Figure live streamed an 8h shift of a humanoid doing work autonomous. Weirdly enough, it misses a bunch of packages -> adjusts headset -> no longer misses. Looks like teleoperation pretending to be autonomous to me.
Despite all these fancy videos, we're still a few years away from general-purpose, autonomous humanoids. Instead of faking autonomy, we at Starlife build humanoids for teleoperation-only, simply using them as a vessel to turn physical jobs into remote work

I find myself increasingly more hand-writing than using AI. Writing is a forcing function for clear thinking. Outsourcing this to LLMs has detrimental effect on actual understanding.
@traders_guild Yes. But where are they? Did not have the success in the past.
The Palm Pilot launched in 1996 but it took the iPhone ~10 years later to make Smartphones go mainstream.
Went to the physical AI meet-up in NYC last Wednesday. While I spending an hour in traffic to get there, my cofounder Satrajit just logged into the robot from home and explained the technology.
Since moving to NYC, we started hosting bi-weekly casual robotics dinners to bring the small (but growing!) robotics community together. Let me know if you want to join next time!
@NickBuilds11 Well, I thought so. Definitely nothing off-the-shelf. Looks parallel. Any limitations you've experienced compared to, let's say 3-finger end-effector?
I really like your upper/under arm design, so sleek!
