Skild AI, a fast-rising startup that makes software to help robots learn to complete tasks, has bought the robotics automation division of Zebra Technologies Corp., marking its latest effort to broaden its reach in a hot segment.
Major technology companies including Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and Figure AI are racing to develop humanoid robots as AI advances, hardware engineering, and robotics converge. Thousands of workers worldwide are filming themselves doing household chores to generate training data for robots, marking a departure from traditional programming toward embodied AI that learns through observation. Foxconn is preparing to deploy humanoid robots in AI server production lines, while experts note that scaling reliable autonomous operation in complex environments remains a major hurdle.
A Reddit post showcases a robot developed by Skild AI that is capable of cooking eggs. The full video was shared by Deepak Pathak on X (Twitter). The demonstration highlights Skild AI's robotic capabilities in a practical household task, though no further details about the technology or company were provided in the brief post.
