ChatGPT with a body: Watch demo of OpenAI-powered robot ‘Figure 01’.
If you want to see the rapid rate of change taking place, look no further than this demo. According to Brett Adcock, the founder of Figure, Figure 01 has onboard cameras that feed the VLM data that helps it “understand” the scene in front of it, allowing the robot to smoothly interact with the human in front of it. Figure 01 is not being operated by anyone. It’s making decisions based on the external stimuli being presented to it.
