First incorrect guess was

Twist

Second guess:

Are you are a:

Plot? (ie, a plot twist)

I can keep you grounded, or I can rile you up.

'Plot' as in literally a piece of land, or 'plot' as in a scheme

I can facilitate your travel, or I can discourage you from going.

'Plot' as in a plan of action, or an unexpected incident

a cyborg, a professor, and a statue, schizophrenic mind, and a sled.

All are the main focus of famous plot twists: Blade Runner, ? , Planet of the Apes, Fight Club, Citizen Kane

Hint: As long as people desire entertainment, my forms are seemingly endless.

This fits the 'intangible' def of plot. There are always new stories being made

Still working out some of the details, but I think...
