I'm surprised more people aren't aware of how rapidly robotics are currently developing. The same LLM AI that is capturing public attention with generative art and ChatGPT is equally revolutionizing robots.
Here's an illustration of it. This is the closest I've seen yet of a mass-market-priced and extremely capable robot that could sell in tens of millions around the world. This looks close to the type of robot you could bring to many workplaces and get to do a wide range of unskilled work. How long before we see fast food places fully staffed by robots like these? At the current rate of development that seems only 2 or 3 years away.
Shit I want one but it needs to be programed to cook and clean.
I need to wait for the after market attachments, and preferably less pinch points.
Lol yeah, but what are going do with yours?
Fuck it, then perhaps have it mow the grass. Its probably going to need a job too, 16k is a lot.
Cheaper then having kids with mowing the grass in mind.
