Two reasons why this is just another bullshit claim:
Generalized robotics don't have any autonomy yet. They require immense amount of power to be mobile, and charging takes a lot of time. You'd need fleets to replace fleets upon fleets. Maybe 20m of runtime, and then the same for charging.
Everything needs to be trained for job-specific tasks. Repetitive work that does a single purpose is way easier than a robot with multiple jobs. Right now all these tech demos are simplistic at best, and only focus on single jobs.
Tesla's robot is a total scam, akin to a child's toy that reacts to certain things, and requires internet connectivity (wonder why???).
Boston Dynamics isn't even trying this noise, they know what their purpose is...military use.
Agility hasn't even demonstrated autonomy yet.
1X is maybe the closest, but again...single purpose.
Honda is basically off the map right now, but actually have the most advanced articulation platform.
It's a mess. Stop worrying about this shit and ignore the headlines for 5 years maybe.
Damn. So a minimum of 5 years of chores I have to do still :/
Dude......just get a wife.
We have very different wives.
