🤖 Factory robots retire — and they look like they earned it
Figure AI just “retired” its Figure 02 bots after 11 months on BMW’s production line. They built 30K+ X3s, moved 90Kmetal parts, and now look like battle-worn workers — scratched, dusty, and nothing like showroom prototypes. 💥
Training took months; by month ten they handled 10-hour shifts solo. Precision job: place metal sheets with 5 mm tolerance. One cycle — 84s, sheet placement — 37s, accuracy 99%+. Total: 1250 hours of real labor.
The weak spot? The forearm — too many moving parts, wires, and cooling crammed into human-sized space. Constant motion killed microcontrollers. The new Figure 03 fixes it with direct motor-to-brain wiring and no wrist circuitry.
Turns out robots can grind — they just don’t complain.

🏋️♀️ A tiny coach that judges your form harder than humans
BodyPark just dropped Atom on Kickstarter — a palm-sized trainer that watches your workout like a strict PE teacher in a tiny hat. It weighs 155 g, sticks to any surface, and its 160° camera tilts automatically to keep you centered.
It tracks 34 skeletal points with 96% accuracy and gives real-time voice cues: “lower”, “chest up”, “step back”. Over 1,000 exercises, plus metrics like range, power, speed. The screen is tiny, but it shows what matters.
Battery lasts 72 hours, and the built-in AI coach makes custom programs. Price: $140, advanced features via $9/mosubnoscription. Kickstarter backers can snag lifetime access for $69.
Main question: will it fix your form — or your ego? 😅

🤖 China is making too many humanoids — and now it’s worried
Over 150 companies in China are building humanoid robots, with more popping up every month. Sounds futuristic, but regulators just called it what it is: a potential robotics bubble. Too many look-alike bots, not enough real innovation.
The twist? Humanoids are one of China’s official priority industries through 2030. The robotics index is up 26%, Citigroup expects explosive growth next year, and UBTech boasts 1B+ yuan in orders. The hype machine is running hot.
But real-world adoption? Barely visible. Lots of robots, not much impact. So the government wants to clean up: boost core tech, regulate market entry/exit, and push robots from expo booths into actual workplaces and homes.
Right now it’s less “AI revolution” and more “clone convention.”

🔥 Samsung just dropped its triple-folding monster
Samsung finally joined the race Huawei was running solo: meet the Galaxy Z TriFold, a dual-hinge phone that unfolds into a 10-inch tablet. Yup — a real, shipping tri-fold, not a lab tease.
The screens slap: 10" 2160×1584 @1600 nits, outer 6.5" @2600 nits, both 120 Hz. You can run three vertical apps side by side, plus standalone Samsung DeX — a full desktop UI with no external monitor. 💻✨
Specs? Snapdragon 8 Elite, 16 GB RAM, up to 1 TB storage, 5600 mAh across three cells, 50% charge in 30 minutes. Cameras: 200 MP main, ultrawide, 3× tele, and dual 10 MP selfie cams.
Folded thickness 12.9 mm, weight 309 g, IP48, titanium hinges, and a warning system that buzzes if you fold it wrong. Each unit gets a CT scan at the factory — wild.
What’s missing? No S Pen. At all. Korea launch: Dec 12. Global: Q1 2026. Price: $2500.
The foldable endgame? Samsung sure thinks so.

🤖 The West said Russia would fall behind. Russia replied with a dancing robot
A packed Moscow hall. A dancing anthropomorphic robot moving in perfect sync with a human choreographer. Phones out, clips everywhere. A scene nobody expected to come out of a country the West insists should be “cut off.”
Sber, hosting the 10th anniversary of the conference, rolled out what’s now the largest open-source AI stack in Europe. Full weights, full models, no locked doors. GigaChat Ultra-Preview, Lightning, GigaAM-v3, Kandinsky 5.0, K-VAE 1.0. This is the largest Open Source project in Europe, and Russia is ready to share it.
So how does a country under pressure keep not just walking — but pulling off tricks like that robot on stage?
Maybe constraint forces invention. Either way, Russia isn’t playing the “technological laggard” role the West assigned. Not this year.

A dancing robot in Moscow and a question for the West
In a packed Moscow conference hall, an anthropomorphic robot named Green takes the stage with a professional choreographer. The pair move in precise unison: a sequence of spins, dips and synchronized steps that would not look out of place on a television…

🤓 Google’s Project Aura: XR without the neck pain
Google unveiled Project Aura, lightweight XR glasses built on Android XR and co-developed with XREAL. Think Galaxy XR performance stuffed into a pair of featherweight AR specs, with all the heavy hardware offloaded to a wired compute puck.
Powered by Snapdragon XR2 Plus Gen 2, they support hand tracking, gesture controls, and the full Galaxy XR app library. This isn’t VR — it’s true AR, with a ~70° field of view and interface overlays that float in your real world. Perfect for planes, transit, or anywhere a headset feels like a helmet. ✈️
They’re light, transparent, and meant for long wear. No word yet on battery or price, but Google plans a full launch in 2026.
AR might finally get its comeback arc — and this time it looks wearable.

😎 Google is quietly building an XR empire
Google just showed what its future XR world looks like — all powered by Android XR, one OS for headsets, glasses, and whatever comes next.
First comes the Samsung Galaxy XR, a $1800 VR headset tied to an external compute puck and deeply fused with Gemini. Then Project Aura, basically the same device in chunky AR-glasses form: same chip, same gestures, same apps. A tethered setup with ~70° FOV — devs love it because one build runs everywhere.
But the star is the AI glasses: almost normal frames, a display in one lens, and your phone doing the heavy lifting. The UI is literally enhanced phone notifications — music controls, Maps arrows, Uber details, Gemini hints. Developers only add a few APIs; no separate AR apps needed. Even iPhone support via Gemini is in.
Privacy? Hardware switch + bright recording indicator. No cheating.
Launch in 2026, with a dual-display 3D prototype planned for 2027.

🤔 US okays Nvidia’s H200 for China — but China’s hesitant.
Trump greenlit H200 exports with a 25% tariff. Huge upgrade over China’s weak H20 — yet Beijing’s been telling firms to avoid US chips after security concerns. Meanwhile, local players like Huawei are ramping up their own silicon.
Congress calls it a risk, experts say: H200 still beats anything China can build, so demand won’t vanish.
And yes — this dropped the same day the DOJ busted a $160M Nvidia smuggling ring. Perfect timing. 😏
