SANDY SPRINGS, GA — Atlanta-based company UPS is now in talks with the robotics startup Figure AI to use humanoid robots for some tasks in the logistics giant’s networks.
The exact functions those human-like 5’6” robots would handle are not clear.
In a statement, UPS says it wouldn’t discuss, “specific or potential vendor partners”, but said the company regularly explores a wide range of technologies, including robotics.
