“[Asked whether OpenAI will build a humanoid robot:] "We will." "I think we'll have a cool demo in 2027... I don't think there will be robots walking the streets for a few years longer."”

Sam AltmanCEO

CEO, OpenAI

OpenAI has not disclosed what the demo would show or when anyone outside the company would see the robot; the company has roughly two dozen robotics roles open covering actuators, thermal systems and manufacturing.
