LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 22, 2026--
Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today shared a weekly business update from YT Jia, Founder and Global Co-CEO of FF.

“In last week’s report, I mentioned that this week we would release an additional special update focused on the latest progress of the EAI robotics education product line and the education system. But before that, let me first share some exciting news about FFAI today. Yesterday, FFAI shares closed up 85.55%, reached an intraday gain of as much as 107.26%, and generated more than $272 million in daily trading volume. This has added an especially celebratory vibe to today’s update.
FF is the first company globally to propose that the first breakout point for the consumer-facing EAI robotics market will be the home education sector. As one of the first U.S. companies to deliver humanoid and bionic robots, FF is fully committed to driving the large-scale adoption of humanoid and bionic robots in the education market, with the goal of making 2026 the inaugural year of EAI robotics in education.
As pioneers and trailblazers in EAI robotics education, we are moving aggressively to build an EAI education ecosystem that serves both the B2C consumer market—including family education, companionship, and child development—and the B2B institutional education market. We aim to become an industry leader by 2026, with a particular focus on attracting “digital natives” of the AI era to join our developer community and to systematically reshape the value structure of AI education. Let me now share several important milestones we have recently achieved in this area.
1. The receipt of a recent funding of $45 million from a mid-to-large U.S. institutional investor further validates confidence in our robotics strategy and gives us even greater conviction to accelerate its full-scale execution.
2. California State Treasurer Fiona Ma, El Segundo Mayor Chris Pimentel, where FF’s Silicon Beach headquarters is located, and leaders from the Lynwood Unified School District in Los Angeles jointly unveiled the California EAI Robotics Education and Innovation Lab. This high-profile unveiling reflects strong recognition of FF’s education strategy and highlights the accelerating ecosystem synergy forming among government authorities, educational institutions, and industry partners around FF’s education initiative.
3. FF has officially signed a strategic partnership agreement with Triple I, an education institution with a full-cycle education planning model, marking the official launch of our collaboration in EAI education. We will also jointly bring an EAI Robotics summer camp. This marks a new milestone in the scaled rollout of both B2B and B2C use cases under “Robot & Vehicle + Education”.
FF has a unique set of systematic advantages in this space. First, we have a clear first-mover advantage. We are the first U.S. company to deliver both humanoid and bionic robots, while also moving decisively into the education market. Second, our Three-in-One evolving flywheel of “Device-Brain-Data” is gaining speed. Large-scale deployment in education will make this flywheel even stronger. Third, we have a strong supply chain and compliance advantages. Our ability to integrate supply chain resources across the world, especially between China and the U.S., together with our ability to build and operate within a U.S. compliance framework, gives us a unique competitive moat. Fourth, we have strong capabilities in building a user ecosystem. Fifth, we are receiving strong recognition and active support at the government level. Sixth, we are also seeing strong support and mutual empowerment from our education partners.
With the combined strength of these six advantages, we are fully confident in our ability to make 2026 the inaugural year of EAI robotics education. The rapid progress of this strategy is also closely tied to our recent organizational transformation. In EAI robotics education, we have officially established an Education Ecosystem Product Line, which will take full responsibility for product development, ecosystem building, and large-scale rollout of our education system. We will continue to keep everyone posted on the planning and progress of our education product eco-strategy in a timely manner.
Last week, core founding members joined the Board of Directors. This is a major enhancement to our corporate governance and also reflects the continued return of the core founding team. Next, subject to Board approval, we will announce further changes in management. Please stay tuned.
Thank you all!”
