Consumer humanoid robots like the 1X NEO and Weave Isaac arrive in late 2026, offering subscription models for domestic chores. Tesla's Optimus targets a late 2027 release, though analysts expect broad public availability by 2028 or 2029.

When will you be able to buy a robot that does your housework?

Humanoid robots excel in structured factories but struggle with unpredictable environments and human emotion. Skilled trades like plumbing, healthcare, teaching, and strategic leadership remain completely safe due to the limits of physical AI.

UFC Rewind 2024: A Look at the Top Highlights

From Last-Round Knockouts to Thrilling Decision Wins

UFC 2024 has been a year of legendary moments—from last-round knockouts in many title fights to thrilling decision victories that changed the course of a fight. India made history this year as Puja Tomar became the first-ever Indian to win a UFC fight.

Here’s a look at the biggest highlights from UFC 2024:



Often fighters who become champions in combat sports tend to take it slow, defending their titles not very actively. But that’s not the case with Alex Pereira. The Brazilian kickboxing prodigy and former UFC Middleweight champion defended his Light Heavyweight Title thrice this year against Jamahal Hill (US), Jiri Prochazka (Czech), and Khalil Rountree (US). In his third title defence against Rountree, Pereira was sick and injured but still managed to win.

Jon Jones is one of the GOATs of MMA. The former UFC Light Heavyweight champion became the Heavyweight champion last year but could only defend the title recently. Jones retained the Heavyweight title with a technical knockout over Stipe Miocic at UFC 309 in November.

Puja Tomar, a resident of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, became the first Indian MMA fighter to secure a victory in the UFC. She defeated Rayanne Dos Santos of Brazil by a split decision of 30-27, 27-30, and 29-28 in the women’s strawweight division at UFC Louisville 2024 in June.

Max Holloway (US) defeated Justin Gaethje (US) to win the BMF belt. The fight between the two Americans was of the highest quality, with Holloway knocking out Gaethje with just one second to spare in the fifth and final round.

For Moscow Metro, the daily ridership record is more than 8 million.

5 Motivational Quotes from Tennis Great Rafael Nadal


Rafael Nadal, one of tennis's greatest champions, is not only known for his incredible achievements on the court but also for his unwavering spirit and determination. Here are five of his most motivational quotes:


“My theory is that the most important thing is to be happy, enjoy what are you doing, and be fresh mentally.”


"If you don't lose, you cannot enjoy the victories. So I have to accept both things."


“However great your dedication, you never win anything on your own.”


“No one is perfect. Everybody does stupid things.”


“You fight, you try your best, but if you lose, you don’t have to break five racquets and smash up the locker room. You can do those things, but when you’ve finished, nothing has changed. You’ve still lost. If something positive came from that, I probably would do it. But I see only negativity.”

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."

"Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. I'm very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that."

Top Indian Sporting Moments Since 1947

Fans Criticise UFC Light Heavyweight Title Fight between Pereira and Rountree

UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Alex Pereira (Brazil) will be defending his belt against Khalil Rountree (United States) at UFC 307 on October 5. This is the main event of the fight card.

Pereira has successfully defended his belt twice, first against Jamahal Hill (United States) at UFC 300 and then against Jiri Procházka at UFC 303. UFC 307 would be Pereira’s third title defence.

The Pereira vs Rountree fight has been severely criticised by MMA fans who have pointed out that Magomed Ankalaev (Russia), who is higher than Rountree in the Light Heavyweight rankings, deserves a title shot. Rountree is also facing backlash as he tested positive for a banned substance in May. He was suspended for two months and is now straightaway getting a title fight, fans have pointed out.

In an interview with combat sports journalist Kevin Iole, Rountree said, “If you’re anything but excited about this fight, maybe you got the problem. I don’t think it’s the matchmakers or the company. It’s like if you have a problem with this, I think the problem is yours.”
