Report: Apple is working toward a wheeled home robot that does useful work, not a cute robot dog
akumar · x · 2026-10-18
akumar argues Apple needs to nail Siri as the primary interface, low-power AI processing and audio reach before building a real mobile version — something on wheels that moves around and does useful stuff rather than being a cute robot dog. He frames it as Apple's long-game pattern: shipping practical products (TV, Mini) that double as tech enablers for the next generation of solutions.
