Humanoid robots: 'we could be one-to-one with humanoids quickly'

from TechFirst with John Koetsier · host John Koetsier

Optimus, the Tesla bot, has been in development for 2 years and still can’t really do that much. There’s another dream team of engineers and roboticists who are building a humanoid robot that they call the “kinder, gentler” robot. In this TechFirst we chat with 2 investors in Figure.ai: Jesse Coors and Gregg Hill. They think humanoid bipedal robots could be one-to-one with humans in numbers "pretty quickly." Corporations will want thousands, and most of us will want at least one. We also dive deep in the Figure.ai robot as I ask them these questions: - Capability? - Timeline to usefulness? - Battery life? - Cost? - Where does a humanoid robot fit in the world? - What does it do to our economy? - Where do you see it helping most?
