Claude designed a humanoid robot overnight: 698 parts, 33 actuators, self-iterated balance

A developer asked Claude to design a humanoid robot, and overnight it produced a full design: 698 parts, 33 actuators, plus balance testing and iteration until stable. The render shows a full-size humanoid standing 1.76 m tall, weighing 57 kg, with 44 actuated joints.
Details on the toolchain, simulation setup, and physical validation are undisclosed, so treat with caution — but it's a striking data point for LLM-driven robot design.
