I'm retired just one a robot to do all the house work all year so the wife and I can spend more time together 👫👩❤️💋👨😁
This robot is my favorite so far aesthetic wise. Cant wait for the future.
Haven’t seen anything that has the humanlike fluidity of Optimus. It’s my front runner.
@@carl-Sp Optimus is most likely a meme
Yeah I can't wait to be obsolete and to be completely at the mercy of companies with more power and influence then the most powerful countries on earth with only one objective, maximize personal profits at the expense of everyone else.
If we are lucky they will give people just barely enough to keep civil unrest from boiling over into complete anarchy. They may not care at all though when they have an army of Robots to do their bidding. I'm sure they will keep a select few fellow humans around if for no other reason then to wipe their backsides and bow before them on their thrones. Maybe you'll get lucky and be one of the chosen few though.
i want to live in the future too
18 years ago the whole concept of the humanoid robot was not even taken serious or even considered a real disruption, just your typical people that thinks Robots are just concepts from movies and not real life creation.
Utter nonsense. We have some 80 years old black & white movies about the "near future" where they show humanoid robots working. I remember in the 90's all the newspapers were full of articles about humanoid robots becoming soon a reality, especially in Japan that will replace virtually all human work. Then we had Japanese Asimo 25 years ago that also spiked the belief that in the near future, humanoid robots will replace all human work.
So, humanoid robots are nothing new, the problem is that they always failed to be developed to actually be useful and till these days, we see a lot of these humanoid robots but none of them are anywhere near in becoming advanced enough to actually go out there and replace human work.
So, lets wait and see.
@@nikokapanen82 I think the OP has a valid point. It's not just a one-off anymore. There are multiple competing humano-robotic companies trying to achieve the first "Model T" or the first "PC" and it is frankly only a matter of time now. We understand each necessary component of the technology sufficiently to dump billions of dollars into it and actually have something to show for the money spent. There's an actual INDUSTRY now, even though that "world's first light bulb" hasn't yet been achieved. It's all just engineering now. There's no mystery to it. We know what has to be done and where to allocate the resources to get it done. It's no longer merely conceptual wishful thinking. Our mechanics, our simulations, our AI, our computing power, our networking, our Lithium based batteries, even our venture capital.... it's there. What's left is pure engineering. Code. System design. Machine learning. Time.
One of the biggest missing pieces IMO was actually natural language processing. Without an easy way to communicate with robots (eg, "Asimo, go do the dishes"), putting them into homes or work places would have required specialized training just to operate them. LLMs have completely solved that hurdle. First time I used ChatGPT, that's when I knew robot butlers were just around the corner. The corporeal motion and actual capabilities (what they can do) will be developed incrementally over time. I imagine that in less than 10 years we will be able to purchase humanoid robots that have a wide array of capabilities, and they will continue to be improved through firmware updates, like any other electronic hardware these days.
We're not there right now.... but we're close. The writing is on the wall. Once self driving cars are finally a real thing, humanoid robots will be coming right after. Hell, people will be able to put a robot in any car and make the car self-driving at that point. This is a fascinating age we are entering! This is history!
Although the mechanical engineering part is extremely hard, the real challenge is likely the « brain » (software) part. Most current generation humanoid robots are based on deep learning, and there is growing evidence that only deep learning based robots is not scalable in a fully open, unstructured environment as it can’t handle corner cases (Tesla FSD), which rises some safety concerns. Therefore I don’t believe the current generation of humanoid robots will succeed, but there could be some applications where safety is not too much a problem, or with a human in the loop it would be able to handle the corner cases. Alternatively my hunch is that there will be a need of an IA based on memristors like the start up Rain Neuromorphics is working on…
@@nikokapanen82 I agree 100%. Although the mechanical engineering is extremely hard, the real challenge is actually the « brain » (software) to make it able to do useful stuffs, but importantly safely (in nearly) all circumstances. Most current R&D work for a robot « brain » focus on Deep Learning (DL) and there is growing evidence that it can’t handle corner cases (Tesla FSD) : without human in the loop, it is likely a dead end. My hunch is that it will require new disruptive technologies like memristors (re-discovered in 2008 by Stanley Williams group at HP Labs), but it is still a new immature technology. There are some interesting articles on Eetimes about a start-up named Rain Neuromorphics about their R&D in that domain.
Bot propaganda is been around long long long ago..difference now is they have AI and will give it a body where some WEF hand or other entities will control it unless we reject the whole concept while still can.
Please do not blame the robots. They do not want to take our Jobs. At this time they do not express choice! Now how they are used by the owners is another thing. We need a human centered approach to governance. So that humans will always be okay.
I hope they take all the jobs.
It's the capitalists that want to take all the jobs.
Only after they destroy thr planet and human race will capitalists realize what they have done.
@@Techtalk2030 And what would you prefer to have happen to the humans that are replaced?
Unless people are going to pay the bills for the displaced workers this is a horrible idea.
What? one robot arm in the 70s put thousands of people out of work and it's still doing it automation has taken a lot of jobs those are simple robots🦾🤖
I can already see all those agricultural workers, factory workers, drivers, etc becoming poets, financial advisors, artist and doctors. It will be great!
😂
That’s the best comment! 😂
HAHAHAHAHAHA oh wait you're serious.....
Seriously though. Either they now need to take time and money to get a degree or they be replaced by ai anyways. The world seems dystopic asf right now.
financial advisors and doctors are also at risk, AI can easily give financial advices and perform surgeries or diagnose and prescribe medicine based on the millions of data it has stored.
Can't be soon enough
I don't wanna work anymore
Work is destroying me
Yup, have fun living under the bridge while the robots get paid to afford the $6000 per month rents which should start coming about from next year. You'll have all the "free time" you need to sit and wonder how you are going to survive the below freezing temperatures at night while the robots sit in an air conditioned office moving crates around.
@@malliyana201 What are you talking about? If robots take all our jobs then nobody will be able to afford the products they are creating. So a basic universal income will have to come with that. And also more taxes on the companies that use those robots to fund the UBI.
Also, why should a robot get paid??? 😆🤣
@@FiftyFabs And why would the robots need $6000 for rent? And why would they need air conditioning??
@@FiftyFabs UBI won't ocur
Robots don't need to pay rent. They can work 24/7. They don't get tired or bored. They don't need to save up for retirement or take vacations.
this is why we need UBI, so we can actually spend our time doing what we love and not watching robots have homes while were all homeless
Jaron Lanier had a pretty interesting argument for why UBI might not be the best idea in a future like this. He has several videos going over how tech will impact government and our lifestyles in the near future.
i'ts going to happen no matter what
If you demand that Congress stop sending trillions of dollars to other countries that don’t even like us we could probably afford UBI…but until then.
@@AJ0K3Rit may not be the best idea but it’s the only one I’ve heard that sounds plausible
I am against UBI but new tech is going to be highly disruptive to labor markets
I love how this robot looks, especially the face. It's like it has its own emotions and is thinking.
Robot is a great machine that can do a lot of heavy work. For example, human can work only 8 - 16 hours per day but a robot can work 24 hours. It's a wonderful idea that robot can do a great job as a human being.
Their power source runs down just like ours does. So, 24 hours a day, not yet. Soon though.
@@maxidaho 24/7 have replacement robot when one need recharge other takes it place.
@@hillbillyintheasia6122 You mean like a shift? 😄
Meaning many will lose jobs because of it but i am currently learning for robot operator (industrial robots) so for me this is both bad and good since my work will probably stay for a long time but as for other then not so much
@@fuzer4047 everyone will have a robot or robots to do our tasks. No need for us to work other then exercise or enjoyment.
The artists did a great job at the aesthetics, they look like a great company!
Nice well balanced video, I have been waiting for this all my life, we thought this would happen in the 1970s, we didn't realise how hard it would be, I think today's scientists and engineers should be really proud of what they are achieving.
the thing is that most people who do these manual jobs dont do them because they feel they have to, they do them because they need money and they don't have qualifications to have better jobs. it's these people who are going to be affected and no longer have money to learn new skills that will suffer from these inovations
tell a 45 yo truck driver he needs to go to college to learn a new skill bacause a robot took his job over night.
"I don't have to do this job...but I need the money to survive, and I don't have any other skills...so...I have to do this job!" ;)
If someone isnt willing to grow and improve then they suffer everyday anyways. Maybe eliminating theses jobs that require no skills will force people to grow and evolve
problem is: jobs that require collage degrees will be gone too. AI system will replace programmers before robots replace manual labour.
@@BlackandWhitecustoms u are probably very young, or very disconected of the reality of adult life.
Once you start working is almost imposible to learn a new skills, return to college or anything, and is even worse if you have kids.
if you go unemployed overnight maybe with goverment support it could be posible to return to education.
the problem of AI and this general robots is bigger than the one faced by industrial revolution workers, because they are going to take every single job, so it isn't like back in the days people were able to switch to another kind of manual labor, General purpose robots+Ai is a pandora's box.
The creators of this video are paid so much by business owners to convince the public that this is kindness.

I can't help but wonder if the world is gonna look like Total Recall movie in 20 years🧐
Indeed
If we're lucky yes....otherwise it will look like Half Life. On our current trajectory, it looks like Half Life.
I bet better. Hopefully everything gets automated. We want more star trek than total recall
one thing is what you're hoping for and yet another what's gonna turn out.. time will tell@@Techtalk2030
Or I Robot, the movie with Will Smith. 😳
I can't wait for robot mechanic/technician to be a thing in companies. Definitely something I could imagine as a job. I'd be the weird guy who always sits in his workshop, tinkering on something and talking to the speech module AI of one of the robots that couldn't be saved, so I don't have to interact with other humans lol
What makes you think they won't have robot mechanics? XD
@rezvlt9285 Well, there has to be some point down the line where you don't want robots to do the work, right.? :D Plus - if you want some.. "special" modifications on your machine that other robots wouldn't be allowed to do, due to their programming, you'd need a human to do it. ;)
Robot mechanic/technician already is a thing, has been for decades. But that job, like all others, can and will be replaced.
@pvanukoff I get your intent, but I mean robot technician/mechanic for the more advanced models. The ones that we saw in this video. Still thanks for the info tho. Should probably get to it already lol
Seriously robots should be helping us and doing the things we can’t or shouldn’t be doing
War?
Yep. Robots for jobs too dangerous and AI for computations too time consuming. Why people are developing both techs to replace us in jobs we can do just fine and need to earn a living, I will never understand.
@@andrewarrondo1253 Isn't it obvious? Why pay $30,000 a year for a basic labor job when you can spend $10,000 a year maintaining a robot that does the same basic tasks. Only the basic jobs will be removed due to automation and create more low level supervisors for cheap.
@@Andre_Jordan I was being facetious. Corporate greed is the reason it’s happening. There will be no more jobs for most of us. Robots will replace our labor and AI will replace our creativity. The future is bleak.
I hope we can have robots that pick weeds and pull bugs so our food stops being sprayed multiple times with pesticides and herbicides. I want to eat healthy food!
Actually, we also covered a company doing exactly that! They use lasers to burn weeds - so it’s pesticide free!

Good article thank you. It'll be interesting to see which company will have the business model that makes these commercial viable and a product that is adopted.
My first thought regarding a skin covering vs leaving actuators exposed - what happens when your three-year-old sticks his finder in, for example, the leg joint and is pinched? That would be my cover.no-cover leading rule. Otherwise - which philosophy wins - the Optimus Prime principles or the Apollo creed?
It is time for humans to learn what it means to be human! It is time that humans are no longer just tools to be exploited. It is time that #JobsAreForRobots #HumansAreForLoving
May God give the creators of this robot speed and progress in developing it!
Mr. Robot said, hate the game don’t hate the player. He just wanna work 😊
As a new viewer of your channel I commend the production value of your videos. Great stuff
Thank you for watching, and thank you for the kind words!
As fascinated and enamored as I am by the development of robotics and A.I, I am concerned about the growing pains of this technology. We don't really have a great historical record with the development of such delicate technologies.
Exactly. It's not all sunshine and roses. The reality is the people are going be laid off in massive numbers and not be able to find gainful employment. There will be zero financial incentive (which is the only incentive corporations care about) to keep humans on when AI/robotics can do their jobs better, faster and cheaper. People are like "wow, won't it be nice when I won't have to hurt my back working my factory job" but they don't think about the fact that they won't be employable. It boggles my mind that nobody is really talking about the downsides.
Great Video!
Quick note: Avengers: Age of Ultron was released in 2015 not 2006.
Good catch! That was our bad!
Unless people are going to pay the bills for the displaced workers this is a horrible idea. Or companies are going to have a bunch of employees that don't know how to work. I know the irony.
They're also doing away with customers.... Great idea guys, increase supply and decrease demand.
I think Apollo would be more efficient if it had chicken style legs with its knees facing backwards and bending that way, just like a bird. It will make squatting easier I think.
I've seen that version, I think Amazon has that design now. Seems solid even though it looks weird
@@seekerofthemutablebalance5228 when it comes to science and technology or for that matter everything in life, there is always room for improvement. I'm very impressed with Boston Dynamics but someone invented the robotics with the dexterity of a human with sensitive fingertips that will not break fragile objects.
We actually met a robot just like that, named Digit!
This robot will be mass produced by 2025 #robotics #shorts
ruclips.net/user/shortsCblmmbFqlEw?feature=share
@@NickFromHardReset it's just as well that these general purpose robots are going to be mass-produced because what normal human being likes working in a dirty dusty noisy warehouse or factory anyway.
@@ProgressiveDiscussions Well, to be fair, it’s entirely possible that someone wants a job in a dirty, dusty, noisy warehouse job on its own merits- it seems unlikely to me, but I’m biased by my own preferences. But the idea behind a lot of robots like this is not that people will never work in warehouses, just that they won’t *need* to work in conditions they don’t want to. Ideally this would mean more choices, not fewer. In practice, however, that’s a question for how society reacts to this kind of technology.
Good video. Exciting times!
I WANT robots to do nearly every job and make work pointless. Let robots do all the tasks and allow for humans to, ya know, LIVE LIFE. We can easily provide for everyone now a days and utilize robots who have a specific program to do these tasks, where we can finally spend our days actually enjoying how life is and experience new places, new sights, new hobbies.
exactly, please make this a reality
In order for that to happen without societal collapse, two things are needed:
1. Robots and robotic companies must be owned by the population at large, i.e. a nationalized enterprise.
2. Universal Basic Income must be implemented in steps as technogical unemployment makes human labor obsolete in economic sectors.
@@renanfelipedossantos5913the income rate must be above inflation rate.
We'll end up like the people in Wall-E
They are creating AI and humanoid robots not to make a world better place, they are creating them to gain total control. Maybe that people who are working to create that things have really good intentions, but politics and owners of that companies don't have. They are not wasting their time, money for just make people do nothing and get everything for free. AI and humanoid robots will not be affordable. They will cost huge amount of money. Only people who can actually possess them will be billionaires and government. Only those who have great influence and power. Do you guys really think everything is gonna be free? Nope. World population is too big, you can't provide all people with food, the planet has limits. Only people who will be alive if AI and robots will be perfected are those who can actually be useful in that new reality. Highly qualified programmers, and the most resilient and strong people who will do hard labor. AI and humanoid robots will not replace those who do low salary job like construction and hard work, they will replace all high salary jobs that have no physical harm to the robots. Computer related jobs, works in the medical field etc.
This was a superb story. It told us that there are some smart folks out there who know that too cute doesn't work, too military is scary, too machine like has no trust, too human has the uncanny valley. We need feedback from the machines to know what they are doing. We are social animals and the robots have to work with our social circuits. Just like the auto drive car got headlights that look like eyes so you can tell when it has 'seen' you (some autodrive electric car at an airport that I can't link to because I've forgotten where I saw it).
Conveniently, the focus is kept on whether AI (under which I also include robotics) will destroy or help humanity, and how to put a friendly face on it, when the much more immediate problem is the profit-driven, autocratic corporate world that is developing and employing it. The problem isn't so much whether people will be afraid of a given interface, but rather that power over every living creature on our planet is being concentrated into fewer and fewer hands by these technologies! It's part of a truly sobering trend away from freedom and democracy.
great videos! thank you for sharing :)
The general purpose robot will be the physical agent of language model. The decision will be realised via multiple models that we can't understand very well. It is politicians' job to develop a deep understanding of the situation whether to restrict the seemingly dangerous robots.
When I see this I can't help but see how this amazing technology is overshadowed by the elephant in the room. The people don't own these robots, the rich corporations do. And when the rich no longer have a need for most humans, it means most humans become less needed and servants to the robots / rich and living off the government whether they want to or not. That isn't the freedom I imagine most of us want from these innovations. Until we decide that such tech extends to benefit humanity with all having ownership of such tech versus a minute select few this will always be the ugliness of such human ingenuity.
I like this design, looks good and fit for purpose
Will you please cover new breakthroughs in longevity / life extension tech?
I imagine there would still be use cases where you would prefer a hydraulic system over electro-mechanical, like some military applications and select industrial uses

I need these two for the farm!!!❤
Have them build a house that doesn't take half a million so I don't have to perpetually worry about paying my rent.
Satire but serious. This is incredible. It's why I'm an engineer who likes to build applications that help farmers and not the next AI that tricks you into watching that next advertisement for a toothpaste that didn't need to be invented.
This is the most exciting time in our history. Btw a VPN does not make you safe trust me.
Now we can gorge on fast food that's fast again and all the kids can record even more videos of themselves dancing and pranking random people! 🎉
Taking into consideration "the law of accelerating returns", no one can accurately predict when robotics will go mainstream on a wider scale. Important point: AI pundits failed to predict the emergent properties of LLMs, including its creators! As a society, we need to be up-skilled via incentives from governments to private enterprises to be prepared for a world in which the cost of intelligence is roughly zero. The other two costs that will diminish are energy and production.
I want the robot design at 13:10 so fucking bad. I appreciate the story they are trying to communicate with the current design, but the other head shape just fits the vibe of a mass-produced workforce so much better imo
The only reason we walk on two legs is because the advantage of using our hands overcame the advantage of stability that four legs provides. But that doesn't mean having four legs was bad. I think the insistence on robots being bipedal is to their detriment. Humanoid top halves are good enough but the lower half should be like a barstool on retractable wheels. There's very few environments that can't be navigated by wheels on four flexible legs. Way faster, more stable, more energy efficient. Walking on two legs just isn't that amazing., It was a necessary evil so we could use our hands better.
I think four legs and tentacles for arms would be a good combination

You shouldn't do that job, no one should, but someone has to. That's kinda the entire problem that plastic guy is trying to solve.
It will no doubt make more people jobless, might even put you out of a job. But if a job is so simple it can be replicated by a robot, that's not good.

Tesla's robots is a joke , it's ten years behind .
One person told me - they employ transport robot - one person loads, one person unloads and one maintenance - before one person with forklift made the same job - but future is bright - unemployed people will have a lot free time
I'm honestly surprised humanoid robots haven't been implemented into society already. I worked in robotics for years in manufacturing and seen the capabilities long ago. The red tape and funding in our society are most likely why humanoid robots are not already in our society.
Affordability has been the blocker. Apptronik has solved that
Apollo is definitely my favorite humanoid! Can't wait to see one in action!
okay but anyone whos legitimately afraid of Johnny 5 takes life way too seriously lol J5 has to be my favorite scifi character.
Before anything: I am an automation engineer who since was 5 wanted to build robots
Every time these topics come up 2 things come to mind
1)why human shape-it really isn’t efficient. People say so it can easily adapt but that does answer why HUMAN shape as oppose to automating the thing (like the forklift)
2)who decides what are the “boring jobs” what’s boring to one is pleasure for another
Just things that always come up in my head with this topic
"why human shape-it really isn’t efficient"
The entire existing world is built for it though.
I want a robot that can get in my car, go get groceries, then come home and cook the food. Then do the lawn. Then go work for 12 hours for pay. Minimum wage. That should be the law by the way. The same minimum wage for robots as humans.
I disagree that the world is designed for humans. WE HUMANS DESIGNED things for the average size human but things in nature are random. We can easily design things for anything. We’ve done it for animals
Your example while fair can also be designed this way:
Self driving delivery cart that goes to a pickup location;
Automated grocery system;
Cooking robot arm;
Self driving lawn mower
Having one robot to do all that involves a lot of programming and engineering redundancies thst just leads to more debugging issues. Not saying it’s not possible. Just seems like the more complicated solution to the problem
Maybe instead of efficient, what about versatile?
@@canadajimit is a fair point on versatility but is versatility necessary or the best choice, is what I am asking
Think apple computers be PC computers:
PCs are customizable, can handle way more things than a Mac so it ends up having more use cases
BUT because apples stuff is more limited in choice, it’s hardware and software work beautifully with limited power consumption, glitches and less likely to be hacked
I’m just thinking imho most robotic cases, versatility is really an unnecessary complication but a cool feature
Also the human body is not the ONLY way to make something versatile. Industrial arms are very adaptable
Love it! Gogogo!
finally someone to carry all those empty boxes in my house. takes me like hours every day
I like that they're smaller than us, they look like I could easily overpower them if needed. I don't want a future where there's hundreds of big powerful AI powered machines everywhere, no thanks
your comment is what short men fear
When I see news about the development of robotics I can't help but imagine that in the not too distant future these machines will be hunting human beings.
Bicentennial Man movie is becoming a documentary
A lot of people need something to do in their spare time, idle minds make people crazier and the pandemic proved that. If the robots took all jobs and we had a policy where the people who made money off it had to pay all non workers a liveable wage then i guess itd be ok but we know thats not happening.
thats the point, so they can enforce the robots against people, it's by design

Most people hate their jobs and robotics will enable them to do what they really like to do.
Technology has always been sold to us in order to "save us time", which means that in order to overcome the boringness of "free time", we need to buy still more technology to entertain us. Not to mention the "free time" we spend learning how to operate or fix our newest technology. I love robots though, and can't wait for them to be affordable and commonplace.
Good luck buying one when you have no income because robots have taken your job.
I like these guys.
It needs the three red volume bars that jump up and down like kit on Knight rider on it's mouth.. Also the same voice as well.
Art and science could be the top priorities of humanity post labour but it will tahe at least 200 years
Meet your replacement at your job, these robots plus AI will take over.
Talking about hydraulics and showing pneumatics 😅
Please all , what languages is used in theses robots ? Is python fine to programme an autonomous robots like thoses ? Thank's
Python is being used mainly in AI. I would start by learning C++ and ROS
No discussion on the software and ai that would run the thing. Mostly aesthetics and what kind of mouth is less creepy 😂
It's nice, but replace those harder outer shells with softer ones, like humans but a little stronger still. Robots should be soft and sturdy like humans. This way they become even more versatile, able to navigate the human world more freely.
So robots do the lifting, AI does the thinking and we get to chill?

Relaxing music.
Not sure if they will be able to compete with Tesla, crazy how fast they have gown.
Tesla's robots is a joke , easily 10 years behind.
Wish there was at least a mention of the software that's powering this.
Am I the only one who saw the Hydra logo ?¿
"Creature of steel....go back to work"
Under our current society and economy if you do not work (and do not have stocks or real estate or trust funds to mooch of of), you lose your apartment, your health insurance, your car, and you become homeless.
Technology that makes "unskilled" (I hate this term) labour obsolete will put millions in a situation where they cannot afford to live.
There are no forces in our government working to make labour not a requirement for food shelter water etc.
Tech bros with this rose coloured glasses outlook are clearly are completely oblivious to the state of the world and it's current trajectory with cost of living crisis aka inflation (corporate greed) and climate change (corporate greed).
Incredible technology with a beautiful design, but their message to free humans from undesired labour is either completely delusionally out of touch or it is said only in application to affluent members of society
🌎 = 🙈
The danger isn't from "robots getting out of control" but rather robots CONTROLLED BY HUMANS being used to, say, rob a bank or store. All these need to have carefully designed, encrypted chips for ALL their movement and AI skills which will prevent hackers from reprogramming one/many to do things that will be problematic to say the least.
Creativity was the job we wanted to do and it took that first!
So what happens when the robots start building robots, the engineers become obsolete as well...
i came to the realisation that they are trying to justify this by allowing people who would normally work these jobs to be able to pursue better endevours but wouldent the people who have those jobs to begin with not have a choice?
I agree. If the people who are to be displaced were capable of better endeavours, surely they would already be pursuing them. In many cases it is more likely they would end up unemployed, with lowered self-esteem, and potentially contributing to an increase in crime statistics. Government will have to fund this change... probably by increased taxation on the people who are still making money FROM INTRODUCING ROBOTS TO PERFORM BORING, REPETITIVE WORK! Go Figure.
MY JOB IS BORING TASKS
Those CGI renders really need to focus on keeping the feet from clipping...
That’s my fault. You’re not wrong - I’ll do better next time!
@@NickFromHardReset Lol, don't worry about it, I was just giving you a hard time bud :p
I hate it that they’re always crouching, it makes them look sketchy, like teenagers ( ? )
One thing I don’t understand is why do the robots have to be in human form? Why can’t they have 4 legs, if in a flat warehouse? It would be safer
Can give the robot wheels if it's in a flat warehouse
I really like the hopeful message at the end, about giving humans back their time to do the things they want to do, the major problem tho is money and the idea of earning currency. Entire economic systems will have to be developed around this new technology once it becomes mainstream enough because capitalism and other economic systems I think wouldn’t be able to work because not enough people are working and aren’t earning money, or we go back to some hybrid artisan based economy like kinda what was present during the Middle Ages up to the colonial period.
Would love to have help gardening and with home maintenance. Maybe humans could learn to play again since they would have more free time and less work time.
Free time and no money
In agribisnis we need them alot..so they can watchout our plants 24 hours non stop.
