## Summary

Apple researchers open-source HALO, a humanoid control system that reaches 91% success on single real-world tasks. Chaining tasks such as ducking under an obstacle, walking, and pushing a box drops success to 50%. Ming-Chi Kuo projects mass production of such humanoids in 2028 at the earliest.

Apple researchers just open-sourced "HALO," a humanoid control system hitting 91% success on single real-world tasks.

The catch shows why Ming-Chi Kuo pegged mass production for 2028 at the earliest: chaining "duck under obstacle → walk → push box" drops success to a 50% coin flip.
