The heck with the robots. Let’s solve aging so we can live forever then we have all the time in the world to solve everything else

[@AustralianBushman]

@@StrongerThanBigfoot Bad idea. Humans don't change their mind the older they get, they solidify it. Therefore they won't be able to learn as many new things in order to solve new problems. They'll be based in out of date realities, as we already see today. Do you really want super rich people hanging around for any longer? There needs to be a cleansing function for humanity.

[@BigBadBossu]

The issue with everyone stopping death from aging is that if you do that too early it actually slows human progress. The longer people live the less we reproduce. Jus because you live longer does not mean you become a better person or magically retain all of your 12 phds worth in knowledge on your 200th birthday. There would be less humans, no one would retain a significant amount more knowledge. Thus our technological progress drastically slows down. Our economies are not set up to have people that live forever, the resources it would take to de-age yourself are impossible to cheaply make because it includes an expensive array of treatments that currently only multi millionaires can afford. This will make income inequality equal too age inequality. (yeah humanoid robots making everything dirt cheap actually fixes this issue so again its more important.) In a market where we still rely on human labor how will you compete with someone that has 200 years experience on you.... think about that for a minute xD All these problems can be dodged if we get humanoid robots helping every human individual enhance their workflow, productivity, general life assistance, fill out labor market permanently and allow mankind to collect data faster and produce everything else humans would typically be making (technology, production and research). Not to mention they will also give us more ability to overcome biological immortality on top of that. Altogether armies of humanoid robots fully augmenting humanities' ability to make and research literally everything and anything is magnitudes more productive than figuring out how to live longer.

In 1994 I watched Jurassic Park and was blown away by the CGI and dreamed about how good it will get in the near future... 30 years later, despite massive amounts of investment it has only got marginally better, in fact its quite underwhelming. Truly useful bots are not in the near future that's for sure.

[@athulgeorge6744]

@@yingle6027 That isnt a fair one to one comparison. Jurassic Park, although containing CGI, relied more on animatronics, which is why it looks so good for the time. Animatronics are not as heavily used anymore due to the immense costs, when CGI can do the same thing faster, cheaper and for the most part better. CGI has improved heaps but it has plateaued. There isnt an incentive to make CGI even more realistic when audiences mostly think CGI is pretty good. Any more improvements requires alot of effort yet does not give the same monetary benefit. Unless certain companies/people try to push the envelope further, like James Cameron's Avatar, then it wont improve. Bots are closer than you think, once they have figured out the hands and how to learn how to do human activies quickly, then its gonna be pretty big, very fast.

Just another point of failure . They can’t even get the cars to drive them self let alone another robot. The only advantage would be cars that are not built to be self driving you could put a robot in there and away you go . Issue being is so many different cars it just couldn’t be trusted to deal with it. ( with current technology)

[@AustralianBushman]

@@unnamedchannel1237 Tesla's can already drive themselves better than a human. Put that brain in a humanoid robot which didn't control output and there you go. You can teach a humanoid robot to drive without teaching the car to drive also.

@@nba_fan7214 Get over it, doesn't matter how delayed they are, they're still far more aggressive on their goals and far ahead of their competition. Their competition can't even build and sell EVs at the scale and profit Tesla can, and Tesla are already onto FSD, AI and humanoid robots. Blue Origin, which started before SpaceX, still can't even get a reusable rocket to orbit. SpaceX are on their second reusable orbital rocket. They can take an extra 10 years and their competition will still be 10 years behind like they are now.

why try to make robots that can mimic humans when we could invest all of this energy into ascending ourselves and seeing what we are capable of as people with what we already have and optimize the overall quality of living in whole. Like imagine how beautiful the world would be if we collectively came together and said ok what can we do to make this place as sick as possible for everyone. Not on some i am improving other peoples lives as a self righteous but to optimize our wellbeing on this planet. More of a minecraft server where we elevate the collective wellbeing of the server.

Well, it's not technically a "human" hand, sice the design of hand, with the same bones, layout and functionality existed already in monkeys millions of years before humans existed.
