# Figure AI **Logo label:** Figure **Entity class:** Robotics company **Ontology status:** Ecosystem seed **As of:** 2026-09-28 ## Definition **Figure AI** is a robotics company represented in NVIDIA's official launch ecosystem for the [[wiki/NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform|NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform]]. This node establishes the participant's canonical identity and platform relationship before the planned deeper organization research phase. ## NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform relationship Figure AI appears in the 107-logo ecosystem graphic published by NVIDIA on September 28, 2026. The graphic confirms inclusion in the launch ecosystem but does not, by itself, establish a contract, production deployment, engineering contribution or uniform adoption status. NVIDIA identifies Figure as building with OpenShell to embed agent-safety controls into autonomous physical systems. ## Relationships - **ecosystem:** [[wiki/NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform|NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform]]. ## Related Articles - [[articles/Safety Discourse Is Transition Discourse|Safety Discourse Is Transition Discourse]] — places this node within the managed transition from concentrated machine advantage to governed public agent deployment. ## Sources / Provenance - [NVIDIA — Open Agent Safety Platform](https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/solutions/ai/agent-safety/) — official ecosystem graphic. - [NVIDIA Newsroom — platform launch, September 28, 2026](https://nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/open-agent-safety-platform) — launch context and any specifically named role above. **Research status:** Platform participation is confirmed; the broader organization profile remains intentionally bounded for the next research phase. ## Simple Reminders, Quotations, and Thoughts > General-purpose humanoid robots may be absorbed first by industries that do not yet exist. As new capacity created orbital-data-center demand for launch systems, abundant robotic labor could create factories, data centers, space infrastructure, and other markets large enough to consume the capacity it unlocks. > **— Adapted from Alexander Wissner-Gross**, *Moonshots, October 7, 2026* [[reminders/Robotics/New Industries May Absorb Humanoid Robots Before Households Do by Alexander Wissner-Gross|New Industries May Absorb Humanoid Robots Before Households Do by Alexander Wissner-Gross]]
