That means no. Until they start selling useful robots with a few simple MCs inside and sufficient documentation. No "AI", no telemetry, no nice GUI, nothing like that.

Apple making robots, what could go wrong? (Looks up phone number for Tom Selleck)

If I had a robot, I would want it to stay securely bolted to the shop floor. I certainly wouldn't buy one from any big tech company.
I want one that can do annoying manual labor tasks. 'Remove all the paint from the concrete porch' would be a nice command.
Though, with how well AIs are going lately, I could see it deciding to destroy the front door instead if I were to entrust it with a power tool.
One can design a visual language in which such a robot would present to the user what exactly it's going to do.
Then a user can say a command, and the resulting action would be displayed, waiting for confirmation by, say, pressing a button.
