If I wanted someone taking a look at all the stuff in my home, I'd just pay a cleaner here instead of one behind a desk in what I assume is a low-labor-cost locale. For $50/hr I can have them come in every day for 160 days, and they can manage stairs.
They’re also much less likely to film their activities and upload it to the Internet…
And store it in a large database with eternal retention.
But... but... it's just for training AI!
Paying for someone to clean your house? Thats so last year.
Why an AI company cleaned my New York City apartment for free

Good good
Except these ai fucks are trying to put cameras on all such labor to train future world models and businesses are okay with it since they get paid for doing nothing extra. So yeah they can manage stairs but they might also be recording everything they do
Use an independent cleaner. My cleaning lady is a great cleaner, but she can barely manage her cellphone, so she's not training AIs.
All the independent cleaner's I could find wanted $400 a week to clean. I've tried 2 different cleaners and fired them both after 4 weeks. They only spend about ~3 hours here a week, so I'm paying over $130/hr... and they didn't even do that great of a job. I guess I should try a third? This robot is tempting though.
"I won't let a human clean my house because AI companies might be paying them to help train future housework robots" is some nuclear grade paranoia.
