Founder and CEO of the Norwegian robotics company 1X Technologies, which builds NEO — a soft, tendon-driven humanoid designed for the living room rather than the factory. His bet is that safe physical contact with people demands compliant hardware, so 1X builds the whole stack itself: casting its own aluminium, spinning the synthetic fibers used as tendons, then the actuators, electronics, firmware and foundation models on top. He argues home deployment is not a later phase but the only way to collect the data humanoids actually need.
