LOGIN 06-07-2024RAPID RESPONSE The Agility Robotics CEO talks humanoids, AR, and startup culture on the latest episode of the ‘Rapid Response’ podcast. [Photo: Agility Robotics] BY Robert Safian In the era of AI, are Hollywood’s threatening sci-fi robots poised to come to life? Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics, separates hype from reality, explaining how Agility’s humanoid robot, Digit, is entering the industrial workforce today. The former CEO of augmented reality startup Magic Leap, Johnson shares what makes robot tech more tangible than AR and explores the sensitive relationship between robotics and human-held jobs. This is an abridged transcript of an interview from Rapid Response, hosted by the former editor-in-chief of Fast Company Bob Safian. From the team behind the Masters of Scale podcast, Rapid Response features candid conversations with today’s top business leaders navigating real-time challenges. Subscribe to Rapid Response wherever you get your podcasts to ensure you never miss an episode. You became CEO of Magic Leap in the heat of the pandemic. Now you’ve taken on a new CEO role again at Agility. Can you catch us up on how you got here? At Magic Leap, we successfully turned things around. We repointed the company towards enterprise. I felt like I’d done what I came there to do. I think augmented reality is still very early days. It will happen. Even looking at the Apple Vision Pro, it’s going to take some time. And while I love the game-changing aspect of augmented reality, the trajectory is on a slower slope than robotics. And when I saw the opportunity at Agility, it appeared they had product market fit and a huge demand for what they could do—which is putting robots into many open jobs that people don’t want. I felt like that’s the spot for me. So I made the jump and I’m super excited about the space. Humanoids are kind of having a moment right now. There’s this huge tailwind of open jobs that are kind of repetitive, dull, and people don’t want. It’s these jobs that have doubled over the past five years from about 600,000 open jobs to about over a million. When you can’t find humans to do these jobs, humanoids can play that role. There are all kinds of robots that are used in business — a lot of them look like motorized carts or things like that. But Agility has this humanlike robot, that you called Digit. So why is there this sudden burst of attention of humanlike robots? In warehouses, automation has been around for over a decade. But there’s pockets still with humans that are moving a box from a conveyor belt over to an automated put wall. You can think of that as the Achilles’ heel of all of that fantastic automation. Humanoids can work for long hours, they don’t get hurt, they don’t get emotional, they don’t have anything that you have to worry about. When humanoids are deployed, the job for a human is to manage the fleet and the interaction between the robots and the other automated facilities. And that is something that looks more like a career. I’ve seen videos of Digit. Even the videos are a little spooky. What kind of relationships do the human workers have with the robots? We thought a lot about that. For instance, we have a head on Digit. And you can do different things with the eyes, like sparkles and hearts. There is a positive reaction with humans. There is a connection there because of that head and the fact that there are eyes. But mostly, humans and humanoids work separately. The idea of what’s called “collaborative robots” is a little bit further down the line. There’s very high safety standards. Is Digit a “he” . . . A “she”? I refer to it as an “it” oftentimes. But people do want to put characterization on the humanoid robot. We let them do what they’d like. You’re leaning into this industrial use. Is there a vision for Digit to be in retail environments, interacting with customers? Or is that sort of a different track? We’re only starting with these industrial applications because the need is so high. But this is a multipurpose humanoid. So it’s meant to go off into those areas. In fact, we’re already talking to customers in retail and transportation. You’ve seen a few of the consumer robots come and go. Households are pretty messy places. Things inside of a warehouse are much more structured. So the need is greater there. And that’s where we’re going to focus. And that’s where the revenue is. How are you thinking about using AI to change Digit? We’ve been using AI in the form of reinforcement learning. So it’s been part of how we’ve developed Digit. The big opportunity that we see going forward is this idea of Digit’s semantic intelligence. So, giving Digit unstructured commands. The other day, we said, “go pick up all this trash” and Digit looked around, picked up the trash, and put it in the right bins—recycle, paper, or landfill. But going forward, AI is going to help us teach Digit new skills much more quickly. You don’t want to use AI fully to control the robot right now. ‘Cause as we know, it’s not always perfect. And when you have a robot that weighs 160 pounds or so, and has all the torque to lift up heavy things, you want to be controlling that with a known platform. And so, until we’re much further along with AI, we aren’t going to make that swap. You were a first time CEO at Magic Leap. What did you learn from that experience that you’re applying now? Like, what are you doing differently? When I first stepped in at Magic Leap, they were chasing a lot of markets and we narrowed that down. That’s the same here—we get a lot of attention from companies who have innovation departments, for instance. I respect the innovation departments, but if they don’t have an intention to deploy and a problem to solve, we don’t focus there. We pick up and move on. We don’t want to be an interesting demo for someone’s boardroom, frankly. This is not demoware. We’re not doing backflips and making coffee. When you left Microsoft, it was sort of just starting to come out of hibernation in a certain way. And now thanks to co-pilot and the arrangement with OpenAI, things are just cooking over there. Do you ever think about the decision to leave and wonder, “what if I’d stayed?” Actually, never. I loved my time there. I loved working for Satya Nadella. I learned so much from him. He’s clearly an iconic leader, but I remember very clearly the day I made up my mind. It was actually only a few weeks into COVID lockdown at the time. My job in particular slowed down. It was running biz dev, very outwardly facing. I got on planes all the time—that was not available anymore. So I really sat and thought about where I was in my career, and I had always wanted to be a CEO. And I think like a lot of people, you keep saying, “well, if I just had a little more experience here, a little more experience there, then I’ll be ready.” But I started looking. Now that I’ve had the experience at Magic Leap and Agility, I could never see myself going back. I like the startup environment. I like the pace. I like the freedom and the flexibility to make decisions. The bigger the company is, the harder it is to get to a yes or no. And so I love the fast-paced environment at startups. I’m at the point in my career where I can do anything I want. And this is what I want to do. I love it.

Fan)近日在社群發表長文直指，機器人領域仍處於高度混沌狀態，不僅軟硬體迭代節奏失衡，連主流技術路線都可能存在方向性偏誤；在生成式AI於雲端快速擴散、相關類股估值已高度前置之際，機器人若遲遲無法建立可複製的工程與量產方法學，將直接影響投資人對「下一個AI爆發點」的定價框架。他首先把矛頭指向硬體可靠性。儘管Optimus、e-Atlas、Figure、Neo、G1等人形機器人展現精湛工程能力，但日常運行仍面臨過熱、馬達損壞、韌體異常等高頻問題，且錯誤往往不可逆、不可容忍，導致軟體迭代被迫降速，研發更像「靠營運團隊撐住的工程戰」。市場人士解讀，這意味短期瓶頸不在模型參數，而在可維護性、可用率與成本曲線，商業化落地不會線性發生。第二個痛點是行業標準缺失。范麟熙形容機器人領域的基準測試(Benchmarking)近乎失序，硬體平台、任務定義、評分標準、模擬器或真實世界設定均缺乏一致規範，使外界難以比較不同團隊成果，衍生「各自定義基準、各自宣稱最強」的現象；部分展示影片也可能只是多次嘗試

Peggy Johnson, the Silicon Valley veteran who became the chief executive of Agility Robotics earlier this year, told Business Insider that it'd soon be "very normal" for humanoid robots to become coworkers with humans across a variety of workplaces. Many factories in the US are struggling to recruit workers amid a labor shortage that Deloitte predicted could cost the economy as much as $1 trillion by 2030. In January, there were 622,000 manufacturing jobs that hadn't been filled, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Enter the robots. "First in the business-enterprise space because that's where the need is highest. And then, as Digit learns new skills, it'll start to be able to go beyond logistics and manufacturing facilities and eventually, somewhere way down the line, is consumer robots," Johnson said in an interview at the Web Summit tech event in Lisbon earlier this month.

Digit is Agility Robotics' mobile manipulation humanoid robot. It stands at 5-foot-9 and has hands designed to grip and carry objects. Its backward-folding legs allow it to maneuver around a workspace. Digit also has animated LED eyes that act as indicators to its human coworkers to let them know which function it's about to perform next. This year, Digit became the first humanoid robot to be "paid" for performing a job. Agility Robotics signed a multiyear deal with GXO Logistics for Digit to be deployed in its Spanx womenswear factories, with it moving boxes known as totes and placing them onto conveyor belts. Agility Robotics charges a monthly fee, similar to a software-as-a-service model, which includes the Digit robot, its work cell, and the robot's operating software. While Agility Robotics hasn't disclosed the exact amount its Digit robots are paid, the company has previously said that GXO is estimated to see a return on its investment within two years, based on the equivalent of a human working an hourly rate of $30. Johnson said that any company that requires material handling — be it pharmaceutical or grocery — could make use of a workforce of Digits. "Mobile phones started first in the enterprise space because there was an ROI for a salesperson not to stop and find a phone," Johnson said. "That will happen with robots." Amazon began testing Digit in its warehouse operations last year. Ford is looking at how it can deploy Digit with its autonomous-vehicle technology to create a "last-mile" delivery service. Most recently, Agility Robotics struck a deal with the German automotive and industrial supplier Schaeffler, which also made a minority investment in the company. Agility Robotics has raised about $178 million in investment to date, a spokesperson said. It competes with the likes of Apptronik, which is working with NASA on humanoid robots, and Boston Dynamics, which has created humanoid robots called Atlas that it says can run and jump over obstacles, as well as perform factory-worker tasks. Agility Robotics' humanoid robots are permitted to work only inside a specific, cordoned-off space separate from human workers. But Johnson said that by mid-2025, the next-generation version of Digit would be able to safely operate around humans. The company is aiming for the new model to be commercially available within 18 to 24 months. A 2023 Gallup poll found that about one-fifth of US workers surveyed were worried that their jobs would become obsolete because of technology, up from 15% of workers polled in 2021. Johnson said Agility Robotics hadn't had pushback from the likes of workers' unions despite advancements in the number of humanlike tasks Digit can perform. Widespread deployment of humanoid robots is still some way off, however. "I think they also recognize that these are jobs that they haven't been able to fill," Johnson said. "We tend to think of it as augmenting humans and not replacing humans — it's just taking some of the tasks off their plate." While Digit robots are starting to be tested in some workplaces, Johnson said getting them to perform tasks around the home, like folding laundry, would take awhile longer. "A household is a very chaotic environment: At any given moment, a child's ball runs across the room, and dogs run by. There's things that are in the way," Johnson said. "Warehouses are much more disciplined." Johnson said the data gathered by robots working in warehouses would eventually be used to train consumer robots. But she added that she wanted Agility Robotics to focus on demonstrating what its technology can perform today — rather than the concept videos used by some of its competitors. Robotics videos and demos at trade shows and events are often highly choreographed, she said. For instance, Tesla's humanoid Optimus bots at last month's robotaxi event were remotely operated by humans behind the scenes. "The hype, in general, is not great for the industry because people think it's somehow not here and now," Johnson said. "My job is to say, no, it is here and now. Humanoids are deployed right now and are getting paid to do work." Agility Robotics takes a similarly cautious approach to its application of artificial intelligence, which is deep in the hype stage. Johnson described the company as "AI-agnostic," as it uses various models in reinforcement learning to help fine-tune Digit's leg movements and help it recognize and carry out various tasks. "Many companies in the robotics space think, well, now that AI is here, I can just build a complete AI stack. We think that is very dangerous right now," Johnson said. "The problem is, just asking ChatGPT a question — it doesn't always answer exactly right. Can you imagine if what it's telling it to do is move an arm around and these things are human forms, 5-foot-9, 160 pounds? They have a lot of force." Jump to

Digit, the flagship robot at Oregon-based Agility Robotics, raised its hand to wave at the audience at the Fortune Brainstorm Tech in Park City, Utah, as CEO Peggy Johnson explained to the crowd why the robot’s knees were, well, backward—like bird legs. “Knees get in the way of picking things up,” she explained to Fortune tech reporter Jason Del Rey, pointing out that Digit was designed to work in big warehouses, lifting things up and putting things down. Now, Digit is putting its backward-knees design, ten years in the making, to good use: The droid recently got hired at its first real job—picking up totes at a Spanx facility in Georgia and putting them onto conveyors. The work is part of a multi-year deal with logistics provider GXO Logistics, and Johnson said the company is already getting monthly revenue from the robot-as-a-service project. Johnson, who has only been in the CEO role for four months, said that there are about 1.1 million unfilled warehouse jobs in the US that require the repetitive, mundane tasks Digit is doing. “Nobody wants these jobs,” she said, adding that repetitively lifting heavy weights leads to workers getting hurt, and ultimately quitting their warehouse jobs. “That’s where the injuries come in. That’s where the turnover comes in,” she said. Warehouse employees that used to do physical work are now becoming the managers of the robots, she added: “They need to be upskilled.” Agility Robotics, which spun out of research at Oregon State University, raised $150 million in a Series B round in April 2022 as the company prepared to deploy Digit in logistics and warehouse environments. Now that Digit has been released into the wild of the warehouse, Johnson said the company is working on a rollout for its next generation of Digit to come in the fall. Thanks to a factory the company recently built in Salem, Oregon, the company will roll out hundreds of Digit robots, and thousands are planned for the following year—with an eye towards a goal of 10,000 to meet growing demand. But it’s not just about getting the robots to walk—backward knees and all, Johnson emphasized. Instead, it’s about the robot being able to step into an operation’s existing workflow. “We need to enter a corporate IT infrastructure and make it work for them,” she said. In April 2024, Agility Robotics confirmed that it laid off a “small number” of employees because of “ongoing efforts to structure the company for success” while ramping up production of Digit. Johnson said that the company is currently raising capital for another round of funding down the line. But at the moment, she said, she is trying to figure out the best workplace for the handful of Digit robots currently available. “We have a lot of interest from automotive, retail grocers,” she said. “I’m trying to figure out which direction to go in.” Correction: Agility Robotic’s $150 million funding was a Series B in 2022, not a series C in 2024. The GXO facility where Digit is working is in Georgia, not Connecticut. Sharon Goldman is an AI reporter at Fortune and co-authors Eye on AI, Fortune’s flagship AI newsletter.

Agility Robotics is wrapping up construction of a factory in Salem, Oregon, where it plans to mass produce its first line of humanoid robots, called Digit. Each robot has two legs and two arms and is engineered to maneuver freely and work alongside humans in warehouses and factories. The 70,000-square-foot facility, which the company is calling the "RoboFab," is the first of its kind, according to Damion Shelton, co-founder and CEO of Agility Robotics. COO Aindrea Campbell, who was formerly Apple's senior director of iPad operations and an engineering manager at Ford, told CNBC that the facility will have a 10,000 unit annual max capacity when it's fully built out and will employ more than 500 people. For now, though, Agility Robotics is focused on the installation and testing of its first production lines. "It's a really big endeavor, not something where you flick a switch and suddenly turn it on," Campbell said. "There's kind of a ramp-up process. The inflection point today is that we're opening the factory, installing the production lines and starting to grow capacity and scale with something that's never been done before." Funded by DCVC and Playground Global among venture investors, Agility Robotics beat would-be competitors to the punch, including Tesla with its Optimus initiative, by completing development of production prototype humanoid robots and standing up a factory where it can mass produce them. Shelton told CNBC that his team developed Digit with a human form factor so that the robots can lift, sort and maneuver while staying balanced, and so they could operate in environments where steps or other structures could otherwise limit the use of robotics. The robots are powered with rechargeable lithium ion batteries. One thing Digit lacks is a five-fingered hand — instead, the robot's hands look more like a claw or mitten. "Human style hands are very complex," Shelton said. "When I see robots that have five fingers, I think, 'Oh, great. Someone built a robot, then they built two more robots onto that robot.' You should have a 'hand' that is no more complex than you need for the job." Digit can traverse stairs, crouch into tight spaces, unload containers and move materials onto or off of a pallet or a conveyor, then help to sort and divide material onto other pallets, according to Agility. The company plans to put the robots to use transporting materials around its own factory, Campbell said. Agility's preferred partners will be first to receive the robots next year, and the company is only selling — not renting or leasing — the systems in the near term. Asked if the company is concerned that its technology could "steal jobs" from people, Shelton said he envisions Digit allowing manufacturing and logistics businesses to meet rising demand as recruiting remains a challenge and as many workers retire or opt to leave the industry. Matt Ocko, managing partner at DCVC and an investor in Agility, told CNBC that Digit should "fill millions of unmet roles that human beings don't want." At the same time, he emphasized, Agility Robotics has designed its humanoid robots to work safely and autonomously as a "robotic co-worker." Got a confidential news tip? We want to hear from you.

Mercado Libre, Latin America’s largest e-commerce company and fintech acquirer, has signed an agreement with Agility Robotics to deploy Digit, the latter’s humanoid robot, in its fulfilment centre in San Antonio, Texas. The company also plans to deploy Agility Robotics’ robots across more of Mercado Libre’s warehouses in Latin America. The companies will begin with commerce-support tasks and will test how humanoid systems can fit into the e-commerce company’s existing workflows. The agreement aims to address labour gaps, automate repetitive work, and improve workplace ergonomics. Both companies will evaluate how Digit can support logistics operations and help staff shift to more value-added roles. With this, Mercado Libre has joined other companies deploying Agility’s robots, including GXO, Schaeffler, and Amazon. “At Mercado Libre, we are constantly exploring how emerging technologies can elevate our operations and improve the experience for our employees and millions of users,” said Agustin Costa, senior VP of shipping at Mercado Libre, in a statement. Digit will move materials in the Texas facility by walking, lifting, and carrying totes (plastic bins) through standard warehouse aisles. Agility said the robot can integrate into existing layouts without significant changes. The robot has already handled more than 100,000 totes in live operations, the company noted. Costa said the deployment is a step towards building a “safer, more efficient, and adaptable logistics network.” Daniel Diez, chief business officer at Agility Robotics, said the company is “excited to partner with them [Mercado Libre] to integrate our autonomous humanoid robots capable of performing meaningful work and delivering real value into their facilities.” Agility asserted that Digit can take on high-turnover roles and support continuous workflows. It uses AI to learn new tasks and adapt to different processes. The robot utilises Agility ARC, the company’s cloud platform for managing robot fleets within enterprise systems, for task allocation. 📣 Want to advertise in AIM?

美國物流巨頭 GXO 偌大倉庫裡，體型修長的藍綠色身影正忙進忙出。它有如鳥雙腿，夾爪雙手靈巧探入無人搬運車，將一個個物流塑膠箱搬至輸送帶。這批融入工作流、與人類共享工作空間的機器員工「Digit」，已忠實執行任務超過一年。 6月，美國機器人獨角獸Agility Robotics為自家Digit歡慶上工一週年。超過2千小時工時，搬運30多萬個庫存單位。這只是全世界首款商業部署的人形機器人的首個里程碑。 Earlier this month, Digit passed the one-year mark working full time for @GXOLogistics 🎉🤖 pic.twitter.com/wom0Qz4LKq — Agility Robotics (@agilityrobotics) June 26, 2025 Agility Robotics共同創辦人暨機器人首席設計長赫斯特（Jonathan Hurst）眼中，他親手打造的Digit還有很大的發展空間。未來，Digit將走出倉庫，進入工廠、零售、照護領域，最終進入一般消費者的家庭。 「不需要急著跳到終點」，赫斯特對《遠見》解釋，家用機器人的安全門檻最高，他估算是機器人最後抵達的市場。但前進家戶的途中，每個逐步解鎖的市場都超過百億美元規模。他表示，「服務這些市場時，你可以打造百億甚至兆億美元規模的公司。最終再將機器人推上家用市場。」 除了與GXO簽約別具意義的「機器人即服務」（Robots-as-a-Service）長期合約，Agility Robotics早已打入高度自動化的零售巨頭亞馬遜倉儲。年初以來，Digit也在舍弗勒（Schaeffler）位於美國南卡的工廠裝卸洗衣機外殼。這間機械與汽車零件製造商亦是Agility投資者，準備全球生產基地部署人形機器人。 合作數年後，輝達9月宣布，創投部門Nventures加入Agility Robotics的C輪投資。之前Agility已應用輝達Omniverse機器人模擬與學習框架Isaac Sim與Isaac Lab，在模擬環境訓練機器人全身控制能力。Digit也是新機器人電腦Jetson Thor的早期使用者。 ▲ Agility Robotics共同創辦人、首席機器人長赫斯特（Jonathan Hurst）。 2015年成立，研發機器人已久的Agility Robotics正在這波「實體AI」熱潮助陣下加速前進。身為業界首個拿下長期商業合約的人形機器人供應商，他們最寶貴一課是什麼？ 答案是：安全性是規模化商業應用的最大門檻。赫斯特直言，這是最重要的經驗學習，「沒有一套完整的功能安全性策略，就無法部署機器人」。 過往，工廠自動化設備常是固定式，或只在機器工作區執行任務，以防人類員工受傷。但如果只將人形機器人部署特別工作區域，就大幅限制任務種類，可說是失去研發人形機器人的意義。 赫斯特便說，「人形機器人的價值在於，它可以走入現有為人類打造的空間，代人類執行原本人要做的工作。」 他表示，Agility Robotics也是在概念驗證、與亞馬遜等客戶合作以後，才真正理解機器人需要什麼安全性策略，「這需要整體性設計整台機器人（以符合安全原則）」。 例如，與人類在共同空間工作的機器人可能會因電力不足或踩到障礙物摔倒，壓在人類身上。目前Digit重量超過60公斤，未來超過100公斤，是相當高風險的意外事件。 ▲ Agility Robotics概念驗證、與亞馬遜等客戶合作以後，才真正理解機器人需要什麼樣的安全性策略。 為了搬運貨物，Digit雙臂可承重逾15公斤。若在抬放、轉動手臂時撞到人的臉部，那也相當危險。 率先搶進商業市場，Agility Robotics希望在安全性解決方案上，也扮演領頭羊的角色。預計在2026年推出的第五代Digit，可望成為第一個安全性足以與人類密切合作的人形機器人。 這包括裝配一系列感測器，以確保準確偵測到人類。當人類逐漸靠近，機器人就會停止、坐下，進入低能量模式，這樣就不會摔倒在人身上。可能也需要一套獨立監控系統，若監測到機器人可能有逾越安全守則的行動，就能介入阻止。 赫斯特表示，安全部署需要一整套完整的安全功能策略。不只是元件、模組本身的安全性，也牽動外型設計，是從裡到外的整體性更新補強。 Agility Robotics的計畫是2026年底前讓Digit與人類高度合作（fully cooperative）；也就是人機可在同空間工作，但不會同時處理同物件。再以此為基礎，前進真正的人機協作（fully collaborative）。 Agility Robotics也與波士頓動力（Boston Dynamics）等其他機器人公司，一同制定可動態平衡的工業移動機器人安全標準ISO 25785-1。有了國際化安全標準，才能為機器人提供認證保險，為商業部署打下基礎。 「那會是首款具備功能安全性、可動態平衡的人形機器人，能在工作區域外使用。」赫斯特表示。「那也將是人形機器人規模化的時刻，也就是它們不需額外基礎建設支援，就可進入一個空間執行工作流程時。我們將在2026年底發表這項成果。」 倉儲物流、製造工廠等場域，是人形機器人從任務明確的結構化場域邁向彈性、多元的開放世界的初始應用場景，也是啟動「資料飛輪」最佳化產品、以實質營收證成後續投資的關鍵起步。 Agility Robotics花費數年，檢視數百個用例，才找到「倉儲物流」這理想的灘頭市場。赫斯特舉例，一開始考慮「最後一哩配送」，讓機器人從自駕車把包裹送至客戶門口。但自駕車還不普及，每個家戶也不盡相同，加上安全性是一大挑戰，並非理想用例。 Agility Robotics也評估過物流裝卸貨，但紙箱大小不同，如何抓取、分類相當複雜。要把紙箱堆到高處需要攀爬凳子，堆在牆邊時手臂容易撞到牆，因此這也不適合當初始市場。 最後，他們發現搬運倉庫用的物流塑膠箱，是非常適合Digit的任務。這些塑膠箱標準化程度夠高，Digit可用夾爪抓取手把位置。要舉著重物在狹窄走道移動，Digit磨練已久的雙腿動態平衡能力也正好派上用場。 ▲ 搬運倉庫用的物流塑膠箱，是非常適合Digit的任務。 赫斯特估計，光這個市場就有出貨數千台的潛力。盡早進入市場，也讓公司累積實地部署、管理大量機器人的經驗，並能優化安全性功能等產品面向。 或許更重要的是，這讓Agility Robotics與客戶一同成長、一同打造更「通用」的人形機器人。如赫斯特強調，如果只要自動化單一任務，機器手臂便可勝任。但Agility逐步拓展Digit任務範圍，客戶手上的人形機器人會愈來愈多工。他認為，下一步先是物流箱工作流的上下游任務，等到掌握更靈巧的操控能力，會再回頭攻克紙箱搬運這項任務。 「我們不想持續募資、花十幾二十年進軍最終階段市場」，赫斯特表示，「我們想要開始賺錢，逐步建立持續改進的飛輪效應」。 他預期，人形機器人最初的應用場域在工業環境，接著會進入結構化程度較低、需要高安全標準的產業，如零售雜貨、建築、照護，最後進入一般家庭。整個過程將花超過十年時間。赫斯特預期，到2050年，機器人將能與人類在共有空間一起工作生活。為了邁向那樣的未來，無論Digit或人類，都還有許多工作要完成。 （本文由 遠見雜誌 授權轉載；圖片來源：Agility Robotics） 文章看完覺得有幫助，何不給我們一個鼓勵 您的咖啡贊助將是讓我們持續走下去的動力 從這裡可透過《Google 新聞》追蹤 TechNews 科技新知，時時更新 我的最愛 趕快加入最愛頁面 Facebook 成為我們的小粉絲 RSS 即時更新新知 © 2013-2025 TechNews Inc.

In the rapidly evolving field of humanoid robotics, Agility Robotics is pushing boundaries with its latest innovation: a whole-body control foundation model designed to act as the “motor cortex” for its Digit robots. This neural network, boasting fewer than one million parameters, promises to revolutionize how humanoid robots interact with dynamic environments, handling tasks from heavy lifting to disturbance recovery with unprecedented stability and efficiency. Drawing from advanced simulation techniques, the model is trained entirely in NVIDIA’s Isaac Sim, leveraging reinforcement learning to master omnidirectional locomotion and manipulation. As detailed in a recent post on Agility Robotics’ blog, the system decouples high-level planning from low-level control, allowing for intuitive interfaces that simplify teleoperation and behavior cloning. Sim-to-Real Transfer Breakthroughs One of the model’s standout features is its zero-shot sim-to-real transfer capability, enabling seamless deployment from virtual training to physical hardware without additional fine-tuning. This efficiency stems from a carefully curated dataset of 2,000 hours of simulated motion, encompassing diverse scenarios like uneven terrain navigation and object manipulation under perturbations. Industry observers note that this approach addresses longstanding challenges in robotics, such as underactuation and complex dynamics. A survey published on arXiv highlights how behavior foundation models like this one facilitate rapid adaptation to new tasks, potentially transforming humanoid applications in logistics and manufacturing. Integration with Broader Ecosystems Agility’s foundation model integrates smoothly with higher-level AI systems, including large language models for task planning. Posts on X from robotics experts, such as those shared by Chris Paxton, Agility’s director of robotics, emphasize its robustness in handling heavy objects and disturbances, positioning it as a platform for learning new skills. Recent news from The Robot Report underscores August 2025 as a pivotal month for such advancements, with Agility’s work featured alongside investments and new product releases. The model’s small size and low computational demands make it deployable on edge devices, a boon for real-world operations. Real-World Deployments and Future Implications In practical terms, this technology is already influencing deployments. Agility’s cloud platform, Arc, allows for workflow integration in warehouses, as noted in their official site updates. A Business Insider interview with Agility’s CEO reveals plans for safety-certified humanoids by late 2025, capable of operating alongside humans. Bloomberg reports project the humanoid market reaching $38 billion by 2035, with Agility at the forefront. X discussions, including those from The Humanoid Hub, praise the model’s simulation-based training for enabling safe, reactive control in diverse tasks. Challenges and Ethical Considerations Despite these strides, challenges remain in scaling such models for general-purpose use. NVIDIA’s Jetson Thor integration, as announced on Agility’s site, aims to meet growing compute needs, supporting more complex perceptions and decisions. Insiders at events like RoboBusiness 2025, covered by The Robot Report, share insights on initial deployments, revealing lessons in human-robot collaboration. As Agility refines this foundation model, it could set new standards for robotic autonomy, blending machine learning with physical intelligence in ways that enhance human productivity without replacing it. Looking Ahead in Robotic Innovation The convergence of foundation models with humanoid hardware signals a shift toward more intuitive robotic systems. Wikipedia’s entry on Agility Robotics traces its origins to Oregon State’s Dynamic Robotics Lab, underscoring the academic foundations fueling these commercial breakthroughs. Ultimately, this whole-body control model exemplifies how targeted AI can bridge simulation and reality, paving the way for robots that not only perform tasks but adapt intelligently to the unpredictable nature of human environments. As 2025 progresses, Agility’s innovations may well define the next era of practical robotics. Subscribe for Updates Help us improve our content by reporting any issues you find.

Tesla, insansı robot projesi Optimus’un seri üretimini, el ve kol tasarımında yaşanan ciddi teknik sorunlar nedeniyle geçici olarak askıya aldı. Şirket, bu aksaklıklar yüzünden 2025 sonu için belirlediği üretim hedefini 5.000 üniteden 2.000 üniteye düşürmek zorunda kaldı. Gelen son bilgilere göre, Tesla’nın el ve kol tasarımı konusunda zorluklar yaşadığı belirtiliyor. Proje sürecine yakın kaynaklar, mühendislerin insan eline benzer esnek ve çevik bir mekanizma geliştirmekte büyük zorluk çektiğini söylüyor. Bu durum, seri üretimin geçici olarak durmasına yol açtı. Şirketin depolarında, eli ve ön kolu bulunmayan çok sayıda robot gövdesinin biriktiği bildiriliyor, ancak ne zaman tamamlanacaklarına dair net bir takvim verilmedi. Elon Musk, katıldığı bir podcast yayınında tasarım sorunlarını doğruladı, ancak üretimin yeniden başlayacağı bir tarih belirtmedi. Tesla, bu teknik sıkıntıları ilk olarak geçen yaz fark etti ve o dönemde üretim hedefini düşürme kararı aldı. Yeni problemlerin ortaya çıkmasıyla birlikte şirket, kaynaklarını mekanik iyileştirmelere ve tasarım revizyonlarına yönlendirdi. Başlangıçta 2025 sonuna kadar en az 5.000 Optimus robotu üretme hedefi olan Tesla, mühendislerin hedefin gerçekçi olmadığını belirtmesi üzerine bu sayıyı 2.000 üniteye indirdi. Bu revize edilen plan, robotun gelişim sürecinin beklenenden daha karmaşık hale geldiğini gösteriyor. Elon Musk, insan benzeri el hareketlerinin tasarım sürecindeki en zorlu aşama olduğunu daha önce de söylemişti. Buna rağmen Musk, Optimus projesine olan inancını koruyor.

Tesla приостановила массовый выпуск ÑÐ²Ð¾Ð¸Ñ Ð³ÑƒÐ¼Ð°Ð½Ð¾Ð¸Ð´Ð½Ñ‹Ñ Ñ€Ð¾Ð±Ð¾Ñ‚Ð¾Ð² Optimus из-за Ñ‚ÐµÑ Ð½Ð¸Ñ‡ÐµÑÐºÐ¸Ñ ÑÐ»Ð¾Ð¶Ð½Ð¾ÑÑ‚ÐµÐ¹ с конструкцией рук, сообщили инсайдеры и СМИ, включая The Information и TechSpot. Инженеры компании столкнулись с трудностями в обеспечении Ð½ÐµÐ¾Ð±Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð¸Ð¼Ð¾Ð¹ гибкости и Ð¿Ð¾Ñ Ð¾Ð¶ÐµÑÑ‚Ð¸ рук робота на человеческие. Особенно проблемными оказались модули кистей и предплечий, из-за чего Tesla уже накопила на ÑÐºÐ»Ð°Ð´Ð°Ñ Ð½ÐµÑÐºÐ¾Ð»ÑŒÐºÐ¾ десятков ÑÐ¾Ð±Ñ€Ð°Ð½Ð½Ñ‹Ñ Ñ‚ÐµÐ» роботов без рук. На данный момент неизвестно, когда эта проблема будет полностью решена. Первый этап производства столкнулся с задержками ещё летом 2024 года, после чего планы по выпуску были существенно пересмотрены. Изначально компания планировала выпустить не менее 5000 моделей Optimus к концу 2025 года, однако эта цель выглядела слишком амбициозной. Позже план сократили до 2000 единиц, но и эта цифра теперь под вопросом. Илон Маск подтвердил существование трудностей с дизайном рук, отметив, что создание Ð¿Ð¾Ñ Ð¾Ð¶Ð¸Ñ Ð½Ð° человеческие кистей — самая сложная часть проекта. Несмотря на это, он ÑÐ¾Ñ Ñ€Ð°Ð½ÑÐµÑ‚ оптимизм и опубликовал видео с роботом, осваивающим боевые искусства и выполняющим движения вместе с актёром Джаредом Лето. Робот Optimus был впервые представлен в 2021 году как универсальный гуманоид, способный выполнять опасные и утомительные для человека задачи, включая сортировку аккумуляторов и инспекции на Ð·Ð°Ð²Ð¾Ð´Ð°Ñ Tesla. В июле 2025 года производство уже прерывалось после ÑƒÑ Ð¾Ð´Ð° Милана Коваца, бывшего старшего вице-президента по Ñ€Ð¾Ð±Ð¾Ñ‚Ð¾Ñ‚ÐµÑ Ð½Ð¸ÐºÐµ в Tesla, что повлияло на организацию разработки. Сейчас компания работает над улучшением конструкции, в том числе над увеличением срока службы Ð¼ÐµÑ Ð°Ð½Ð¸Ð·Ð¼Ð¾Ð² и повышением энергоэффективности. Планируется, что обновлённые версии рук и предплечий обеспечат Ð½ÐµÐ¾Ð±Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð¸Ð¼Ñ‹Ðµ Ñ Ð°Ñ€Ð°ÐºÑ‚ÐµÑ€Ð¸ÑÑ‚Ð¸ÐºÐ¸ для Ð¿ÐµÑ€ÐµÑ Ð¾Ð´Ð° к масштабному производству. © iXBT

Илон Маск опубликовал на своей странице в соцсети X (ранее Twitter) видео с тренировок робота Tesla Optimus по боевым приемам в спарринге с человеком. На видео робот реагирует на действия партнера, выполняя блоки и удары в скоординированной, «танцевальной» манере. Маск подтвердил, что робот действует автономно с помощью встроенного ИИ и без дистанционного управления человеком. Маск сопроводил ролик подписью «Tesla Optimus учится кунг-фу», в котором заметно улучшение скорости и плавности движений робота. Вице-президент Tesla по программному обеспечению ИИ Ашок Эллусвами в комментариях к публикации добавил, что компания планирует создать единую ИИ-систему, которая будет использоваться как в роботах Optimus, так и в беспилотных автомобилях Tesla. Tesla Optimus — это робот-гуманоид, созданный компанией Tesla. Он был впервые представлен на мероприятии AI Day 19 августа 2021 года. Рабочие прототипы робота показали 30 сентября 2022 года. Ожидается, что в продажу робот поступит уже в 2026 году.

На ежегодном собрании акционеров Tesla 2025 года в четверг была представлена уточняющая информация о гуманоидном роботе Optimus. Видеоролик, показанный во время мероприятия, впервые наглядно показал сотрудников Tesla на «производственной линии прототипов», работающих над различными компонентами и собирающих роботов. Пилотная производственная линия Optimus в настоящее время работает на нашем заводе во Фримонте. Значительно более крупная производственная линия Gen 3 появится в 2026 году. Мы также проводим испытания на наших заводах и в офисных помещениях для использования в режиме реального времени. Наша цель — себестоимость продукции в размере 20 тыс. долларов США на робота при масштабировании. Tesla Tesla Однако руководитель проекта по искусственному интеллекту Джулиан Ибарц добавил: «Просто для ясности: это наш прототип производственной линии, который мы используем сегодня для текущих исследований и разработок. Настоящая масштабируемая производственная линия, которая заработает в следующем году, будет не просто больше, она будет совершенно другой». Илон Маск назвал то, что он считает тремя главными трудностями проекта: проектирование кисти и предплечья, разработка «реального искусственного интеллекта» и масштабное производство. Ранее он называл кисть «самой большой электромеханической проблемой» и отмечал, что «огромная» сложность производства обусловлена «отсутствующей» цепочкой поставок. Илон Маск заявил, что Optimus — это единственный способ избавиться от нищеты и предоставить всем качественную медицинскую помощь.

Новое видео, появившееся на демонстрации Tesla в Майами в минувшие Ð²Ñ‹Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð½Ñ‹Ðµ, показывает, как человекоподобный робот Optimus неприятно упал. Но не само падение вызывает удивление, а специфические движения рук робота по пути вниз, которые убедительно предполагают, что он имитировал действия оператора, Ð»Ð¸Ñ Ð¾Ñ€Ð°Ð´Ð¾Ñ‡Ð½Ð¾ снимающего VR-шлем. Человекоподобные роботы сейчас на пике популярности. Вливаются миллиарды инвестиций, а Илон Маск утверждает, что это будет триллионный продукт для Tesla, оправдывающий ее сумасшедшую оценку. Идея заключалась в том, что с появлением искусственного интеллекта роботы в человеческой форме смогут использовать новый обобщенный искусственный интеллект для замены людей во все большем количестве задач. Однако по-прежнему существует множество ÑÐµÑ€ÑŒÐµÐ·Ð½Ñ‹Ñ Ð¿Ñ€Ð¾Ð±Ð»ÐµÐ¼, как ÑÑ‚Ð¸Ñ‡ÐµÑÐºÐ¸Ñ , так и Ñ‚ÐµÑ Ð½Ð¾Ð»Ð¾Ð³Ð¸Ñ‡ÐµÑÐºÐ¸Ñ . Ð¢ÐµÑ Ð½Ð¾Ð»Ð¾Ð³Ð¸Ñ‡ÐµÑÐºÐ¸, большинство демонстраций Ñ‡ÐµÐ»Ð¾Ð²ÐµÐºÐ¾Ð¿Ð¾Ð´Ð¾Ð±Ð½Ñ‹Ñ Ñ€Ð¾Ð±Ð¾Ñ‚Ð¾Ð² полагались на удаленное управление операторами-людьми — что указывает на ÑÐ¾Ñ Ñ€Ð°Ð½ÑÑŽÑ‰Ð¸Ð¹ÑÑ разрыв между программным и аппаратным обеспечением. Мы обсуждали, как роботы на мероприятии «Мы, роботы» были под сильным телеуправлением, несмотря на то, что Tesla явно не раскрывала этот факт публике. Это было более года назад, и, несмотря на заявления Tesla о Â«Ð´ÐµÐ¼Ð¾Ð½ÑÑ‚Ñ€Ð°Ñ†Ð¸ÑÑ Ð˜Ð˜Â» Optimus с Ñ‚ÐµÑ Ð¿Ð¾Ñ€, Ð¿Ð¾Ñ Ð¾Ð¶Ðµ, компания по-прежнему полагается на телеоперацию для управления ими во время демонстраций. В минувшие Ð²Ñ‹Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð½Ñ‹Ðµ Tesla провела мероприятие под названием «Autonomy Visualized» в своем магазине в Майами. Целью было продемонстрировать Â«Ñ‚ÐµÑ Ð½Ð¾Ð»Ð¾Ð³Ð¸ÑŽ Autopilot и Optimus» от Tesla. Однако на мероприятии Tesla по «автономности» не было ничего «автономного». Многие поклонники Tesla видели, как они публиковали видео, на ÐºÐ¾Ñ‚Ð¾Ñ€Ñ‹Ñ Ñ€Ð¾Ð±Ð¾Ñ‚ Tesla Optimus раздает бутылки с водой на мероприятии. Он также позировал для фотографий и танцевал. На Reddit кто-то опубликовал другое видео с демонстрации: Как вы можете видеть, Tesla Optimus слишком быстро двигал руками, из-за чего несколько бутылок с водой упали на землю. Затем он теряет равновесие и начинает падать назад. Но самое интересное то, что непосредственно перед падением назад обе его руки мгновенно взлетают к «лицу» с отчетливым Ñ Ð²Ð°Ñ‚Ð°Ñ‚ÐµÐ»ÑŒÐ½Ñ‹Ð¼ движением, как будто снимая объект с головы. Робот, конечно, ничего на голове не носит. Это движение мгновенно узнаваемо любому, кто использовал VR или видел установки телеоперации. ÐŸÐ¾Ñ Ð¾Ð¶Ðµ, что оператор-человек, вероятно, Ð½Ð°Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð¸Ð²ÑˆÐ¸Ð¹ÑÑ за кулисами или в удаленном помещении, снял свой шлем в середине управления роботом по неизвестным причинам. Optimus точно воспроизвел движение снятия несуществующего шлема, когда он Ñ€ÑƒÑ Ð½ÑƒÐ» на пол. Вот как Tesla обучала Optimus с помощью VR-шлемов в своей лаборатории: Это неловко, но не только потому, что робот упал. Роботы падают; это часть процесса НИОКР. Видео с неудачами Boston Dynamics легендарны, и они никогда не подрывали доверие к компании. Проблема здесь в моменте «Волшебника страны Оз». Специфическое движение снятия «фантомного шлема» разрушает иллюзию автономии, которую Tesla так старается поддерживать. Даже недавно Маск отвергал мнение о том, что Tesla полагается на телеоперацию для демонстраций Optimus. Он уточнил, что новая демонстрация Optimus, выполняющего кунг-фу, была «ИИ, а не телеуправляемой»: Маск снова сказал на последнем отчете Tesla о Ð¿Ñ€Ð¸Ð±Ñ‹Ð»ÑÑ Ð² октябре: «Optimus был на премьере «Трона», делая кунг-фу, просто на виду, с Джаредом Лето. Никто им не управлял. Он просто делал кунг-фу с Джаредом Лето на премьере «Трона». Вы можете увидеть видео онлайн. Смешно то, что многие люди Ð¿Ñ€Ð¾Ñ Ð¾Ð´Ð¸Ð»Ð¸ мимо, думая, что это просто человек». Маск продолжает говорить акционерам, что Optimus будет самым большим продуктом в истории, и что миллионы единиц скоро будут работать на Ð·Ð°Ð²Ð¾Ð´Ð°Ñ . Но если сейчас они по-прежнему полагаются на телеоперацию 1:1 для раздачи бутылок с водой, то кажется, что до полезного обобщенного робота Optimus нам еще далеко. © Electrek.ru

Компания Tesla показала человекоподобного робота Optimus 2, который стал развитием представленного весной 2023 году андроида Optimus Gen 1. Как заявляет американская технологическая компания, помимо переработанного дизайна робот получил ряд технических новинок. Optimus Gen 2 оснащен приводами и датчиками, разработанными Tesla. Шея с шарнирно-сочлененным механизмом получила 2 степени свободы, руки имеют уже 11 степеней свободы. Руки отличаются большей точностью и аккуратностью в работе, что позволяет им управляться с хрупкими предметами вроде куриных яиц — благодаря встроенным в пальцы тактильным датчикам. Заявлено, что обновленный андроид стал на 10 кг легче, скорость его передвижения выросла на 30%, а имитация работы пальцев ног улучшила баланс робота и дала ему возможность выполнять сложные движения вроде приседаний и танцев. О сроках появления серийного Tesla Optimus компания не сообщает.

Tesla’nın insansı robot projesi Optimus, önemli yapısal ve operasyonel sorunlar nedeniyle beklenmedik bir duraklamaya girdi. Şirketin daha önce bu yıl içerisinde 5.000 ila 10.000 adet robot üretmeyi planladığı proje, yeni bir tasarım aşamasına geçilmesi ve sahada istenen performansın yakalanamaması nedeniyle en az iki ay gecikmeye uğrayacak. Optimus programındaki bu gecikme, programdan sorumlu kıdemli başkan yardımcısı Milan Kovac’ın şirketten ayrılmasından kısa bir süre sonra ortaya çıktı. Kovac’ın görevini, aynı zamanda Tesla’nın otonom sürüş projelerinden sorumlu olan Ashok Elluswamy devraldı. Üretimin ertelenmesinin arkasında sadece yönetim değişikliği değil, aynı zamanda robotun donanımsal açıdan yaşadığı problemler de bulunuyor. Eklem motorlarında aşırı ısınma, ellerde düşük taşıma kapasitesi, şanzıman parçalarının kısa ömrü ve sınırlı pil performansı gibi sorunların üretim planlarını doğrudan etkilediği bildiriliyor. Tesla, şu anda bu sorunları çözmek için çeşitli robot eli tasarımlarını test ediyor ve üç farklı teknik yaklaşımı değerlendiriyor. Şirketin robotun yazılım tarafında da sentetik veri kullanımıyla daha karmaşık görevlerde başarı oranını artırmaya çalıştığı ifade ediliyor. Yılın başında 1.000’den fazla Optimus robotu için parça temin eden şirket, bu sayıda üretimi gerçekleştirmiş olsa da, üretilen robotların şu anda yalnızca Tesla’nın batarya atölyelerinde sınırlı görevlerde kullanıldığı belirtiliyor. Bu robotların verimliliği ise insan işçilerin yarısının dahi gerisinde kalıyor. Tedarik zincirine yakın kaynaklar, Tesla’nın siparişleri resmen iptal etmediğini ancak tasarım değişiklikleri tamamlanmadan yeni üretim için parça siparişi geçmeyeceğini aktarıyor. Bu durum, şirketin yıl boyunca Optimus üretimiyle ilgili verdiği hedefleri revize etmesine neden olabilir. Öte yandan Tesla’nın Optimus programından vazgeçmesi beklenmiyor. Şirketin bu yılki hissedarlar toplantısında yeni nesil robotları sahneye çıkarabileceği ifade ediliyor. Peki siz bu konu hakkında ne düşünüyorsunuz?

Корпорация Tesla остановила производство роботов Optimus из-за проблем. Как передает Day.Az, об этом сообщает издание The Information. В марте глава компании Илон Маск заявлял, что сможет выпустить 5000 единиц роботов к концу 2025 года. Источники рассказали, что Tesla не сможет достичь амбициозной цели и пересмотрела свои планы. Более того - вероятно, в этом году фирма больше не выпустит ни одного робота. Проблема заключается в манипуляторах, которых не хватает для выпуска машин. Специалисты объяснили, что роботизированные руки - самая технически сложная деталь гуманоидов Tesla. Существуют проблемы с предплечьями, которые не устраивают инженеров. Также разработка Optimus приостановилась из-за того, что создатель робота Милан Ковач в июне покинул корпорацию Маска. Источники The Information рассказали, что сотрудники Tesla в частных беседах начинают сомневаться, нужен ли компании человекоподобный робот, так как технические сложности и трудозатраты при его разработке огромны. Однако часть произведенных машин уже используют на заводах - так, гуманоиды сортируют аккумуляторы для электромобилей. Заметили ошибку в тексте?

Published on By Elon Musk has announced that the Tesla Model Y has become the world’s best-selling car by volume for the third consecutive year, capping 2025 with another dominant performance. The Model Y has now established an impressive streak that would otherwise have been impossible before Tesla. Three years in a row Musk posted on X: “Tesla Model Y is now officially the world’s best-selling car for the third year in a row!” The CEO’s comment echoed an update that Tesla included in its 2025 recap, which highlighted, among other things, the Model Y’s incredible streak. The Model Y has held the title since 2023, outperforming traditional leaders like the Toyota RAV4 and Corolla thanks to its bang-for-the-buck nature and its stellar combination of practicality, performance, and tech. The Model Y is also lauded as one of the safest vehicles on the road, making it an ideal choice for families in key markets such as China.

Tesla has one of the most extensive real-world AI neural networks in the world, used to control its self-driving autonomous vehicles. Elon Musk has stated in the past that this neural engine can be used to operate humanoid robots and fulfil the day-to-day tasks that humans don't want to engage in, a project which Tesla calls Optimus. At the 2022 Tesla AI day, Musk unveiled the robot and although the movements are clunky, awkward and slow, the engineering is not the focal point of the presentation. It was intended to show the AI capabilities of the bot and give an idea of what could be achieved in the future. In the past, Musk has voiced his hesitation regarding AI and its inherent dangers, yet in this case he seems to be the one pushing for the technology. More in this article from Bloomberg. – Ross Sinclair By Dana Hull and Sean O'Kane (Bloomberg) –Elon Musk showed off a prototype humanoid robot walking and waving its hand, seeking to demonstrate Tesla Inc.'s advances in artificial intelligence. At the electric automaker's AI Day late Friday, Musk also showed a video of the robot picking up boxes and moving through a rendered office building to water plants. "The robot can actually do a lot more than we just showed you," said Musk. "We just didn't want it to fall on its face." A second robot — the latest iteration of what Tesla calls Optimus — also appeared on stage. Musk said that while Optimus wasn't quite ready to walk, it has opposable thumbs and can perform tasks. "Our goal is to make a useful humanoid robot as quickly as possible," said Musk. "Optimus is designed to be an extremely capable robot made in very high volume, probably ultimately millions of units, and is expected to cost much less than a car." The event, held at a Tesla facility in Palo Alto, California, featured several engineers giving highly technical presentations about how the robot perceives its environment. The technology that Tesla has developed for its vehicles, including cameras, is now being used for the robot. Musk, who was tweeting during his employees' presentations, said near the end of the three-hour event that he was "excited to see what Optimus will become." Musk added Tesla plans to test the robot at its factory in Fremont, California, where the videos of it operating were filmed. But he admitted the robot is "not strictly speaking in line with" Tesla's goal of accelerating the adoption of sustainable energy. "I'm not sure where it ends up," he said. Musk also said Tesla is "probably not barking up the right tree on on all the technical solutions," and reminded the audience the company is "open to evolving" those solutions it has already arrived at. Beyond the robot, Tesla used the event to expand on the progress it has made developing its automated driving software, and the "Dojo" supercomputer that the company uses to train its in-house artificial intelligence. Musk said Tesla may some day allow other companies to pay to use Dojo to train their own neural networks.

Die Pläne Teslas, noch 2025 Tausende humanoide Optimus Roboter herzustellen, sind geplatzt. Probleme mit den Händen machen Designverbesserungen nötig. (Bild: Tesla/Screenshot) This article is also available in English. It was translated with technical assistance and editorially reviewed before publication. Don’t show this again. Tesla weicht von seinem Ziel ab, noch 2025 mindestens 5000 humanoide Optimus Bot herzustellen. Das berichtete das US-Tech-Magazin The Information am Dienstag. Designänderungen und technische Probleme machen dem ambitionierten Ziel offenbar einen Strich durch die Rechnung. Ursprünglich sollten 2025 mindestens 5000 Optimus Roboter von Tesla produziert werden. Noch im März sagte Tesla-Chef Elon Musk auf einer Mitarbeiterversammlung, diese Anzahl humanoider Roboter bauen zu wollen. Doch diese Steigerung von einigen wenigen Dutzend Optimus Bot im Jahr 2024 auf mindestens 5000 im laufenden Jahr sei zu ambitioniert, sodass das Unternehmen das Produktionsziel derzeit auf 2000 gesenkt habe, berichtet The Information. Allerdings scheint auch dieses Ziel mittlerweile gefährdet zu sein. Die Hände des Roboters, der technisch anspruchsvollste Teil der Konstruktion, verursachten Probleme und führten zu Verzögerungen. Designänderungen, besonders an den Händen, aber auch an den Unterarmen, sollten die Konstruktion der dritten Version des Optimus Bot verbessern. Aktuell ist die Version 2.5. Tausende Roboter können so in diesem Jahr nicht mehr produziert werden. Derzeit werden die Hände überarbeitet und weitere Designverbesserungen, etwa an den Unterarmen, vorgenommen, berichtet The Information. Unklar ist, wie dort der aktuelle Stand ist. Die Verzögerungen ergeben sich jedoch nicht nur aus der anspruchsvollen Konstruktion der Hände. Auch der Abgang von Milan Kovac, ehemals Leiter der Technikabteilung für Roboter bei Tesla, im Juni habe eine Lücke hinterlassen. Das Hardware-Design liegt seitdem in den Händen von Konstantin Laskaris, für die Software ist Ashok Elluswamy verantwortlich. Videos by heise Hinter vorgehaltener Hand stellen Tesla-Mitarbeiter laut The Information mittlerweile die Frage, ob es überhaupt sinnvoll ist, komplexe humanoide Roboter zu bauen, um sie in der Fertigung einzusetzen. Die technischen Hürden und der Aufwand dafür seien hoch. So ist etwa das Training der Roboter aufwendig. Dazu müssen oft erst spezielle Videos für das Training von Fertigkeiten erstellt werden. Tesla nutzt derzeit seine eigenen Mitarbeiter dafür. Perspektivisch hofft Tesla, frei verfügbare Videos im Internet nutzen zu können, um seinem humanoiden Roboter alle nur erdenklichen Aufgaben antrainieren zu können. Momentan sind die Aufgaben der Optimus Bots noch eher einfacher Natur: Bei Tesla sortieren sie etwa Batterien. Außerdem führen sie Kontrollgänge in den Fabriken durch. (olb) Keine News verpassen!

Die Zukunft von Tesla liege in Robotern und Robotaxis, verkündet Elon Musk. In Berlin zeigte Tesla einen Optimus-Roboter in Aktion - auch wenn es länger dauern dürfte, bis er im Alltag auftaucht. Tesla hat seinen humanoiden Roboter mit dem Namen Optimus dem Publikum in Berlin vorgeführt. Auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt im Einkaufscenter LP12 gab die Maschine Popcorn aus. Der Roboter griff kleine Popcorn-Boxen, füllte sie auf und überreichte sie den Besuchern. Am Stand bildete sich eine lange Schlange. Wie bei anderen ähnlichen Demonstrationen von Tesla blieb unklar, inwieweit Optimus dabei autonom agierte oder zumindest teilweise ferngesteuert wurde. Zukunft in Robotern Während die Verkäufe von Teslas Elektroautos in diesem Jahr erneut sinken dürften, verkündet Konzernchef Elon Musk, dass die Zukunft der Firma in selbstfahrenden Robotaxis und menschenähnlichen Robotern liegen werde. So beharrt Musk darauf, dass die Optimus-Roboter des Konzerns das Potenzial hätten, zum "größten Produkt aller Zeiten" zu werden. Die für kommendes Jahr in Aussicht gestellte Version 3 werde sich so flüssig bewegen, dass sie «wie ein Mensch in einem Roboter-Kostüm» wirken werde, sagte er etwa im Oktober. Optimus als Chirurg? Musk sagt auch voraus, dass es auf der Welt mehr Roboter als Menschen geben werde. Selbstfahrende Autos und Roboter würden eine "Welt ohne Armut" herbeiführen, in der jeder Zugang zu bester medizinischer Versorgung habe. Denn: "Optimus wird ein unglaublicher Chirurg sein", verkündete Musk. Er hoffe, die Produktion der Roboter bis Ende kommenden Jahres zu starten. Berichten zufolge werden die Roboter bei solchen Demonstrationen teilweise ferngesteuert. So sorgte jüngst im Netz ein Video für Aufsehen, in dem ein Optimus-Roboter bei einem Event in Miami wie ein Brett nach hinten umkippt. Vor dem Fall hebt er aber beide Arme zu Kopf und seine Bewegung legt nahe, dass ein Mensch, der ihn aus der Ferne steuerte, eine 3D-Brille abnahm. Tesla äußerte sich nicht dazu. Umkämpfte Zukunftsmärkte Sowohl bei selbstfahrenden Taxis als auch bei Robotern trifft Tesla auf viel Konkurrenz. So forschen viele chinesische Unternehmen an Robotern und US-Firmen wie Agility Robotics und Figure AI arbeiten daran, die Maschinen in der Industrie einzusetzen. So erfüllten Roboter von Figure AI testweise ein halbes Jahr Aufgaben im US-Werk von BMW in Spartanburg. Beim autonomen Fahren ist unterdessen die Google-Schwesterfirma Waymo führend. Sie hat in verschiedenen US-Städten mehr als 2.500 fahrerlose Fahrzeuge im Einsatz, während Tesla bisher auf einige Dutzend Wagen in der texanischen Stadt Austin mit einem Aufpasser im Beifahrersitz kommt.

Компания Tesla временно приостановила массовое производство гуманоидных роботов Optimus из-за сложностей с конструкцией рук. Об этом сообщает The Information. Отмечается, что инженеры не могут достичь необходимой гибкости и сходства с человеческими руками, что заставило компанию скорректировать планы. На складах Tesla уже накоплено десятки корпусов Optimus без рук и предплечий, и пока неизвестно, когда эти роботы будут завершены. Илон Маск подтвердил проблему, но не сообщил конкретных сроков запуска. Как известно, первые трудности были выявлены еще летом 2024 года, после чего компания значительно снизила первоначальные производственные цели. Изначально Tesla планировала выпустить не менее 5000 роботов до конца 2025 года, но инженеры заявили, что задача нереальна. После внутреннего сопротивления план сократили до 2000 единиц. Маск подчеркивает, что создание рук с человеческой ловкостью - самая сложная часть разработки. Недавно он поделился видео, где Optimus обучается кунг-фу, а официальный аккаунт Tesla показал, как робот повторяет движения вместе с актером Джаредом Лето на премьере фильма Tron: Ares. Tried to start a fight at the Tron: Ares premiere pic.twitter.com/TvWCOaXIlN Optimus был представлен в августе 2021 года как универсальный двуногий робот, способный выполнять задачи, опасные или утомительные для людей. Однако некоторые бывшие участники проекта сомневаются в его пригодности для использования на складах или в производстве. Тем не менее, Илон Маск считает Optimus ключевым проектом Tesla на будущее. Напомним, Tesla представила своего робота-гуманоида второго поколения Optimus Gen 2, который должен выполнять некоторые задачи, которые обычно выполняют люди. Как сообщалось, в 2026 году Tesla надеется запустить роботов Optimus в крупное производство для других компаний.

Çinli kaynaklara göre Tesla yaklaşık bir buçuk ay önce Optimus için parça alımını durdurdu. Şirket, hem robotun donanımını hem de yazılımını yeniden gözden geçiriyor. Bu sebeple üretim de durdurulmuş durumda. Tesla, bu yıl 5.000 adet Optimus üretmeyi hedefliyordu ama şimdiye kadar yalnızca 1.000 civarında üretim yapılabildi. Parça tedarikinin durmasıyla bu hedefin artık pek mümkün görünmediği ifade ediliyor. Haziran başında Optimus projesinin başındaki Milan Kovac, Tesla’dan ayrılmıştı. Onun yerine Tesla’nın yapay zekâ yazılımı başkanı Ashok Elluswamy geldi. Bu değişimle birlikte seri üretime geçmeden önce robotun tasarımı daha da geliştirilecek ve üretim peşi sıra başlatılacak. Optimus’un bazı teknik sorunları da var. Şu anda motorlar fazla ısınıyor, elleri yeterince güçlü değil, bazı parçalar çabuk bozuluyor ve pil ömrü kısa. Tesla bu sebeple şu an farklı tedarikçilerden gelen örnekleri test ediyor. Geçen yıl tanıtılan robotlar şov yapmış olsa da hareketlerin çoğu uzaktan kontrolle gerçekleşmişti. Şu anda Optimus sadece Tesla’nın batarya atölyelerinde basit taşıma işleri yapıyor ve performansı henüz insan işçilerin yakınına bile yaklaşamıyor. Elon Musk’ın iddialı planı ise hâlâ geçerli. Önümüzdeki yıl 50 bin, 2029’da ise 500 bin Optimus üretmeyi hedefliyor. Bu hedef şu anki durumla kıyaslanınca gülünç gelebilir ama Elon Musk'ın daha önce açıklandığı 1 milyonluk üretim planının aşağı çekilmiş hâli olduğunu da belirtelim. Tüm bu gelişmelerin ardından Tesla’nın bu yılki hissedarlar toplantısında Optimus’un yeni versiyonunu tanıtarak hem yatırımcıları hem de ortaklarını rahatlatmayı hedeflediği söyleniyor ama işleri toparlamak pek kolay olmayacak. Bu içerikler de ilginizi çekebilir:

Whispers of Control: The Alarming Vulnerability of Humanoid Robots to Voice Hijacking In the rapidly advancing field of robotics, where humanoid machines are increasingly integrated into daily life, a startling demonstration has exposed a critical security flaw. Researchers from the cybersecurity group DARKNAVY, based in China, recently showcased how certain humanoid robots can be compromised using nothing more than spoken commands. This revelation, detailed in a report from Interesting Engineering, highlights vulnerabilities in AI-driven control systems that allow hackers to seize control with whispered instructions, potentially turning these robots into tools for disruption or worse. The experiment, conducted during Shanghai’s GEEKCon, involved white-hat hackers testing commercially available robots from manufacturers like Unitree. By exploiting flaws in voice recognition and wireless communication protocols, the team demonstrated how a single command could override the robot’s programming. Once hijacked, the infected robot could then propagate the attack to nearby units via Bluetooth or other short-range networks, forming what experts describe as physical botnets. This cascading effect raises profound concerns for industries relying on robotic systems, from manufacturing to healthcare. According to accounts shared on platforms like X, the demonstration has sparked widespread alarm among technology professionals. Posts from users in the cybersecurity community emphasize the ease of these exploits, with one noting how inaudible audio signals—frequencies between 16 and 22 kHz—can deliver commands beyond human hearing, echoing earlier research on voice assistants like Alexa and Siri. Such tactics, now adapted to physical robots, underscore a broader pattern of vulnerabilities in AI-infused devices. Emerging Threats in Robotic Security Building on this, a story from Slashdot recounts how the DARKNAVY team compromised robots in mere minutes. The hackers used voice commands to inject malicious instructions, bypassing safety protocols and enabling the robots to perform unauthorized actions. This isn’t isolated; similar weaknesses have been identified in robots powered by large language models (LLMs), where prompt injection attacks can trick the AI into harmful behaviors, as explored in a WIRED article from last year. The implications extend beyond individual machines. In the Mashable coverage of the event, it’s noted that a hacked robot can “infect” others in proximity, creating networks of compromised devices. This mirrors digital botnets but in physical form, as discussed in an interview with The Register, where experts warn of risks akin to those in science fiction narratives. For industry insiders, this means reevaluating supply chains, especially with many robots originating from Chinese manufacturers, which could introduce geopolitical tensions into technology deployments. Recent news from WebProNews further elaborates on the GEEKCon findings, revealing that these vulnerabilities allow for stealthy hijacking, potentially turning robots into surveillance tools or disruptors in critical infrastructure. The report stresses the need for robust defenses, pointing out how current systems lack adequate isolation between voice inputs and core controls, making them susceptible to adaptive attacks. Lessons from Past AI Vulnerabilities Delving deeper, the parallels to LLM security issues are striking. Research shared on X highlights how prompt injection attacks in language models can hijack tool usage and leak data, with proposed design patterns aiming to restrict untrusted inputs. A paper from SingularityNET introduces PICO, a transformer architecture designed to prevent such injections, ensuring secure response generation. These concepts could be adapted to robotic systems, where voice commands act as prompts to AI controllers. Moreover, older posts on X reference inaudible command delivery to virtual assistants, a technique now evolving for physical robots. This evolution is evident in a joint paper from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind, which evaluates the fragility of LLM safety defenses, finding them easily bypassed by adaptive methods. For robots, this translates to scenarios where seemingly harmless spoken phrases could embed malicious intent, weakening guardrails over time. Anthropic’s research on chain-of-thought reasoning further illustrates the problem: wrapping harmful requests in extended, innocuous dialogues can erode a model’s resistance, leading to compliance with dangerous commands. Applied to robots, this could mean gradual manipulation through conversation, turning a helpful assistant into a liability. Industry Responses and Mitigation Strategies In response to these revelations, manufacturers are scrambling to address the gaps. Unitree, implicated in the demonstrations, has not publicly detailed patches, but industry sources suggest firmware updates are in development to enhance voice authentication and encrypt wireless communications. Experts recommend multi-factor verification for commands, such as combining voice with visual or biometric cues, to prevent unauthorized access. Broader discussions on X and in outlets like The Hacker News bulletin point to a weekly roundup of threats, including AI exploits and stealth loaders, emphasizing the need for ongoing vigilance. For sectors like transportation and power grids, where robots might handle sensitive tasks, these vulnerabilities could lead to catastrophic failures if exploited maliciously. Policymakers are also taking note. While no specific regulations have emerged from this incident, calls for international standards on robotic security are growing. Comparisons to past cyber incidents, such as ransomware attacks on digital infrastructure, highlight the urgency. As one X post from a technology news account puts it, these findings expose “serious security flaws” that could hijack robots en masse, demanding immediate action from developers. Technological Underpinnings of the Exploits At the core of these vulnerabilities lie the integration of AI models that process natural language inputs without sufficient safeguards. Robots equipped with LLMs interpret spoken commands much like chatbots, but unlike software confined to digital realms, these machines interact physically with the environment. The DARKNAVY demo, as reported in StartupNews.fyi, showed how a whispered command could initiate a takeover, leveraging flaws in audio processing algorithms that fail to distinguish between legitimate and adversarial inputs. This issue is compounded by wireless propagation. Once compromised, a robot broadcasts the hack to others, creating a chain reaction. FindArticles.com describes this as using robots as “vessels for broadcast by spoken commands,” passing infections via proximity-based networks. Such mechanisms echo malware spread in computer systems but with tangible, real-world consequences, like a robot arm malfunctioning in a factory or a service bot causing harm in a hospital. Historical context from WIRED’s coverage of LLM-infused robots reveals that researchers have long tricked these systems into violent acts through clever prompting. The recent Chinese tests build on this, demonstrating scalability: a single entry point can compromise an entire fleet, raising alarms for global supply chains dependent on interconnected robotic ecosystems. Future Safeguards and Ethical Considerations To counter these risks, innovators are exploring advanced architectures. For instance, isolating prompt processing in secure modules, as suggested in research on X, could limit the impact of injections. Additionally, incorporating anomaly detection in voice recognition—flagging unusual frequencies or patterns—might thwart inaudible attacks, drawing from studies on virtual assistants. Ethically, the deployment of such robots demands transparency. Manufacturers must disclose vulnerabilities and collaborate on open-source security tools, fostering a community-driven approach to resilience. As seen in The Register’s interview, ignoring these lessons from sci-fi could lead to real-world dystopias, where hacked robots disrupt societies. Industry insiders advocate for red-teaming exercises, simulating attacks to uncover weaknesses before deployment. This proactive stance, combined with regulatory oversight, could mitigate threats, ensuring that the promise of humanoid robots isn’t overshadowed by security pitfalls. Global Implications for Critical Sectors The geopolitical angle cannot be ignored. With many vulnerable robots produced in China, as highlighted in WebProNews, dependencies on foreign tech introduce risks for Western infrastructures. Scenarios of state-sponsored hijackings, while speculative, underscore the need for diversified sourcing and domestic innovation in robotics. In healthcare, where robots assist in surgeries or patient care, a voice-induced malfunction could be life-threatening. Transportation sectors face similar perils, with automated systems potentially derailed by whispered commands. Power grid operators, already wary of cyber threats, now must contend with physical embodiments of those risks. Recent X sentiment reflects growing concern, with posts urging awareness of these “botnets in physical form.” As technology evolves, balancing innovation with security will define the trajectory of humanoid robotics, demanding concerted efforts from all stakeholders. Pathways to Robust Robotic Ecosystems Ultimately, addressing these vulnerabilities requires a multifaceted strategy. Enhancing AI training to recognize adversarial inputs, as explored in the joint LLM paper, is a start. Coupling this with hardware-level protections, like tamper-resistant voice modules, could fortify defenses. Collaboration across borders is essential. Initiatives like those from SingularityNET point to architectural innovations that prevent injections, adaptable to robotic contexts. By prioritizing security in design phases, the industry can prevent exploits from undermining trust. As demonstrations like DARKNAVY’s continue to surface, they serve as wake-up calls, pushing for a more secure integration of AI and robotics. The whispers that control these machines today could echo into broader disruptions tomorrow, but with informed action, the field can advance safely.

But throughout it all, we have those we love most, and that's real and that alone is worth dying for, as Greyhaven eloquently describe throughout, "Cemetery Sun." Greyhaven explain of the new track that "the message is 'I love you so much that if I had to, I would totally obliterate myself for you to shine.' I had watched Nosferatu, but 'Cemetery Sun' is the opposite of what a vampire does. I'd willingly not drain your life, because I know how draining I can be." Composed of Brent Mills on vocals, Nick Spencer on guitar, Johnny Muench on bass, and Ethan Spray on drums, Greyhaven are gearing up to release their upcoming record, Keep It Quiet, via Solid State Records on October 10th. Keep It Quiet is due to be the band's third release, following their debut LP Empty Black in 2018 and their sophomore record This Bright and Beautiful World in 2022. Their newest venture was produced by Will Putney (Body Count, Bad Omens, Knocked Loose). The album is available for pre-order here – and you can check out the tracklist below – and after the release date, Greyhaven will kick off their North American tour in mid-November.

Figure 03, robot hình người của công ty Figure AI, thể hiện khả năng xuất phát nhanh, chuyển hướng mượt mà và phanh gấp khi chạy trong một khu nhà. Brett Adcock, CEO công ty Figure AI, hôm 5/12 đăng lên mạng xã hội video ngắn hé lộ sự nhanh nhẹn ấn tượng của Figure 03. Adcock cho biết, bộ điều khiển của robot vận hành nhờ mạng neuron tích hợp do nhóm Helix phát triển. Helix là mô hình Thị giác - Ngôn ngữ - Hành động (VLA) tổng quát được Figure AI công bố hồi tháng 2. Robot hình người Figure 03 chạy, đổi hướng và phanh gấp. Video: Instagram/Brett Adcock Những chuyển động của Figure 03 trong video mới thách thức quan niệm phổ biến rằng robot hình người đa năng chậm chạp và nặng nề. Suốt nhiều năm, điểm yếu của chúng là không có khả năng di chuyển nhanh. Nhiều nhà sản xuất không công bố tốc độ đi bộ tối đa vì con số này thường không ấn tượng. Tốc độ của Figure 03 theo công bố trước đó là khoảng 4,3 km/h. Các robot cạnh tranh như Digit của Agility Robotics hay Phoenix của Sanctuary AI có tốc độ đi bộ tối đa trong khoảng 4,8-6,5 km/h. Trong đoạn clip mới, Adcock cho biết Figure 03 di chuyển với tốc độ tương đương người chạy, khoảng 10,5 km/h. Điều ấn tượng là có lúc robot nhấc cả hai chân lên khỏi mặt đất, đúng theo định nghĩa về chạy, cho thấy khả năng giữ ổn định đặc biệt tốt. Ngoài ra, robot cũng có thể giảm tốc và đổi hướng nhanh chóng, thể hiện tiến bộ lớn về hệ thống điều khiển và cơ cấu truyền động mô-men xoắn cao. Vài ngày trước, Optimus, robot hình người của nhà sản xuất xe điện Tesla, cũng gây sốt khi chạy giống người với tốc độ nhanh, ước tính khoảng 13,7 km/h hay 3,8 m mỗi giây (3,8 m/s). Theo Humanoids Daily, tốc độ này tương đương những robot hình người nhanh nhất thế giới, vượt qua STAR1 của startup RobotEra (Trung Quốc) với tốc độ 3,6 m/s và H1 của Unitree (Trung Quốc) với tốc độ 3,3 m/s. Figure 03 được thiết kế để đưa vào sản xuất hàng loạt, sẵn sàng hoạt động trong gia đình và cả môi trường công nghiệp. Robot cao 173 cm, là phiên bản nâng cấp của Figure 02 với hệ thống cảm biến nhạy hơn, vẻ ngoài mềm mại và khả năng phối hợp tốt hơn. Với khối lượng nhẹ hơn 9% và thể tích giảm đáng kể so với Figure 02, robot thế hệ mới chuyển động dễ dàng hơn nhiều, đặc biệt là trong môi trường gia đình. Figure 03 sở hữu bàn tay mềm mại và linh hoạt, trang bị cảm biến đầu ngón tay giúp phát hiện áp lực cực nhẹ, chỉ 3 gram, xấp xỉ trọng lượng một chiếc kẹp giấy. Độ nhạy cao cho phép robot cầm nắm những vật dụng mỏng manh như đồ thủy tinh một cách an toàn, hạn chế việc chúng bị trượt khỏi tay. Thu Thảo (Theo Forbes, Interesting Engineering)

Jeff Bezos, Nvidia Corp. and other big technology names are investing in a business that’s developing human-like robots, according to people with knowledge of the situation, part of a scramble to find new applications for artificial intelligence. The startup Figure AI Inc. — also backed by OpenAI and Microsoft Corp. — is raising about $675 million in a funding round that carries a pre-money valuation of roughly $2 billion, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is private. Through his firm Explore Investments LLC, Bezos has committed $100 million. Microsoft is investing $95 million, while Nvidia and an Amazon.com Inc.-affiliated fund are each providing $50 million. Robots have emerged as a critical new frontier for the AI industry, letting it apply cutting-edge technology to real-world tasks. At Figure, engineers are working on a robot that looks and moves like a human. The company has said it hopes its machine, called Figure 01, will be able to perform dangerous jobs that are unsuitable for people and that its technology will help alleviate labor shortages.

Intel Corp.’s venture capital arm is pouring in $25 million, and LG Innotek is providing $8.5 million. Samsung’s investment group, meanwhile, committed $5 million. Backers also include venture firms Parkway Venture Capital, which is investing $100 million, and Align Ventures, which is providing $90 million. The ARK Venture Fund is participating as well, putting in $2.5 million, while Aliya Capital Partners is investing $20 million. Other investors include Tamarack, at $27 million; Boscolo Intervest Ltd., investing $15 million; and BOLD Capital Partners, at $2.5 million. OpenAI, which at one point considered acquiring Figure, is investing $5 million. Bloomberg News reported in January on the funding round, which kicked off with Microsoft and OpenAI as the initial lead investors. Those big names helped attract the influx of cash from the other entities. The $675 million raised is a significant increase over the $500 million initially sought by Figure. Representatives for Figure and its investors declined to comment or didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. People with knowledge of the matter expect the investors to wire the funds to Figure AI and sign formal agreements on Monday, but the numbers could change as final details are worked out. The roughly $2 billion valuation is pre-money, meaning it doesn’t account for the capital that Figure is raising. Last May, Figure raised $70 million in funding round led by Parkway. At the time, Chief Executive Officer Brett Adcock said, “We hope that we’re one of the first groups to bring to market a humanoid that can actually be useful and do commercial activities.” The AI robotics industry has been busy lately. Earlier this year, OpenAI-backed Norwegian robotics startup 1X Technologies AS raised $100 million. Vancouver-based Sanctuary AI is developing a humanoid robot called Phoenix. And Tesla Inc. is working on a robot called Optimus, with Elon Musk calling it one of his most important projects. Agility Robotics, which Amazon backed in 2022, has bots in testing at one of the retailer’s warehouses. Bezos — the world’s second-richest person, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Ranking — was Amazon’s chief executive officer until 2021 and remains chairman. His net worth is estimated at $197.1 billion. © 2025 Fortune Media IP Limited. All Rights Reserved.

March 20th Watch List A new "iPhone moment" is being hailed by the robotics industry, with a powerful era underway for manufacturing and domestic assistance. "When, literally, humanoid robots are wandering around, is not five years away, this is a few years away," Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang said this week at the GTC conference. The company, along with others, already has a lot of skin in the game, with its RTX GPUs powering bots and the firm's coming Isaac GR00T N1 serving as a generalist foundation model.Next generation: As the staple of any sci-fi movie in the past, humanoid robots are now moving closer to reality due to advances in artificial general intelligence. It's part of what is being called "embodied AI," which harnesses AI technology inside of hardware - in this case a robot that can carry out real-world functions. Up until recently, most bots relied on code to perform their tasks, which limited their applications. The promise of AI will allow them to learn new jobs by reasoning and imitation, or eventually identifying and solving situations like a human by "generalizing across common tasks.""We know very clearly that the world has severe shortages of human laborers, human workers," Huang continued. Humanoid robots never need to take a day off, can work around the clock, and are able to be used in multiple settings. That includes the workforce, like in factory environments or the assembly line, as well as the home, for tasks such as vacuuming, folding laundry, doing dishes, and even companionship.In the race: One of the biggest known players is Tesla's (TSLA) Optimus, which Elon Musk has called the "biggest product in history" with plans to produce up to 1M units by 2027 (could it help reignite the stock?). Another U.S.-based player is Brett Adcock's Figure AI, which is backed by Microsoft (MSFT) and OpenAI. The company's bots are geared toward manual labor tasks like logistics and warehousing, and have already been deployed in BMW factories. Others out there include Atlas by Boston Dynamics and Phoenix by Sanctuary AI, as well as Chinese bots like Unitree's G1, CyberOne by Xiaomi and UBTECH's Walker S1, so be on the lookout for more industry partnerships and innovation.

Siga o Olhar Digital no Google Discover A evolução dos robôs bípedes ganhou um novo capítulo após a divulgação de um vídeo que mostra o robô humanoide Figure 03, da empresa americana Figure AI, correndo em velocidade próxima à de um ser humano durante uma leve corrida. O material, divulgado pelo CEO Brett Adcock, mostra o dispositivo acelerando rapidamente, fazendo curvas suaves e até freando com precisão dentro de um ambiente fechado — sequências que desafiam a ideia comum de que esses robôs são lentos e rígidos. Segundo Adcock, o desempenho é resultado de um controlador alimentado por uma rede neural desenvolvida pela equipe Helix, que permite ao robô executar movimentos complexos com maior agilidade e estabilidade. As informações são do Interesting Engineering. Uma publicação compartilhada por Brett Adcock (@brett_adcock) A lentidão sempre foi apontada como a principal limitação dos humanoides generalistas. Modelos reconhecidos, como o Digit, da Agility Robotics, e o Phoenix, da Sanctuary AI, costumam declarar velocidades entre 3 e 4 milhas por hora. A própria Figure AI havia divulgado que o Figure 03 alcançaria cerca de 1,3 m/s (2,7 mph). No entanto, o novo vídeo revela uma performance muito superior. Relatos indicam que o robô humanoide opera entre 4 e 6 mph, faixa equivalente ao ritmo de uma corrida leve realizada por humanos. Além disso, o dispositivo aparece com ambos os pés no ar ao mesmo tempo, característica técnica que define a corrida. Esse padrão de movimento exige controle dinâmico avançado — um obstáculo que a maioria dos humanoides ainda não superou. O robô também demonstrou frenagem rápida e mudanças de direção fluidas. Segundo a empresa, a agilidade foi impulsionada pelo novo sistema de atuação de alto torque e pela inteligência da rede neural embarcada. Além do desempenho em locomoção, o Figure 03 se destaca como um robô pronto para uso comercial, projetado para aplicações domésticas e industriais. Principais atributos do modelo: A empresa afirma que os atuadores do Figure 03 operam duas vezes mais rápido, mantendo torque mais denso — característica que aumenta a velocidade de tarefas como pegar e posicionar objetos. Leia mais: O avanço coloca o robô humanoide como um dos mais promissores da categoria, em um momento em que a Tesla e outras concorrentes também anunciam melhorias significativas em velocidade e agilidade. A corrida por robôs capazes de atuar no mundo real, com movimentos rápidos e alta precisão, está oficialmente acirrada.

Aunque durante décadas fueron patrimonio exclusivo de la ciencia ficción, los robots humanoides ya son una realidad tangible. Caminan, hablan, manipulan objetos y, en algunos casos, incluso cocinan, juegan al fútbol o doblan ropa. Un artículo publicado en Forbes reúne diez de los modelos más avanzados del momento, desarrollados por gigantes tecnológicos como Tesla, Boston Dynamics o startups emergentes como Figure AI y 1X Technologies. Según un reciente informe de Morgan Stanley, para 2035 habrá 13 millones de robots humanoides conviviendo con los humanos, y esa cifra podría escalar a mil millones para 2050. Sin embargo, esa revolución ya empezó: muchos de estos robots se encuentran actualmente en fase de prueba o incluso trabajando en entornos industriales y domésticos. Fabricante: Tesla Costo: Se proyecta entre USD 20.000 y USD 30.000 Anunciado en 2023, el Optimus de segunda generación ya fue probado en las fábricas de Tesla. De acuerdo con Elon Musk, podría ser más importante que sus autos en el futuro. Según Bernard Marr, experto en tecnología empresarial, el modelo está construido alrededor del mismo marco de automatización que los autos, con sistemas de motores, baterías, navegación e inteligencia artificial interconectados. Aunque se lo ha visto recogiendo huevos, bailando y jugando a Piedra, Papel o Tijera con Kim Kardashian, hay dudas sobre si algunas de estas demostraciones son impulsadas por IA o control remoto. Fabricante: Boston Dynamics Costo: No disponible comercialmente Famoso por sus videos virales en YouTube, el nuevo Atlas es completamente eléctrico y más liviano que sus versiones anteriores. Esta evolución permite movimientos más precisos y resistentes a daños. Aunque no está disponible comercialmente, sigue siendo uno de los referentes más populares de la robótica humanoide. Fabricante: 1X Technologies Costo: Se proyecta entre USD 20.000 y USD 30.000 Con una estructura recubierta en tela de nailon y actuadores por tendones, Neo Gamma fue diseñado para convivir con humanos. Puede doblar ropa, aspirar o cargar el lavavajillas, y mantener conversaciones gracias a un modelo de lenguaje propio desarrollado por OpenAI. Su diseño apunta al confort y la seguridad en el hogar. Fabricante: Fourier Intelligence Costo: El precio actual no se ha revelado, se reportó que los modelos GR-1 previos costaban aproximadamente USD 149.000 Este robot, considerado el primer humanoide producido en masa, puede caminar hasta 8 km/h y manipular objetos con precisión táctil. Ya se utiliza en entornos académicos, industriales y está en fase de prueba para tareas de cuidado en el hogar. Se trata de una evolución del modelo GR-1, con manos el doble de hábiles que las de su predecesor. Fabricante: Unitree Costo: USD 16.000 Este humanoide chino logró en 2024 el récord Guinness como el robot humanoide más veloz del mundo, alcanzando 11,8 km/h. Con sensores LiDAR y tecnología de código abierto, puede abrir botellas, hacer volteretas, freír comida y operar herramientas. Esta característica permite que diversas industrias con recursos acotados puedan incorporarlo. Fabricante: Figure AI Costo: Se proyecta alrededor de USD 150.000 Instalado en una planta de BMW en EE.UU., este robot aumentó un 400 % la velocidad de trabajo en comparación con su versión anterior. Financiado por las grandes empresas tecnológicas como OpenAI, Amazon, Nvidia, Intel y Microsoft, se integra en entornos industriales levantando objetos grandes y realizando tareas de precisión, y es capaz de conversar gracias a una IA personalizada. Fabricante: Agility Robotics Costo: No se divulgó públicamente Este modelo está especializado en tareas logísticas como clasificación y transporte de objetos en almacenes. Junto con Figure 02, es uno de los pocos humanoides ya comercializados para aplicaciones industriales. Fabricante: Sanctuary AI Costo: No se divulgó públicamente Lo que diferencia a Phoenix es su capacidad de aprendizaje. Mientras que entrenar a otros robots puede llevar semanas, Phoenix puede aprender nuevas tareas en apenas 24 horas. Ya fue implementado en comercios minoristas canadienses para reponer estantes y empaquetar pedidos. Fabricante: Apptronik Costo: No se divulgó públicamente Este robot de estructura robusta fue sometido a pruebas exitosas por parte de un destacado fabricante automotriz europeo y la NASA. Está diseñado para operar en entornos industriales exigentes, como muelles de carga, y tiene la capacidad de levantar hasta 11.340 kilogramos. Su desarrollo apunta a fomentar la incorporación de humanoides en la industria pesada. Fabricante: Booster Robotics Costo: USD 47.685 A pesar de su tamaño compacto, solo 1,2 metros de altura, este robot participó en el primer campeonato de fútbol con robots completamente autónomos, celebrado en China. En equipos de tres, los Booster T1 cooperaban entre sí, regateaban, anotaban goles y se reincorporaban tras caer al suelo. A medida que estos avances se aceleran, la pregunta deja de ser si los robots humanoides serán parte de la vida cotidiana, y pasa a ser cuán preparados están las personas para convivir con ellos. Marr destacó que “ya no son solo prototipos; se están convirtiendo en compañeros de trabajo, colaboradores y asistentes cotidianos”.
