## Summary

AI company HUMXN has launched a repair cost subsidy program in Minneapolis, Chicago, and Miami, where residents allow technicians to wear recording devices to capture plumbing, electrical, HVAC, duct cleaning, and carpet cleaning work; the footage is used to train AI and robotic systems. Participating technicians use wearable capture devices to record site inspections, tool selection, and troubleshooting, and the processed data is licensed to AI and robotics research organizations. The company says identifying information in the footage is blurred or removed, and services are scheduled only after resident consent.
