Product Description
Figure’s humanoid robot Figure 02 is meant to provide a physical form for artificial intelligence. The robot can move at 2.7 miles per hour, lift 44 pounds and last for five hours at a time on an electrical system. Figure 02 can also respond via speakers and microphones, resulting in natural conversations. Although Figure partnered with OpenAI in 2024 to leverage the company’s GPT models for understanding voice commands, it has ended the partnership — hinting at a “major breakthrough” with its own models.
