It's remote controlled, not autonomous. I feel like that got lost in a lot of the hype...

yes thanks for bringing this up
can see how it gets lost in the hype for sure
in the ad piece I watched, they market this as a helpful human from 1x who can add even more advanced features for you

i guess its like when rich people had/have servants in their houses...except now it'll be some person in a third world country remotely operating your maid / butler and the bot will be recording every bit of telemetry imaginable your family produces and selling it off.
i'll pass, self-hosted robots or gfy
