This is the best summary I could come up with:
Mark Gurman at Bloomberg has said its robotics projects are under the purview of former Google employee John Giannandrea, who has been in charge of Siri and, for a time, the Apple Car.
One recent example is Samsung’s Bot Handy concept, which looks like a robot vacuum with a stalk on top and a single articulating arm, meant to carry out tasks like picking up after you or sorting your dishes.
Many normal homes are dens of robot-confounding chaos that tech companies will have a hard time accounting for when they create robots designed to follow us or autonomously carry out chores.
A New York Times opinion piece recently pointed out that despite all the hand-wringing about the tech over the last year and a half, generative AI hasn’t proven that it will be any better at making text, images, and music than the “mediocre vacuum robot that does a passable job.”
Moving inside the house and interacting with objects is a trickier problem, but companies like Google and Toyota have seen success using generative AI training approaches for robots that “learn” how to do things like make breakfast or quickly sort items with little to no explicit programming.
They’ve got their work cut out for them with homes like mine, where we’re just one busy week away from piles of clutter gathering like snowdrifts, ready to ruin some poor robot’s day.
The original article contains 1,109 words, the summary contains 232 words. Saved 79%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

If they design the hand well and use good materials, and especially if it has a vacuum feature, I really wouldn’t mind a bot handy.
Considering this is Apple, they’ll probably scan your happy juices and, like… sell your entire genome to advertisers, or smth…
Wtf they do to ballie? 2020 ballie looked cool. New ballie looks like a toddler toy.
