The technology industry is witnessing rapid transformations that promise a radical change in our daily lives, from robots that perform household tasks with extreme precision, to artificial intelligence systems capable of revealing the secrets of images in seconds.
These innovations raise fundamental questions about the future of humanity and the extent of readiness for a world in which people’s lives are intertwined with smart machines.
In the episode (10/22/2025), the “Smart Life” program reviews the most prominent of these technical developments that are reshaping people’s daily reality, highlighting their positive aspects and the potential risks that may accompany them.
The Figure 03 robot from the American company Figure AI is entering the world of home service with amazing capabilities, as it folds clothes precisely, waters plants gently, and receives visitors with a digital smile.
This robot is 1 meter and 73 centimeters long and weighs 61 kilograms. Its body is covered in gray artificial skin, while its plastic head is devoid of any human features.
His ingenuity depends on the “Halix” artificial intelligence system, which learned to fold towels from watching only 80 training videos.
The robot features two hands equipped with advanced sensors that weigh only 3 grams, but enable it to carry 20 kilograms and move at a speed of one meter per second.
It works for 5 continuous hours before it needs wireless charging, while it relies on two powerful processors from NVIDIA to ensure a fast response of up to 200 times per second.
Best invention
Western newspapers chose “Figure 03” as one of the best inventions of 2025, although the testimonies of journalists who visited the company’s headquarters reveal a different reality, as it required multiple attempts to accomplish simple tasks and required continuous human intervention.
The company’s CEO, Brett Adcock, admits that current models are not yet ready for widespread marketing.
The company raised more than one billion and 600 million dollars at a valuation of 39 billion, with support from technology giants such as NVIDIA, Microsoft, and OpenIE.
The “Boat Q” factory is currently being built, which aims to produce 12,000 units annually, with the aim of reaching 100,000 units within 4 years.
These technical developments raise questions about the readiness of societies to receive this amount of change, and whether robots will actually achieve what they promise, or will it take a much longer time than optimists expect, just as happened with self-driving cars years ago.
