Our take
Humanoid robots are quickly moving from sci-fi to reality, with big tech companies racing to bring them into workplaces, and soon, our homes. It's a booming market, and Figure is one of the big names in the game.
Figure builds human-like robots that are powered by advanced AI that can walk, see, and even understand natural language. Its latest model, the Figure 02, is already piloting in a BMW factory, and its in-house AI system, Helix lets these robots perform complex tasks from simple voice prompts. The company's moving fast, and it's not slowing down anytime soon.
But moving fast comes with baggage. It recently cut ties with OpenAI after claiming a major breakthrough in robot intelligence, and it's now working completely solo. Still, Figure just secured major commercial deals and may be headed for a jaw-dropping $40B valuation. It's a high-stakes field that's as exciting as it is controversial and Figure is certainly one to watch out for.
