Figure AI has terminated its collaboration with OpenAI following significant advances in robotic intelligence. CEO Brett Adcock emphasized that the success of their AI models is now independent of external partnerships, as their technology evolves.

The split comes after Figure AI secured a substantial funding round of 675 million USD, bringing its valuation to 2.6 billion USD. This financial backing is expected to accelerate the development of their innovative humanoid robots.

Figure AI’s upcoming developments may influence broader trends in the AI industry, showcasing their commitment to establishing high-volume production with major clients, including BMW, and adapting to evolving competitive dynamics.
