Humanoids are a very intriguing path of robotics to me. Certainly, they are generally outclassed by specialised industrial robots in their areas, but because we design the environment around us, humanoids have the potential to be vastly more versatile.
In particular, on area I am hopeful on is rubbish sorting for recycling. With modern vision models + the dexterity of humanoid arms, it shouldn’t be too long until we can automate the sorting process, which would make large scale recycling dramatically more feasible and cost-effective.
