True but I think it’s also limiting to build robots (previously just known as machines) in a human form or imitation of it.

The washing machine looks nothing like a human, and yet it’s saved millions of hours of work.

We’ve become obsessed with replacing ourselves instead of building machines that complement us.

For industrial mass production, those non human robots are great.

For chores or other highly individual tasks, I'd love to buy a humanoid robot. I can also see the platform behind it. Like a 3D-printer you can download data for specific use cases.

I think in 10years we will all have a robot at home like we have a car

I definitely understand that, but my biggest concern is that these robots will run on centralized architecture, which means they’ll be a gold mine for highly personalized surveillance. The likelihood you can own one of these robots in a private, secure fashion is nearly zero, imo.
