> It's a general robot vs a specialized one. The only reason why it's a hard business case is usefulness vs price. Yes. And as it is a common issue, we’ve seen it play out again and again: specialized wins for an incredibly long time, until the technology and production power leaps forward, and the generic solution becomes enough of a commodity to warrant using it in sub-par use cases. I see the Raspberry Pi as the poster child of this: using a generic computing device to activate your garage door only makes sense because it’s so cheap to do so (at least while supply lasted) I’d imagine humanoid robots will follow the same path: decades from now, as the cost to build one has ridiculously plummeted and we’ve already moved on to way more efficient solutions in specialized applications, we’ll have home humanoids tasked to do dumb things, because it will just be that cheap anyway.
