Redwood City, Calif.-based Dexterity AI was founded in 2017. The company is hiring. Dexterity said it uses “physical AI” to give its full-stack systems human-like dexterity, freeing workers in logistics, warehousing, and supply chain operations from repetitive and strenuous tasks. Dexterity applies physical AI to DexR
