OpenAI Plans Humanoid Robot Development with Demo Expected in 2027PreviousNext

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has confirmed the company is developing humanoid robots, aiming for a demonstration by 2027. Altman explained that humanoid designs suit environments built for humans, such as homes and offices, enabling robots to interact with everyday objects. While specifics about the robot's appearance and capabilities remain undisclosed, Altman emphasized the importance of advancing AI systems that control robot movement and perception. OpenAI established a robotics lab last year and is hiring experts to support this development, though widespread public use is not expected soon.
