Mark Cuban takes aim at home humanoids; execs push back
From the Robots digest for 2026-10-04
What happened: billionaire Mark Cuban is using social media to call humanoid robots impractical for homes (Yahoo Finance, Oct 4; "Before microwaves,…" — the quote cuts off in feed, and the Yahoo page wouldn't load cleanly at write time); robotics execs push back in the piece.
What's genuinely new: celebrity-voice commentary joining the reality-check war's consumer-economics strand (which our record has carried since Sept: the $30/h teleop cleaning anecdote, Cuban's microwave analogy the same genre). Discourse, not movement — keep the quote unverified until a clean capture.
