Zipline team has been working hard! If you see the graph of 2.5M deliveries we are still pushing hardcore. 100s of partners, new metro and starting up with largest health care partner (Cleveland clinic). Exciting summer

PS: Zipline will get you actually cold drinks and ice cream in this heat

BREAKING: First-Ever Full Tour of Figure's Humanoid HQ

CEO Brett Adcock

Exclusive look through every department on their San Jose campus:

BotQ Factory, Testing, Design, Demos & more.

Brett walks us through how Figure is built:
- System integration lab: where robots are stress-tested with software faults & physical pushes
- Helix AI: team floor where the controls & neural network engineers train the vision-language-action model that runs onboard every Figure robot
- Reinforcement learning & stability testing: where Figure demos the Vulcan project — surviving a lost knee mid-task
- Home: environment where Figure 03 autonomously tidies a living room using their Helix neural network (no teleoperation)
- BotQ: manufacturing facility where heads, batteries, and limbs come together on the assembly line, including the custom-built battery line & end-of-line burn-in bays
- Industrial design studio: (opened publicly for the first time) housing every generation of Figure robot ever built, including: Figure 01 with its Frankenstein forearms, Figure 02, & the sleek Figure 03 that recently appeared at the White House, plus the evolution of Figure's hands & feet

Brett shares why he believes humanoid robots may achieve AGI before any other form factor, why Figure pivoted entirely from hand-coded controls to neural networks, & teases that Figure 04 will be their "iPhone 1 moment."

This was so much fun!

Big thank you to Brett & the team at Figure for opening the doors for us!
