A former employee, Robert Grundel, has filed a lawsuit against Figure AI, alleging that the company ignored internal warnings about a robot’s potential to cause fatal harm. The complaint claims that Grundel was fired after raising safety concerns and that his dismissal was not due to poor performance, but rather as a pretext for hiding these issues from investors. Grundel seeks compensation for economic losses and punitive damages, saying he was unfairly treated by the company.
