1.🤖 Figure AI Bets $39B on Humanoids

Figure AI isn’t just raising money. It’s going all in.

They just secured a massive $1 billion round, pushing their valuation to $39 billion as they scale up production of their humanoid brain, Helix.

With NVIDIA, Intel, and T-Mobile backing them, this isn’t a garage project, it’s a full-on bid to put humanoids in homes and workplaces. Imagine one flipping pancakes while you scroll your feed.

This isn’t a pitch deck. It’s a real play to put robots in your daily life.

2.🦾 Dyna Robotics Pushes Toward Physical AGI

Dyna Robotics just pulled in $120 million to build robots that can handle nearly any job.

Their first machine, DYNA-1, is already on the clock working 16-hour shifts in hotels, gyms, and even laundromats.

With heavyweights like NVIDIA, Amazon, and Samsung backing the effort, this isn’t just another robotics startup. They’re aiming for physical AGI robots that can learn and adapt like humans.

This isn’t theory. It’s robots already working in the real world.

3.🏆 GPT-5 Outsmarts the World’s Best Coders

OpenAI’s GPT-5 just outperformed the world’s best coders.

At the 2025 ICPC World Finals, an experimental reasoning model and GPT-5 solved all 12 problems while the top human team only managed 11. Google’s Gemini 2.5 came in at 10.

No shortcuts, no custom training just the same five-hour window and PDFs given to every student. GPT-5 even nailed 11 of the problems on its first try.

Some see this as a milestone. Others see it as a warning.
