- alwa 2y agoI am not the person you’re replying to, but I read their comment to be suggesting that earlier waves of technological development addressed those chores first—successfully! To the extent that the robots for both chores are utterly commoditized, and well within the economic means of pretty much all people living in modern economies (even if that means renting time on a machine via laundromat, it still beats a tub of water out back with a posser and a washing board). Those mechanical techniques weren’t up to these more abstract tasks: why would it be reasonable to expect the new computational techniques to generalize immediately to these mechanical problems—much less that they’d immediately achieve better results than the time-tested incumbent techniques? Although, of course, such work is very much underway, e.g. Physical Intelligence’s splashy promo ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42098236 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42098236 ; 14 days ago, 218 points, 189 comments)
