Big Takeaway: Yesterday, Figure announced a collaboration with OpenAI. They signed a collaborative deal to create next-generation AI models for robots. Embodied AI is here.
Robotics startup Figure raised $675 million in a funding round from Nvidia, Microsoft, and Amazon’s founder Jeff Bezos, valuing the company at $2.6 billion.
Figure's CEO, Brett Adcock, plans to use the funding for the development of large language models for robotics, ramping up manufacturing, and expanding the team. Figure will use Microsoft Azure for AI infrastructure and training.
The AI models developed by Figure will be based on OpenAI's latest GPT models and specifically trained on robotics action data for humanoid robots to interact, see, and perform tasks.

Big Takeaway: Stack Overflow is launching OverflowAPI, granting AI companies access to its extensive knowledge base, with Google as its initial partner.
Google will utilize Stack Overflow data to enhance Gemini for Google Cloud and integrate validated Stack Overflow answers directly within the Google Cloud console.
This partnership aims to introduce AI-powered features on Stack Overflow's platform, building on the previously launched OverflowAI, which did not live up to expectations.
The integrations between Google and Stack Overflow will be showcased at Google’s Cloud Next conference in April.
