FUnny enough, a live in helper or someone from a heatlhcare company would likely be cheaper and better. But for rich people, this could be a cool novelty.

[@southerncyan4098]

Cheaper for hired labor? how so? 16k~ one time payment for 10 years is about 1.6k per year, [about 40ish dollars per week, cheaper than a tank of gas] for 24/7 usage/productivity. This is unironically a pretty economical device for people who theoretically don't want to do menial chores. However, it is true, that poorer people probably do not have 20k in disposable income lying about, and that's where financing for 60$ dollars a week would become a thing+insurance costs. Still, for the convenience, I certainly think its extremely price competitive to any kind of hired help you could find, to own this kind of "luxury" which would be time.

Yes, but not well and with lots of disastrous failure modes. Tesla's AI can model the world around the car/robot in 4D then plan a route through it, but steering/accelerating/braking a car don't fail in the hundreds of ways that a plate slides out of its the robot's grasp, a wet t-shirt gets wrapped around a sock, two pills drop out of the bottle at once, etc.

[@GamerBoyRobby]

For industrial use, $15k-25k is absolutely fine and will still result in their innevitable adoption Even for personal use, it will be justifiable at that price but that isnt the target market

[@chpsilva]

Something between US$5k to US$8k would bring it more or less to the same price of personal computers in the 80's first half. I find it hard to get lower than this due to the extensive use of mechanical parts, unless of couse if the industry brings some widespread standard allowing easily interchangeable limbs between different manufacturers.

They dance, walk, hop and balance but it'd be really cool if it could: Clean the house Load the dishwasher Empty the dishwasher Do the laundry Pick the weeds We're awfully close to being able to make something quite like 3PO though. A humanoid robot capable of following you around and acting as a translater seems entirely possible now. But then that job can be handled by a phone. Maybe he could go pick up a package or something. 🤷‍♂

[@paluxyl.8682]

Believe it or not but a group of 10 human soldiers is more effective than a group of 10 robot soldiers. The main reasons are: - humans costs less - humans needs no battery, than means they "work" longer than 5 hours without loading - humans can not be so easy detected because they are not out metal On the other hand, robots don't need air to breath ...
