You would rather employ 1k strangers - who are on the other side of an Internet connection - but still control a physical robot in your home that can observe and carry out any action that a human could do?
In what way is it actually better?
- Tycho 2y agoThe robot can’t take anything out of the home or bring anything into it. The operators are not locals with any connection to the local community. They don’t need a key to my property.
- codetrotter 2y agoYou could geofence the robot with indoor positioning so that even if the operator tries to open a window or a door for accomplices, the robot would not be able to reach any doors and windows. You could also have separately controlled curtains and blinds, and before the operator connects to your robots all of those are closed. Now the remote human has no way to even see out of the windows to tell where your house is at. Vs a real life human stranger in your house that could steal stuff and let accomplices into the house.
- skeledrew 2y agoFar easier to have activity monitoring and logging, alerting and pausing on anything suspicious. The rogue operator will then be investigated and terminated, or even arrested, if need be.
- valval 2y agoThis is just a strawman. Tesla is developing an autonomous robot, not a remote controlled one.
- jncfhnb 2y agoIt’s not obvious that they have any chance of delivering an autonomous robot
