NBC News’s David Ingram analyzed a month’s worth of Elon Musk’s X posts (our condolences). While what he was able to glean wasn’t too surprising, it was still interesting to see the numbers all laid out. Between September 17th and October 17th, he posted 1,716 times, averaging a little over 55 posts a day. 49 percent of those were about politics, usually fringe. He seems particularly hung up on the race of people on TV and in movies, including going after child actors.

Other things Elon likes to talk about? Crime, Tesla — oh, and of course, himself. Over the 30 days, Elon posted about himself 109 times. He often even reposts his own stan accounts that exist only to fuel his ego. We already knew that Elon liked to post bad political takes and was into self-aggrandising, but now we have some hard data to back it up.

A new robotic breakthrough out of South Korea may soon turn your clothes into assistive tech. Researchers have found a way to mass-produce ultra-thin “fabric muscles” that can flex and lift like human tissue. The innovation could redefine how wearable robots support people in everyday life.

Scientists at the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM) developed an automated weaving system that spins shape-memory alloy coils thinner than a strand of hair.

Despite weighing less than half an ounce, this new material can lift about 33 pounds. That makes it light, flexible and strong enough to power the next generation of wearable robotics.

WORLD’S FIRST AI-POWERED INDUSTRIAL SUPER-HUMANOID ROBOT

A new way to build strength into clothing

Until now, most wearable robots have relied on motors or pneumatic systems. These made them bulky, loud and expensive. They also limited how easily a person could move.

KIMM’s solution replaces the metal core of earlier coil designs with natural fiber. This shift allows the yarn to stretch more freely while keeping its power. The upgraded weaving system now produces these fabric muscles continuously, paving the way for large-scale manufacturing.

The result is a lightweight actuator that moves naturally with the body. It can support multiple joints at once, like the shoulders, elbows and waist, without restricting movement.

Real results from early testing

The team built the world’s first clothing-type wearable robot weighing less than 4.5 pounds. In testing, it cut muscle effort by more than 40% during repetitive work.

A smaller version designed for shoulder support weighs only about 1.8 pounds. In hospital trials at Seoul National University Hospital, patients with muscle weakness improved their shoulder movement by more than 57%.

These results show that fabric muscles can do much more than help factory workers; they can restore independence and mobility for people who need it most.

THE NEW ROBOT THAT COULD MAKE CHORES A THING OF THE PAST

What this means to you

This new kind of wearable tech could one day show up in your daily routine. Picture a jacket that quietly helps lift groceries, or a work shirt that reduces strain during long shifts. For people in recovery, it could offer gentle, continuous support that makes movement easier and less painful.

Healthcare professionals could see fewer injuries, while patients gain more freedom. And in industries like construction and logistics, these fabric muscles could reduce fatigue and boost safety.

Kurt’s key takeaways

KIMM’s success with automated fabric muscle production marks a turning point for wearable robotics. By weaving strength into soft, flexible materials, engineers are closing the gap between machine power and human comfort. As this technology spreads from labs to workplaces and homes, the idea of clothing that truly supports you, physically and practically, is becoming a reality.

I’ll admit it, I thought AR glasses like the Xreal One were a joke when I first heard about them. But they clicked for me as a gamer when I realized they could be plugged into a Steam Deck or an iPad to have my own huge, private display no matter where I am. If you want to be fully immersed in your games and movies (without wearing a bulky VR headset), there are some great AR glasses on sale for their lowest prices ever for Black Friday.

The Xreal One glasses are packed with features and cost $399.99 at Amazon and Best Buy, which is $180 off the original price. This model will look unassuming on your face, save for the USB-C cable you’ll attach to its ear hook to connect your device. The One supports a fast 120Hz refresh rate at 1080p, and its Micro OLED screens provide excellent contrast. The arms of the glasses have built-in Bose-tuned speakers that pipe audio downwards into your ears.

One of my favorite features in the One, three degrees of freedom, lets you virtually anchor the screen in place so it’s not always moving with your head. If you’re in a car, train, or plane, this might be essential to use if watching screens makes your motion sickness worse. As for downsides, the One lacks a hardware-based myopia dial to account for nearsightedness. If the screens look blurry, you may need to get prescription lenses for them.

If having myopia adjustments is crucial to you, I suggest checking out Viture’s Luma Pro glasses, which include the setting. You can get them in the regular size for $424.99 (typically around $500 outside of a sale) at Amazon and Best Buy, or in a large size for $449, also at Amazon. These have a bit more of a gamer-y look, which some may not like, but they’re similar to the Xreal One in both functions and specs. They boast a slightly sharper 1200p resolution with Micro OLED screens and up to a 120Hz refresh rate. Harman tuned their built-in speakers.

We apparently can’t just have one set of AR glasses in 2025 that can do it all for under $500, though. The Viture model lacks the three degrees of freedom that the Xreal One includes. In other words, the screen’s image will move as you move your head. That’ll either be totally fine with you, or it’ll be a deal-breaker.
