On September 30, 2026, Figure AI unveiled a short film that depicted the entire sequence of events as its second-generation humanoid robot, F.02, autonomously leaped into a cauldron of molten steel for self-destruction. This dramatic act took place in front of a 75-ton electric arc furnace located in Imatra, Finland. The primary motive behind this bold move is to avert any potential technology leakage and to streamline the disposal process of decommissioned robots. Given that the F.02 is outfitted with a substantial amount of proprietary, self-developed hardware, disassembling it would be a time-consuming endeavor, potentially impeding the pace of subsequent R&D efforts. In a nod to pop culture, Schwarzenegger was invited to witness this event, serving as a tribute to a memorable scene from Terminator 2. Subsequently, the molten metal was repurposed and crafted into limited-edition souvenirs, which were then put up for sale.
