Let's face it. Nobody—and I mean nobody, except maybe those weirdos who enjoy ironing shirts on Sunday nights—loves housework. Doing laundry is a 21st-century Sisyphean task; you're barely done before the basket is full again. And don't even get me started on the dishes. But LG says that's the end of that. It's called CLOiD, and it's probably the first thing on four wheels in a long time that's excited me more than the new Porsche 911. Why? Because you can't send a Porsche into the kitchen to make you a sandwich, and the LG CLOiD apparently can.

Forget flying cars and smart refrigerators that judge you for your midnight snacks. At CES 2026, Hyundai just did something we've been waiting for decades, but also a little afraid of. They brought the new Atlas. Not the kind that parkours in YouTube videos, but one that's ready to go. It walks like a human, lifts like an Olympian, and picks itself up off the ground in a way that would send an exorcist fleeing. The new Atlas is here, and it's ready to take on the heavy lifting—literally.
Figure has unveiled the Figure 03 humanoid robot, designed for real-world work in the home. With an advanced battery, intelligent Helix system, and sleek design, it aims to become the first useful robot for everyday household help.
Tesla Optimus: the dance video that shocked the world – your future co-worker dances better than you
Tesla has shown the world a video of its Tesla Optimus robot dancing like AI literally runs through its veins—and it learned all of this without a single fall on the dance floor. Welcome to a future where your next coworker will be a robot. And yes, they'll be wearing better sneakers than you.
When Elon Musk struts onto the stage with President Trump and a Saudi prince, the world stops for a moment. But this isn't a scene from a sci-fi movie—this is reality, where robots dance the YMCA, Starlink connects the skies, and robo-taxis are already waiting for the green light.
When Elon Musk says that Cybercab robotaxis will be rolling out of the factory every 5 seconds, most people think: another "Elon". But if we look closely behind the scenes of the new production architecture, it quickly becomes clear: this is not hype, this is a reset of the automotive industry. The Tesla Cybercab is completely different from any car in the world, at least in 7 key production moments.
As the automotive industry faces constant challenges to increase productivity and reduce costs, companies Tesla and UBTECH Robotics are introducing revolutionary changes with the help of humanoid robots. Tesla, with the development of the Optimus robot, and UBTECH Robotics, with its Walker S robot in the Nio factories, promise a new era in production, where robots and humans together push the limits of what is possible. Humanoid robots are here and they will take your job.
Robotics startup Figure is unveiling its plans to develop the first commercially successful general-purpose humanoid robot, Figure 01, designed to alleviate labor shortages and transform the future of work.
Boston Dynamics, a renowned robotics company, is making waves in the industry with its advanced robotic systems. Founded in 1992 by a group of MIT professors, the company has been at the forefront of the development of cutting-edge robotics technology for more than two decades. This time they surprised us with a demonstration of the physical worker of the future. We can only imagine what production will look like in 10 to 20 years. There will no longer be migrants on construction sites - but robots.
Robots are becoming a normal part of life. That's why you don't have to be surprised when, while walking through the city streets, you will be interrupted by a robot that will try to lure you into the store by clapping. Yes, that will soon be possible too!
Robotization has recently covered all areas of our lives. Still, it sounds pretty strange that strippers would be out-worked by robots. You read that right - this is also expected to happen soon.
Innovations that we could only dream of a while ago are repeated every day in the world of technology. One such is the bionic racing robot that was exhibited at CES 2018.
