1X is developing Neo - intelligent humanoid robot for home use that automates household chores and brings useful insight into every conversation. The company has created a proprietary artificial intelligence model that understands real-world dynamics and can help robots learn new information autonomously. It uses a combination of video and cues to imbue Neo robots with new abilities. The robot takes video data associated with specific cues and feeds it back into a model of the surrounding world. This model is then fed to a network of robots to give them a better understanding of the physical world and greater knowledge. This behavioral information can help 1X train these models to the point where robots can respond to cues they never did before.
