A completely new world of legal liability, or plausible deniability.

I predict it will never ship, and further there is no market for an ambulatory speakerphone/LLM combo with a human on the other end of the phone (which is how it operates).

it might or might not ship. There is an IMMENSE market for $1-2/hr labor worldwide. Even very low skill labor.

Pay attention, this is a genius once-in-a-generation business strategy.

I agree with you. This is brilliant. Tele-operation of the humanoid vs. waiting for AI is the key here. Then off-shore the tele-operation when you've smoothed out the edges.

I'll personally wait to own best hardware (Unitree) and purchase my own 3P tele-operation service contract.

How'd they somehow revive Gene Roddenberry to come and pose with Neo?

The 20k model has no subscription? How does that work? Surely it's using a fair amount of compute, isn't it?

They will brag about each unit sold to investors to demonstrate product/market fit, and then raise probably 10-100x the sales price per unit from investors.

how far we've fallen where the concept of owning something that you bought seems preposterous to some people

Since it is remotely operated anyway, it would be much more practical on a stable wheeled base and a pair of DEX-EE hands.

Could it do stairs if it was wheeled? Not every house has them, but most do (where I live basements are universal in single family houses, but other regions basements are rare)

20,000 and a $500 monthly subscription? Am I reading that right? Or is $500 a month an alternate leasing option?

You choose one or the other

In this case, if you needed this for whatever reason, I suspect the lease makes sense to not get stuck with a Gen1 product after the same cost point of 40 months.

IDK, this is not a problem I need to concern myself with. I’m clearly not the target demographic.
