Southampton admit "what happened was wrong" and have apologised to the other clubs involved, and Saints fans.
The robotics startup Figure AI has been livestreaming humanoid robots placing thousands of packages onto a conveyor belt for nearly a week—a spectacle that included a robot competing against a human intern at one point.
The promotional robot demo has become a viral sensation among tech enthusiasts, spurring YouTube commenters to name the robots and the company rapidly rolling out related robot merchandise in response. Users on X have described the livestream in glowing terms such as “the greatest product demo since Steve Jobs’ ‘one more thing.’” But despite such sentiments, it’s worth bearing in mind that even the most impressive robot demos represent narrow windows for understanding real-world robot capabilities.
Figure’s event began on May 13 as a planned eight-hour robot demonstration featuring the company’s latest Figure 03 robots. The chosen robotic task involved inspecting the barcodes on various small packages—including cardboard boxes and soft padded envelopes or bags—and then placing the packages on a conveyor belt with the barcodes facing downward. The demo would feature the robots performing the task autonomously without any human intervention, according to Figure CEO Brett Adcock.

Montgomery Parks celebrated the grand reopening of Ovid Hazen Wells Recreational Park on Saturday following the completion of major renovations at the 290-acre park in Clarksburg.
The reopening celebration featured the debut of the restored Ovid Hazen Wells Carousel, along with live music, skate park demonstrations, refreshments, and family activities. Montgomery Parks officials said the renovations include a new skate park, upgraded play areas, scenic trails, and other outdoor amenities designed to expand recreational opportunities for residents and visitors.
The historic carousel, originally built in 1915 by the Herschell-Spillman Company, was once operated by the Wells family on the National Mall before being preserved by Montgomery Parks and returned to Clarksburg. Photos courtesy @eight.oh.eight on Instagram.
