Original post

I meant one task on live stream.

Friends have factories. Many tasks to do.

Heck, my brother wants one to pour a drink in his bar.

American robotics are what I cheer for.

Go @Figure_robot go!

@adcock_brett I would love to come over and see it do multiple tasks myself. Like walk from the bedroom to the factory and do a variety of things.

Heck, can’t wait to have one myself.

@adcock_brett And I meant one task in the factory.

Factories have thousands of tasks.

How many can it do in, say, a Ford factory?
