    How many Robotics and AI players will go bankrupt due to lack of customers and demand? IRobot today went Chapter 11 and might be sold to their Chinese manufacturer. Down 73% in premarket. What a shame. Now ask yourself if you can believe the Telsa “1 Million Humanoid story’ for next year! Debt is a killer of businesses.
