Avast, me hearties! Tech wizard Kurt “CyberGuy” Knutsson be spillin’ the beans on how Figure's mechanical matey be workin’ magic at the BMW shipyard, craftin’ fine metal steeds like a true scallywag! Aye, even the robots be learnin’ their trade these days, savvy?
Avast, me hearties! Aye, ye heard right! After six moons since makin' a pact with the fine folk at BMW, Figure's shiny humanoid contraption be makin' waves in the world of manufacturin’. A new moving picture has surfaced, showin’ off this metal matey’s knack for learnin' the ropes of factory work. The grand dream be to forge a crew of these AI-powered scallywags to tackle tasks that once belonged to us humans. Arrr, what a twist in the sails of labor!This mechanical marvel stands at a modest 5 feet 6 inches and weighs as much as a barrel of rum—132 pounds, to be exact! With a mighty reach of 44 pounds, it can scurry about like a swift fish in the sea, all while lendin' a hand at BMW’s shipyard in South Carolina. Over the next year or so, it’ll be usin’ its rubbery digits to grasp shapes and fix errors quicker than a sailor can swab the deck.
But beware! As these metal mates invade our shipyards, we must ponder what this means for us flesh-and-blood beings. Will we be walkin' the plank, or can we find common ground with our new mechanical mates? Only time will tell, savvy?
