LG has unveiled its humanoid robot that can handle household chores. After teasing the CLOiD last week, the company has offered its first look at the AI-powered robot it claims can fold laundry, unload the dishwasher, serve food and help out with other tasks.

The CLOiD has a surprisingly cute "head unit" that's equipped with a display, speakers, cameras and other sensors. "Collectively, these elements allow the robot to communicate with humans through spoken language and 'facial expressions,' learn the living environments and lifestyle patterns of its users and control connected home appliances based on its learnings," LG says in its press release.

I’d like to see how it folds a fitted sheet.

    Surprisingly easy. Takes two people to do it well, or a flat surface like the bed. Lay it top down (part that touches the bed, up) and fold it by its corners. It won’t be perfect but it’ll be good enough.
