Hearing Paulo talk about the software he built for his fencing business is inspiring. He's more knowledgeable, more passionate, and more excited about the product than almost any software founder I know. The difference is that he never set out to build a software company, sell it to customers, or to PE. He built software to solve the problems he lives every day. That's what makes this new era of AI so interesting. The people closest to the problem can finally build the solution. And we are going to keep enabling them.

MagicBot X1 is back with new dance moves. It’s already shown off fencing and a basketball dunk. It’s roughly Unitree H2-sized: 1.8 m (5 ft 11 in), 70 kg (154 lb), with 31 active degrees of freedom, including seven in each arm and three at the waist. It uses an NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX module, with NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor available as an option. Its sensor suite includes stereo cameras, head and waist RGB-D cameras, and optional LiDAR. It also has dual hot-swappable batteries. It’s taller than EngineAI’s T800 and looks more agile to me. If it steps into robot combat, we could have another heavyweight contender.
