A humanoid robot equipped with an artificial intelligence (AI) brain that makes decisions and acts independently in its surrounding environment has been unveiled. It has been causing a stir since its release due to its natural appearance, such as slightly moving its fingers and stuttering like a human.
On the 13th (local time), Figure AI, a humanoid robot development and manufacturing startup, released a video showing the AI robot ‘Figure 01’ created in collaboration with OpenAI, a ChatGPT developer. This robot was created by combining a humanoid robot that imitates the appearance of a human and Open AI’s artificial intelligence technology. Figure AI posted a 2 minute and 35 second video of ‘Figure 01’ on
The video released on this day was filmed on the 9th and shows Figure 01 having a conversation with the experimenter and executing the requested tasks in real time. When the experimenter asked, “What do you see?” Figure 01 responded, “I see a red apple on a plate in the middle of the table, a dish drying rack with cups and plates, and you standing next to the table with your hands on the table.” The question was immediately answered by processing visual information.
Then, when the experimenter asked again, “Okay, can I give you something to eat?” Figure 01 answered, “Of course,” and picked up an apple from the center of the table and handed it to him. Despite vague instructions that did not refer to apples, they handed over apples that they thought they would eat. The movements shown by Figure 01 in the process of handing the apple were very natural, and especially the subtle movement of the fingers was as natural as a human. The experimenter placed trash on the table and asked, “As you pick up this trash, would you please explain why you did what you just did (handing over the apple)?” Figure 01 picked up the trash, put it in a basket, and said, “I gave you the apple.” “The reason I gave it to you was because it was the only food on the table.” It is about making your own judgment about your actions and explaining the reasons.
When asked, “Where do you think I should move the dishes in front of me in the current situation?” Figure 01 answered, “They should go into the dish drying rack,” and moved the dishes to the dish drying rack as instructed by the man. Figure 01 evaluated his performance by saying, “I think I did pretty well.” When he said this sentence, he repeated “I” twice and even looked like a person was stuttering.
Figure AI said that the robot’s movements in the video were not operated remotely, but were acted upon by the robot directly seeing and judging. “The robot can depict visual experiences and plan its next actions.” He also said, “You can reflect your memories and explain your thoughts logically.” After the video was released, netizens around the world commented, “He stuttered like a real person. “It’s really shocking,” he said, expressing concern that the day may soon come when AI robots dominate humans.
Figure AI, founded in 2022 by CEO Brett Adcock, a former Boston Dynamics and Tesla engineer, is a company that develops and manufactures humanoid robots that can be used in manufacturing sites. Last month, it received a lot of attention from the industry, receiving investment worth $675 million (approximately 880 billion won) from Open AI and Microsoft.
Figure AI unveiled its first humanoid robot ‘Figure 01’ in March last year. Figure 01, which is similar in size to a human, was shown walking on two legs and performing simple tasks such as moving stacked boxes onto a container belt.
