As demonstrated live by Cuber AI's CK, the platform can autonomously process documents, predict shipment disruptions, and negotiate freight slots, eliminating manual bottlenecks.
"We're not replacing humans," said CK. "We're unlocking their potential—freeing them to focus on strategic growth, while AgenticX handles repetitive operations at scale."
Global Industry Voices Endorse the Agentic Imperative
The roundtable participants echoed a shared urgency to adopt AI amid workforce shortages and geopolitical disruption:
- Marco Reichel (Empire Bison) shared how Agentic automation of e-commerce documentation has allowed their team to refocus on business development.
- Ruben Huber (OceanX Network) emphasized the need for autonomous quoting:
"With over 100 algorithmic RFQs daily, AI-driven responses are no longer a luxury, they're mission-critical." - Bilal Abdallah advocated for responsible AI deployment, noting:
"Governance must evolve alongside automation. Start small, target pain points like demand forecasting."
Addressing Barriers to Adoption
Panelists tackled adoption resistance, especially from frontline teams. CK highlighted the importance of executive sponsorship:
"We show CEOs that AI doesn't cut jobs, it reallocates. We've helped clients redeploy up to 10% of operations staff to customer-facing roles, directly increasing topline revenue."
Cuber AI's internal studies reveal that AgenticX delivers 2–5% efficiency improvements per process cycle, with significantly higher impact in labor-intensive, high-cost markets such as Singapore.
A Vision for Human-Agentic Collaboration
Cuber AI's presence at WAIC 2025 reinforces its mission to build not only intelligent systems but also equitable, resilient supply chains, powered by collaborative Agentic that augments human capability.
"AgenticX marks a new chapter," CK concluded. "One where humans and AI work side-by-side to shape the future of logistics."

The New Home Robot Embodies LG Electronics' Zero Labor Home Vision, Introducing Physical AI to Manage the Time-consuming Tasks of Daily Housework
News Summary:
- LG Electronics will showcase LG CLOiD™, an AI-powered home robot at CES 2026, representing its "Zero Labor Home" vision where intelligent machines handle everyday chores through robotics and connected home integration.
- LG CLOiD is a robot that uses AI and vision-based technology to perform household tasks like cooking and laundry, connecting seamlessly with LG's ThinQ ecosystem to automate home life.
- By unveiling LG CLOiD and its new actuator technology, LG takes a major step toward AI-driven homes, combining robotics, smart appliances, and Physical AI to make housework effortless and time-saving.
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics (LG) today announced LG CLOiD™, an AI-enabled home robot that will be demonstrated publicly for the first time at CES 2026. Designed to perform and coordinate household tasks across connected home appliances, CLOiD is intended to reduce the time and physical effort required for everyday chores. The system represents LG's latest development in AI-based home robotics and smart home platforms, building on the company's Self-Driving AI Home Hub (LG Q9), and the ThinQ ecosystem.
Demonstrating Household Automation in a Real-World Home Setting
At CES 2026, the company will show LG CLOiD operating in diverse home environments. In one scenario, the robot retrieves milk from a refrigerator and places a croissant into an oven to prepare breakfast. After household occupants leave, LG CLOiD initiates laundry cycles and folds and stacks garments after drying. These tasks display LG CLOiD's ability to understand the user's lifestyle and precise appliance control
Hardware Designed for Operation in Living Spaces
LG CLOiD consists of a head unit, torso with two articulated arms and a wheeled base equipped with autonomous navigation. The torso can tilt to adjust its height, enabling the robot to pick up objects from knee level and above.
Each arm has seven degrees of freedom, matching the mobility of a human arm. The shoulder, elbow and wrist allow forward, backward, rotational and lateral motion, while each hand includes five independently actuated fingers for fine manipulation. This configuration allows LG CLOiD to handle a wide range of household objects and operate in kitchens, laundry rooms and living areas.
The wheeled base uses autonomous driving technology derived from LG's experience with robot vacuums and the LG Q9. This form factor was selected for stability, safety and cost-effectiveness, with a low center of gravity that reduces the risk of tipping if a child or pet makes contact.
LG CLOiD's Head as a Mobile AI Home Hub
The head functions as a mobile AI home hub. It is equipped with a chipset – which functions as LG CLOiD's brain – a display, a speaker, cameras, various sensors and voice-based generative AI. Collectively, these elements allow the robot to communicate with humans through spoken language and "facial expressions," learn the living environments and lifestyle patterns of its users and control connected home appliances based on its learnings.
Vision-Based Physical AI: VLM and VLA
At the core of LG CLOiD is the company's Physical AI technology, which combines:
- Vision Language Model (VLM) — converts images and video into structured, language-based understanding
- Vision Language Action (VLA) — translates visual and verbal inputs into physical actions
These models have been trained on tens of thousands of hours of household task data, enabling LG CLOiD to recognize appliances, interpret user intent and execute context-appropriate actions such as opening doors, or transferring objects.
Integration with ThinQ and ThinQ ON
LG CLOiD's capabilities expand significantly through its integration with LG's smart home ecosystem, including the AI Home Platform "ThinQ™" and Hub "ThinQ ON." This seamless connectivity allows LG CLOiD to orchestrate a wider range of services across LG's various appliances.
LG Actuator AXIUM: Robotics Components for Physical AI
Alongside the home robot, LG is introducing LG Actuator AXIUM™, a new brand of robotic actuators for service and robots.
An actuator serves as a robot's joint, integrating a motor that generates rotational force, a drive that controls electrical signals and a reducer that regulates speed and torque. As one of the most critical and cost-intensive components in a robot, actuators are widely regarded as a strategic upstream technology in the emerging era of Physical AI.
LG has accumulated world-class component technology through its market-leading home appliance business. This expertise in component technology is expected to be the foundation for delivering key competitive advantages in actuators, such as lightweight and compact design, high efficiency and high torque. In addition, LG's modular design technology enables customizing, multi-variety production that is necessary for manufacturing advanced robots, which require dozens of types of actuators.
Roadmap Toward AI-Driven Homes
LG plans to continue developing home robots with practical functions and forms for housework. Simultaneously, the company will expand the application of its accumulated robotics technology to home appliances, creating categories such as "Appliance Robots" like robot vacuums, and "Robotized Appliances" like refrigerators with doors that open automatically as a person approaches. The ultimate goal is to create an "AI Home" where housework is entrusted to AI appliances and home robots, allowing people to rest, enjoy themselves and spend their time on more valuable activities.
"The LG CLOiD home robot is designed to naturally engage with and understand the humans it serves, providing an optimized level of household help," said Steve Baek, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. "We will continue our relentless efforts to achieve our Zero Labor Home vision, making housework a thing of the past so that customers can spend more time on the things that really matter."
Visitors to CES 2026 (January 6-9) can experience the tangible benefits of LG CLOiD and the Zero Labor Home through a variety of real-life scenarios at LG's booth (#15004, Las Vegas Convention Center).
