.@adcock_brett explains why @Figure_robot pivoted away from designing their humanoid robot's hands after human hands: "This is extremely important. If we want to solve AGI and get to human intelligence in the physical world—it's all going to start with the hands." "Our first-generation hand is a tendon-driven hand." "The rationale here is that a human hand is like this: most of our motors are in our forearm and little tendons drive all the fingers." "It ended up becoming the wrong engineering choice." "We recently unveiled our high degree of freedom, next-generation hand a month ago. This hand has human-level dexterity, as many joints in the hand as a human."
