Figure AI’s three F.03 humanoid robots have been streaming 24/7 package sorting on X and YouTube since 5/13, and have now been running continuously for more than 100 hours. They are currently in “Day 5” and still live. According to a report by Interesting Engineering, the three robots rotate on a relay schedule, completing 101,391 packages sorted within the first 81 hours. The entire process is driven by Figure’s proprietary Helix-02 visual language action (VLA) model, with no human intervention.
From an 8-hour challenge to 100+ hours without interruption
The original livestream began on 5/13, posted on X by CEO Brett Adcock, announcing an 8-hour sorting challenge with no human oversight. After completing the first day without any faults, Figure decided to extend it to 24 hours, and then further extended it to cross days without interruption. The title of Figure’s official YouTube livestream has been updated to “F.03 Livestream – Day 5,” with 2.18 million total views. The original X post has reached 10 million views. Figure is also selling “24/7 Merch” on its official website.
Three robots in relay, near-human speed per item in 3 seconds
During the livestream, viewers named the three F.03 robots as Gary, Bob, and Frank, with shifts running in relay. The task is fixed: detect barcodes on packages, pick them up, place them back onto the conveyor belt, and ensure the barcode faces downward. Adcock said the robots take about 3 seconds per item, reaching the speed of human package sorters, with some periods as fast as 2.6 seconds. Each robot uses an integrated camera and on-board Helix-02 for autonomous decision-making, with no remote human involvement. Figure’s display cadence echoes a deployment at Tokyo’s airports that also uses logistics as the entry point: starting in May, humanoid robots were introduced to handle passenger baggage cleaning and luggage movement in aircraft cargo holds.
Skepticism: VR remote operation in question
The long-running livestream has also sparked authenticity concerns. Some viewers claimed that during sorting, one F.03 robot “touched its head,” suggesting a human wearing a VR headset was operating it remotely—an allegation that previously appeared in Tesla Optimus’s past demonstrations. Figure’s official account has not directly responded to the claim. TechRadar, meanwhile, rebutted the idea, saying Figure has no incentive to fake it. Figure also released technical details in parallel: Helix-02 is Figure’s proprietary visual language action (VLA) model, running on the F.03 on-board system and not relying on the cloud.
