And those robots will be as many as every car being made today.
Absolutely.
And BYD, the other day, just announced that they will pay for the liability of any accident their cars will make.
So this, I think, replacement cycle will happen.
It will require a lot of...
time to achieve economies of scale.
But I don't think Elon Musk is off the mark when he talks about 10 billion robots.
Not all of them are going to look like humanoids.
And I think very quickly we will recognize that many, many robots don't need to be humanoids at all, that there is a much more efficient form factor or shape, physical shape, if you want, than the human flimsy structure.
But yes, it's...
It's about to happen.
I think I should qualify all of this by saying it does not necessarily need to happen.

You know, having jobs done by machines is amazing for us.
Very soon, yeah.
