There Are Problems With This Humanoid Robot

In this Halloween special edition of Waveform the crew celebrates spooky season! First, Marques, Andrew, and David debate the struggling iPhone Air before talking about how the new Neo robot is too good to be true. Then David explains Adobe’s latest AI-powered creative tools and gets way too excited about the Boox Palma 2 Pro e-reader. It wraps up with a chaotic blind Halloween candy ranking that ended up being the most cursed candy list ever.
