Do we need humanoid robots? I want a robot for one thing. I'll get a second robot for a second thing.

Great, now you need two separate supply chains for each robot, and you have to keep to sets of parts to service them, and then if the thing you were doing changes to a different thing the robot becomes useless.

Or I buy a laundry robot and a dishwashing robot from the same company...

Nobody is talking about replacing dishwashers and laundry machines with humanoid robots here.

True, but wouldn't that be cool?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 hours ago

It would be cool in a sense that could could have a robot able to do these things by hand I guess.
