So the part I agree with is
A lot of people find it fascinating, and it probably also attracts talent who want to work on humanoid robots.
I think it's a fascinating scientific problem and engineering problem, and it can teach us more about human body and locomotion and all of that.
I think there's a lot to learn from it.
Where I get tripped up is why we need them for anything other than art and entertainment in the real world.
I get that there are some areas where
You can't just rebuild like a spaceship.
You can't just like... They've worked for so many years on these spaceships.
You can't just re-engineer it.
You have some things that are just built for human bodies, a submarine, a spaceship.
But a factory...
Maybe I'm naive, but it seems like we've already rebuilt factories to accommodate other types of robots.
Why would we want to just like make a humanoid robot to go in there?
I just get really tripped up on, I think that people want humanoids.
I think people are fascinated by them.
I think it's a little overhyped.
I know, but it shouldn't be.
It should be built so that it's wheelchair accessible.
I mean, it doesn't have to be all, and it also doesn't have to be either or.
I just feel like we're thinking so little about the system in general and how to create infrastructure that works for everyone, all kinds of people, all kinds of robots.
