Training general-purpose humanoids will need unprecedented compute capacity, and Figure is stacking the chips.
Figure, with cloud partner Nscale, is deploying up to 100,000 NVIDIA Vera Rubin GPUs.
It's committing $3.5 billion initially, with plans to scale to $6+ billion.
Deployment starts in the second half of 2027, at a data center in Barstow, Texas.

Great update. $6B trains the model.
Then reality sets in. The shop still needs a bulletin when a flexspline starts chewing itself after a couple thousand hours.
This is the terminal side. Not a pitch. Just what’s coming when the fleet leaves the lab or production line.
