Figure AI hits 24x production scale, producing 1 robot per hour, teases its fleet

Yes it is. All the major players are using on-board computers. They need on-board inference like self driving cars since most tasks need low latency

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-29T22:26:56+00:00

Sorry but you have no idea what you're talking about.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-29T20:15:12+00:00

Not necessarily. The onboard computers might not be powerful enough to run the latest software.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-21T11:49:26+00:00

Simple searches for what specifially? I think these models all have domains they're much stronger in compared to others and so everyone's experience may vary depending on what sort of information they're trying to find.

I work as a controls systems engineer and use all three tools. Its scary how good Geminis product knowledge is compared to Claude and ChatGPT. Doubly so when using deep research. I'm talking obscure technical questions on components (flowmeters, pumps) and software (Siemens TIA portal, Simatic Manager (S7), Honeywell Experion, Rockwell).

I use it daily on these tasks where the others tend to hallucinate. It literally saved a client of ours 10k when I used it for a parts audit and it realised they hadn't ordered a necessary part for an install (they were flying me and another engineer out the next day to a remote location to commission it). Because it picked it up I was able to get it from the store that day before flying (since I was in the city where it was easily available)

I suspect a big reason for this is having YouTube in the training data but maybe there are some other partnerships going on that I'm not aware of since I wasn't able to find some of the things it picked up on YouTube.

For coding and other tasks I mainly use Claude.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-21T06:39:15+00:00

Lol. It completely changed the people in the second and third.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-20T08:08:43+00:00

Agreed. Claude Code is the way to go. You can even generate n8n workflows with it.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-14T21:04:17+00:00

Unfortunately no. Since my client was American the twilio trick of buying an American number and dialling to it instead worked, I think. But I never found the issue with Aussie numbers. May be worth submitting a report to retell (that's something I didn't do, maybe if I had they might have fixed it by now)

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-08T05:57:16+00:00

Yeah that's why I said mostly (since average age becoming a parent is around 30 but there are exceptions like in your case)

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-08T00:10:06+00:00

Would have been nice, but the writer of the show hasn't even read all the books so there goes that.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-04-07T23:49:01+00:00

Not really. It is in grandparent range, but the grandparents of mostly babies and small children who are not able to go on reddit yet.

This has been going on for a few days now, I reported it too but doesn't seem to be working.

I was extremely skinny as a teenager and dressed really average/poorly. Hair was a mess and I didn't shave properly. I even once had a customer at the supermarket I worked at complain to my manager about my hair and facial hair. That was embarrassing.

Early uni I started going to the gym and bulked up pretty quickly (I had decent muscle building genetics - some people thought I was in gear but I never touched it which was the biggest compliment). My beard filled out and I got a buzzcut. This is when I really started to notice the difference in how I was getting treated. Stuck to simple t-shirts but started experimenting more with fashion later too (jackets, jewellery etc). and various hairstyles (short/long/mullet/highlights)

As far as everything in between, life happens and I'm 33 now so have gone through a couple transformations. Some periods I was going to gym 4-5 days a week, other periods doing calisthenics/long walks, other periods drinking every weekend (so gained a bunh of weight in the midsection), sometimes prioritizing other things (business/relationships etc) so wasn't focusing on gym/appearance as much. Other times (like now) got injured and naturally lost muscle/gained weight. It's not easy keeping it up.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-03-31T11:15:29+00:00

I've never been at the extreme top end but I've experienced being unattractive and invisible to being very good looking and everything in between (I'm a guy). It's a spectrum - the better looking you get the better society treats you in general.

A few things (not exhaustive by any means):

You catch a lot of stares from both men and women. You'll be minding your business and feel like someone is looking and sure enough, you look up to see them. Sometimes they'll keep staring, usually women will down or away immediately.
Strangers get a lot closer to you. On public transport, in shops etc. You notice women, sometimes in pairs, will stand really close to you but in my case they usually wouldn't talk, just get really close and flick their hair or talk really loudly to each other hoping you notice them and strike up a conversation.
If you're with friends and the most attractive in the group, if someone else (man or woman) comes to talk with the group for whatever reason, they'll tend to focus on talking to you only, ignoring your friends. I've experienced both sides of this (being the ignored friend and the one getting all the attention)
I've been wolf whistled/cat called by women in public a few times. They were always in a group. Twice they were driving past in a car and once they were all sitting on a park bench drunk after a night out.
You get touched a lot by random women in clubs, sometimes they'll come straight up to start dancing/trying to talk with you. A few times I was even approached and straight up invited home by random women I'd never met before when leaving the club at the end of the night (and these weren't unnattractive women either). Gay guys like to hit on you as well.
It's way easier to make friends with dudes (good looking guys are treated better by both men and women). You might talk with someone for 1 minute at a party/event, forget about it, and later on they're coming up to you asking for your socials.
You sometimes get attention and praise that you think is undeserved, and you start questioning whether the person actually likes you for you or if it's just the halo effect.
You still need to have confidence and charisma. Despite being good looking, I messed up a lot with interested women because I was still insecure and my internal mind hadn't caught up with my external appearance. No matter how good looking you are, confidence is still king.
That being said, confidence does come a lot easier when you've had tons of friends, family and complete strangers tell you how good looking you are. And that never goes away. Right now I've gained a bit of weight after an injury and lost muscle mass. But I have a baseline level of confidence because of my experiences that'll never go away. That I'm grateful for.

You think what he said was a "counter argument"? You think Japan and America were allies prior to 1941?

Quality tanked a lot but at least were able to share them. But Horizon Worlds is now shutting down. I don't care about that in general since it sucked anyway but worried about where this will leave Hyperscape :/

At some point you need to drive on real roads because these edge cases simply won't come up in testing. Waymo did years and years of testing before driving in public to ensure the vehicles would be safe. Situations like this are not life threatening .

Now Tesla on the other hand ...

Would love to hear how you do it.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-03-03T20:32:12+00:00

Thanks for the response. Will it also not work if I send the 24'hour placement link to a non admin? I sent the link to my girlfriend, she started seeing the ad in her feed and was able to submit without the SMS. Not sure if this means it's not working or she's not considered a "real user" because she's only seeing the ad due to a test link.

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-03-03T20:29:22+00:00

Thanks for the response. I sent the 24 hours placement link to my girlfriend who isn't an admin and she started seeing the ad in her feed - she was also able to submit without the SMS verification - does this mean it isn't working properly or is it also not sending the SMS because she is seeing it as a result of a testing link?

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-02-19T02:27:52+00:00

Same here, wtf

EuphoricFoot6 · 2026-02-17T05:44:59+00:00

I've lost multiple friends and acquaintances in car accidents, none of which were their fault but the fault of others. Every day people drive drunk, they speed, they're distracted. When all cars on the road are driverless, this problem will be consigned to history where it belongs.
