I have so many mixed feelings about this https://www.figure.ai/news/f-02-decommission
On one hand, if you're gonna do something dumb and cinematic with an arc furnace, this is definitely the thing to do.
Now let's be real. If figure is using commercial cloud GenAI models, this statement is a load of astronomically stupefying idiocy:
"Decommissioning a fleet of robots full of custom-built actuators and other intellectual property is no easy task. We needed to dispose of the robots in a way that protected our proprietary hardware."
uh-huh... Tell ya what, let me do a free pen test of some of Figure's infrastructure with access to some unreleased flagship foundation models, and we'll see if I can't go find all that information they all think is so t0p s3kr1t.
Like seriously dude? You could have given those robots to high school kids to take apart and learn from, and then made job offers to every kid who got anywhere close to figuring it out anything you think is so stupidly secret you had to melt down the machine to prevent an escape.
It's already escaped, because your paranoia has blinded you to the question of what the hell are you so paranoid about in the first place.
