NEO Gamma, developed by Norwegian company 1X and backed by OpenAI, is a new AI-controlled robotic butler designed to handle household chores like cleaning and cooking. Currently a prototype, it showcases capabilities like boiling water, vacuuming, and cleaning while providing companionship. Although reactions to its promotional video are mixed, it signifies a shift toward more advanced home automation, aiming to allow users to focus on more important tasks. Users reacted with humor and intrigue, reflecting both excitement and concern about the implications of such technology in everyday life.
At the end of the video, it takes a well-earned sit in the lounge - while its blissfully-happy owners drink wine in the next room.
'NEO adds a sense of order and balance to your home life that lets you focus on important things,' the firm says on its website.
'This feels like a viral teaser for a new Blumhouse movie', a user said - a reference to the horror film production house.
It's crazy to think that robots were only real in science fiction 10 - 15 years ago.
