The cost would have to be real low for a real ChatGPT moment
- p1esk 7mo agoHow low? Would you consider $50k to be low enough for wide adoption?
- pants2 7mo agoNo, but for industrial and business uses yes. You'd start to see a lot more robots used for warehouses, deliveries, restocking, cleaning, preparing food, etc.
- p1esk 7mo agoHonestly I’m not really interested in industrial robots. What price would be reasonable for a humanoid robot that can do common household tasks?
- muzani 7mo agoI'd say closer to $5000, which is about the cost of a domestic helper for a year or so. Then again, they don't need sleep, can be jailbroken, they only need closet space, and won't take your money and run. They can do dangerous tasks like fixing the roof too. Menial labor like walking 3 km over to the store to buy me a can of Red Bull. You can have them do pranks at night. They'd probably be valued quite a bit more than a human.
- Lionga 7mo ago$5000 will still be absolute niche. Cost needs to be close to a phone to get mass adoption. And that might very well never happen.
- p1esk 7mo agoA robot like that would be far more useful to me than my car (I rarely use a car), and I paid 50k for my car. So for me personally, 50k would be a no-brainer. But of course only if it can do the tasks I mentioned well enough.
