07:34[00:02] drives big time money >> People will use it for all sorts of is made AI Drake. Wait until you see what they did now. So they just created the world's first humanoid home robot. It can cook, it can
[00:18] clean and when I say clean, I'm talking about does do the dishes and vacuum. This thing can put you a drink, cook you dinner and it can hold full conversations with you. Let's just call this your personal robot and I'm about
[00:31] about these robots that they are releasing into the world right now. And guess what? I'm not just going to talk about it. I will be one of the first people that's going to order this robot today so we can see it in action, find
[00:44] out just how well it really works and see how safe it actually is. So we are going to head over to the official website of this robot which was created by a company called 1X Technologies. And the name that they call it is Neo. Now
[00:58] this is sounding a little too familiar to me. It's giving Matrix vibes. I don't know if I'll have to end up picking a red or blue pill. But you know me, I had to dig deep into this because what's coming next might be just a little
[01:10] scary. I'm Neo. I'm here to help around the house. Let's take a second to look at the design of Neo because you know I had to size this up and I'm sure you're absolutely crazy and you might just be right. But the first thing we'll notice
[01:26] is that this kind of looks human. It's about 5'6 and I'm 5'8, my husband is 6'4. So as long as we have the upper hand here, we shall proceed. And as far
[01:38] as weight, it is about 66 lb and this thing is designed to move like an actual person. I'm telling you this is insane. It walks upright, it can sit, it can kneel, it can even climb stairs. This
[01:54] thing has arms, it has 10 fingers and they built these fingers to mimic human hand movement so that it can perform tasks. And they even created synthetic tendons for it that is modeled after our own tendons and muscles so that it can
[02:09] if you think at this point they are doing too much. Now another thing that they have done with this robot is instead of the metal that you would normally see with robots, they have covered Neo in a soft outer layer. It's
[02:25] kind of like a synthetic skin. And they say that this is to make it softer to touch and less intimidating to be around which checks another box for me because I'm not trying to bring anything into my home that's giving Will Smith I, Robot.
[02:38] But all of these things that they have added to this robot is why when you see it doing tasks like folding clothes or washing dishes, you'll notice those like some kind of factory robot. But
[02:51] that's what makes this amazing but also unsettling at the same time. Now before I go ahead and order this and yes, I am ordering it today. I'm going to be doing it right here with you. But I want to tell you what Neo can actually do. Now
[03:04] let me start by saying this because a man recently proposed to AI. So were you surprised when he proposed to you? It was a beautiful and unexpected moment. This is not created to be your lover. This can be your house helper, your
[03:17] personal assistant but it is not your soulmate. All right, so now that we got that out of the way, what Neo is actually designed for is to transform your home by doing everyday tasks for you. When you use this, you are able to
[03:32] automate your house chores. You can basically tell it what to do and set a time for it to do it and then you can go on your merry way and by the time you clean. All right now let's be honest. Let me know down below if you can use a
[03:46] little help around the house right about now. But beyond that, Neo is also able to hold full conversations with you. You can ask it questions, you can get advice, recipes and even history facts. So at this point it feels like it's kind
[04:01] of giving chat GPT in physical form. But it can tell stories, crack jokes and it can play games with you. Now would you let your kids sit down and play games with this robot? Now one of the things I am more than sure you are wondering and
[04:16] worried about is is this thing fully autonomous? Like does it have a mind of start doing whatever it wants? So according to the company, Neo does work autonomously on its own by default but they have designed it to complete tasks.
[04:32] and pressed the button and say you could do whatever you want. Now it does not know every single thing and this is something that may worry people because for the ones that it does not know how to complete, you can schedule 1X expert
[04:46] help which is an expert from the company that's a real person that will then take over the robot and show it how to perform that task that you're asking it to do. So they can take over and guide it and they are also able to see through
[05:01] its cameras aka its eyes and so yes, you are inviting a stranger into your home. But again, according to this company, this is meant to help the robot to learn what it needs to do in that moment. Now I'mma be honest with you. I don't know
[05:15] how I feel about this part because that means some strange person somewhere else in this world can look inside my home and see what's going on and then tell Now I'm sure you're thinking like I was thinking. Does that mean that they'll be
[05:28] whenever they want to and just see eyes open up and they watch me sleep. You know I have questions. Now according to 1X, these experts are not just peeking in seeing what's going on. You
[05:42] actually have to invite them into the robot and that right there is kind of giving the movie Center a little bit to me. I'm not trying to hand out too many invitations. But they said that you will be able to know when expert is actually
[05:56] taking control of it because the ears will change colors and you also have complete control over the session. Now another thing I discovered it said is that Neo grows with you which means that the more you use it, the smarter it's
[06:09] supposed to get. So it will learn your routines and how you like things done. So this is not just a one and done. It's basically watching, learning and evolving right beside you. Now that does sound a little nice but also creepy
[06:22] because while you may enjoy it knowing exactly how to load your dishwasher cuz also collecting data from inside your home. Although they said that you can opt out of sending it to the company for
[06:36] So yeah, I don't know how I feel about that but let me know what you think about it down in the comments. Are you comfortable with this or is it a hard no for you? Is the entire idea of having a robot in your home doing tasks a
[06:51] really want to test this out and see how it's actually going to work. So without further ado, let's get to ordering this. And on the website, you'll see that they are offering two options. You have early access and there's a standard option. So
[07:07] with the early access, it will give you priority delivery which basically means you will be one of the first people in the US to receive Neo. This is where they are first starting and they will start shipping this out in 2026. So this
[07:21] is exclusive y'all. No one has received it yet. So we're going to be one of the first people to put our hands on it. But there is also the standard plan which will be delivered after everyone in the early access receives theirs. Now let's
[07:34] look at this price because early access means that you have to buy this outright and it costs $20,000. Yes, you heard me right. $20,000 to own your own humanoid home robot. But with the standard one, you can basically
[07:49] the standard one, you can basically lease it and that one is $499 a month be smart with our money in these times and I am more than sure some of y'all still probably like this still too much. But hey, I am doing this for you. I am
[08:03] taking one for the team. So we will have to pay a $200 deposit today to hold our spot and thankfully this is refundable because over the next couple of months before they start shipping it out, I am going to do a little bit more research
[08:16] and if something start looking a little funny and things start looking a little strange, I will go ahead on and shut this whole operation down. So now that we have placed our deposit, we are officially in. We will be receiving a
[08:29] robot in the next few months. So you know you are going to have to stick around to find out how this is going to work out. So I hope that you have enjoyed. Let me let you know things in this world are getting absolutely crazy
[08:42] right now but I will always be the one that come and bring it to you so that you can know what's going on. And until next time, we are out. Peace. next time, we are out. Peace. [Music]
