Alan Thompson is an AI expert who is closely tracking progress to AGI. His definition is: Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a machine capable of understanding the world as well as—or better than—any human, in practically every field, including the ability to interact with the world via physical embodiment. And the short version: ‘AGI is …
Humanioid Robot company, FigureAU, has received $675 million in funding from a group of investors, Nvidia, Jeff Bezos, OpenAI and Microsoft. They are not only powerful investors but strong partners for the development and rollout of humanoid robots. I, Brian Wang, described the massive investments coming into humanoid bot from all of the Big Tech …
NASA Ames have shown that a simplified manufacturing and construction process is very powerful. More capable mass produced humanoid robots will be even more transformative. The NASA construction system has a mass of 10 kilograms per cubic meter. Water has a mass of 1000 kilograms per cubic meter. Lightweight and modular construction will create structures …

Tesla has been able to generate realistic video with real world physics using AI for over a year. Dr Know It All, John Gibb, had theorized this a year ago. Elon Musk confirmed this to be the case. OpenAI Sora is much more visually impressive but FSD 12 is in many ways more amazing especially …
OpenAI Sora is a revolutionary text-to-video AI model that is a significant advance for artificial intelligence and real-world applications. It is capable of generating up to one-minute-long videos from textual prompts, maintaining exceptional visual quality. Sora utilizes a diffusion model to evolve videos from static noise into coherent visual narratives, setting a new standard in …

Intuitive Machines will launch the IM-1 mission Nova-C class lunar lander on a SpaceX Falcon 9. The Intuitive Machines IM-1 mission will be the Company’s first attempted lunar landing as part of NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (“CLPS”) initiative, a key part of NASA’s Artemis lunar exploration efforts. The Intuitive Machines 1 (IM-1, TO2-IM) mission …
NASA Ames team created and tested prefabricated voxels standardized reconfigurable building blocks. They built a set of 256 of those blocks—extremely strong 3D structures made with a carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer called StattechNN-40CF. Each block had fastening interfaces on every side that could be used to reversibly attach them to other blocks and form a strong truss …
Sanctuary’s CTO Suzanne Gildert explains their mind and hands first approach. Sanctuary AI views humanoid robots as a means to an end, where the end is human-like general intelligence. Suzanne Gildert is Chief Technology Officer and has been a prominent figure in AI robotics leading to her being often affectionately known as the Mother of …
Machines with human-level intelligence should be able to do most economically valuable work. This aligns a major economic incentive with the scientific grand challenge of building a human-like mind. Here Sanctuary AIs CEO Geordie Rose and CTO Suzanne Gildert describe their approach to building and testing such a system. Their approach comprises a physical humanoid …
