ChatGPT Acquired A Body: OpenAI And Figure Made A Smart Humanoid Robot

Figure showed the first fruits of cooperation with OpenAI to expand the capabilities of humanoid robots. Figure has published a new video with its robot Figure 01 conducting a dialogue with a person in real time. The machine in the video answers questions and carries out his commands.

Figure has a shiny metal case. This version of the robot includes a backpack for the battery. The arms have seven degrees of freedom, the legs and feet have six, and the hand has six. A total of 41 degrees of freedom are mentioned for all parts of the robot.

The hands received a standard set of five fingers, each finger consisting of two phalanges. The foot and ankle are a simple hinged platform.

The rapid pace of development of the Figure 01 project and the Figure company as a whole cannot but impress. Businessman and startup founder Brett Adcock “came out of the shadows” a year ago after the company attracted the attention of major players in the robotics and artificial intelligence technology market, including Boston Dynamics, Tesla Google DeepMind, Archer Aviation and others, and set a goal “to create the world’s first commercially available general purpose humanoid robot.”
