According to BlockTempo, 1X Technologies has announced the sale of its humanoid domestic robot Neo, which can perform tasks such as folding clothes, wiping tables, and making coffee. However, the robot still requires remote human operators to take over when it cannot determine the next action, raising concerns about privacy and business models. The robot, priced at $20,000 or available for $499 per month starting in 2026, uses remote operators to complete tasks, effectively making it a walking camera that transmits data for algorithm training. While 1X has implemented privacy measures such as user-authorized connections and blurred visuals, experts warn of potential data leaks and misuse.
