Just a thought, but why are we building humanoid robots that are attempting to do the things we already do?
Why don't we build robots that can do the things we can't do?
⚡️🇨🇳 NEW - China: Would you like a robot that can do everything, an assistant that takes care of the housework and can even look after your children? That's exactly what Chinese company MindOn Robotics is aiming for.

Hopefully both?
Just a guess, because "things we already do" = "labor that has a price" = "my startup can be valued"
They are building both, it’s just a better marketing strategy for the available TAM to advertise the reduction of things we already do.
People build what interests them, thats all.
We do already a lot of robots that do thinks we cannot do. Factories are full of it, it just don't look like an humanoid from iRobot but more like a machine shaped to optimize what it must do.
