Brett Adcock

Brett Adcock, welcome to the show.

Thanks for having me on.

I've been looking forward to this for a long time.

The robotics guy.

Yeah.

Let me give you an intro here real quick before we get started.

Brett Adcock, a serial entrepreneur and founder and CEO of Figure AI, building general purpose humanoid robots for labor automation.

Founded Vetere, an AI-driven talent marketplace which was acquired for approximately $100 million.

Co-founder of Archer Aviation, developing electric vertical takeoff and landing EVTOL aircraft.

Found Cover, an AI security company using NASA jet propulsion laboratory technology to detect concealed weapons in K through 12 schools.

That's amazing.

In late 2025, you launched Hark, a new AI lab self-funded with $100 million to build what you call human-centric AI.

You've raised billions in venture capital, and Time named you one of the 100 most influential people in AI in 2024, married and a father of three children.

And before we get too far into it, we always start off with a gift.

Thank you.

He didn't give you any tips on that, did he?

All right, I gotta hit one.

What do you think?

They're great.

You can leave this guy here if you want to.
