John: "Over in China, they’re doing robot Olympics. They’re doing marathons and all sorts of stuff."

Figure founder @adcock_brett: “We look at the distribution of what humans do that is useful, and we [designed our humanoid] to do as much of that as possible.”

“These things where we run marathons, or we do backflips, or we do karate moves—they’re not in the main part of the distribution. They don’t matter. And if you really want to size for those, you’re going to build a really expensive and unsafe robot that’s hard to manufacture.”

“People want the $10,000 humanoid that can do general-purpose work. We want it to do laundry and dishes and be a companion. I want to ship robots at scale into the workforce to do logistics and healthcare, and build buildings and data centers.”

"I don't need [our humanoid] to do backflips to do any of that work. I want robots building other robots."
