Moonshots #215: The Humanoid Robot Explosion


Humanoid robots are no longer research projects—they are entering the workforce in Q1 2026. Peter sits down with Brett Adcock (Figure) and the team to discuss the deployment roadmap.

🏗️ Figure 03 & The Vision-Action Model

The latest humanoid models are now using end-to-end vision-action neural networks. They can watch a human perform a task (like sorting a warehouse bin) once and replicate it with 99.9% accuracy.

🏭 Industrial Autonomy:

  • Sortation: Robots are now handling 90% of complex sorting tasks in major logistics hubs.
  • The 0,000 Humanoid: Peter discusses the timeline for a humanoid assistant priced similarly to a used car, which will unlock a multi-trillion dollar “Labor Abundance” market.
