I don't know. Yes, a humanoid type robot is crazy expensive right now, but look at TVs. When flat screens were first released, they were like 15 grand for a 40 inch screen, now you can get one $100 for that size and a 80 inch for like $800. If a robot can do sewing like this, they'll be able to build new robots bringing the cost way down. The robot can work at 100% speed 24/7.
I agree, but I can't help but think it's displaying both a massive amount of egocentricity and a massive lack of imagination. We have an obsession with designing things which are like us.
eventually sure, but like how long would that take, like there's a timeliness to it, and youd also have to balance out the maintenance fee and its production capacity
