You can now buy an AI-powered home robot to handle your chores — for just $20,000 + $500 a month sub to run it

1X is on track to become the first company to make humanoid robots truly accessible.
Their model, NEO, is expected to arrive in early 2026 — ready to clean your house, do laundry, greet your guests, carry groceries, and even crack a joke.

It is not for me however. It just feels creepy (based on looks). It could also all be a scam. Farzad ordered one. I will wait for Optimus.

From Forbes.com: “1X, the AI and robotics company behind a $20,000 home robot that will clean your house and water your plants, wants potential customers to know two things: First, the Neo Robot has several layers of security that will prevent it from transforming into the Terminator and becoming a murder bot. Second, the company will need you to sign a waiver, allowing human operators to see through the robot’s eyes and help it perform tasks around your home. That’s a pretty big asterisk attached to the promise of high-tech help.” They are drones not bots. 🤣

It’s also a scam. There’s a Wall Street Journal video on YouTube where they interviewed the founder and nothing is autonomous. It was literally being piloted by a human with VR goggles
