Brain
1X Technologies' generative world model plus VLA stack powering NEO, the consumer-home humanoid shipping via preorder. The world model enables learning by predicting outcomes versus exhaustive pre-programming. Combined with VLA control for action generation. Important verified-vs-claimed flag: NEO home capabilities are teleoperated-assisted; the autonomy-vs-teleoperation distinction is the load-bearing consumer verification point.
