【Watch Scandal Sin in the City (2001)】

If you want a robot assistant to live in your home and Watch Scandal Sin in the City (2001)act vaguely like a human, you might be in luck.

Hugging Face, a company that largely specializes in machine learning but has branched out into robotics recently, has a new humanoid robot called HopeJr coming out potentially by the end of 2025.

As you can see in a video posted to X, it has a pretty wide range of movement capabilities. Per TechCrunch, it is specifically capable of 66 independent movements. The caption on the video claims it is capable of walking and "manipulating many objects," though we don't get to see the bot walk in the video.

The HopeJr robot is part of a collaboration between Hugging Face and the robotics company The Robot Studio, which shared a longer video of HopeJr on YouTube. The video comes from the Humanoids Summit in London, where the company says HopeJr was fully assembled for the first time.

HopeJr will allegedly start shipping at least some units by the end of 2025, and according to Hugging Face, could cost around $3,000. (The Robot Studio's YouTube video description puts the price at €3,000, however.)

Interestingly, this robot is open source, meaning people have a greater degree of freedom to do whatever they want with it than they would with a closed-source product.

Just as long as nobody makes one that can, you know, do bad things to human beings.
