Amazon might be brilliant at finding new ways for us to order more stuff from its vast online store, but it also likes to dabble in ludicrous smart home products that are divorced from reality. Unfortunately, some new leaked documents suggest it's up to those tricks again with the development of an AI-powered home robot.
A new report from Insider suggests Amazon is working on a next-gen version of its Astro home robot, which could use ChatGPT-like powers to help it remember and understand its environment (your house). As one of the documents remarks on Amazon's current Astro robot, "our robot has a strong body" but "what we need next is a brain".
