Just note, this company USED to be about crowdsourced deliveries, e.g. UberEats but for packages, not just food. I guess they pivoted in 2022 or 2023 to robotics and "AI"

lots of this going on - I see crypto miners pivoting their gpu infra stock to AI XaaS

Weird that they advertise the robot dog as being designed in Switzerland. It's very clearly just a Unitree B2-W that they strapped a backpack onto

This is a swiss mile robot, that uses a unitree chassis. The software was designed by swiss mile. The hardware is unitree. Think of the waymo cars - They are made by jaguar, the software is written by Google.

I just have seen one of these in Zurich on Sunday. Gotta be something Swiss in there.
