Media & Content Strategy
@robostrategy's week was almost entirely about building out its media arm — hiring talent and launching live interviews to grow its YouTube platform. [1]
Herbert Ong joins to lead YouTube strategy: On Sept 14, @robostrategy announced that Herbert Ong (@herbertong) signed on to lead YouTube strategy and content [2]. The plan is for Herbert to create podcasts, deep-dive robotics breakdown videos with @GoingBallistic5, and educational content on the future of AI robots [2]. A subscription push for the RoboStrategy YouTube channel accompanied the announcement [2].
Live interview with Figure CEO Brett Adcock on Helix 2.5: On Sept 17, @robostrategy went live on YouTube with Figure CEO @adcock_brett to unpack the Helix 2.5 announcement [3], [4]. The interview covered the AI model's zero-shot generalization and the claim that robots arrived at 30 rented Bay Area homes with no additional training and started doing useful work [1]. This was framed around Figure's own Sept 17 announcement of Helix 2.5, which @robostrategy quoted to anchor the interview's relevance [1]. The highest-engagement post in this thread — ~630 views — was the quote-tweet promoting the live interview alongside Figure's announcement [1].

A one-liner reply tagging @herbertong with no substantive content — likely an accidental or placeholder post [5].
