. Are they closest to Tesla Bot? Joined by Scott Walter. @adcock_brett @GoingBallistic5 https://t.co/N2PzLZag4X
This is the @Tesla Optimus robot. Here it learns to fold a shirt. Next, it will do this autonomously, in most environments, at speed. https://t.co/fxEilqp0BL
