We already have robot grass trimmers and they work pretty well. Why would you want a crude, inefficient, facsimile of a human push or power an inefficient form of mowing the lawn?
- mastazi 4mo agoCameras worked pretty well, but most people take photos with their phones nowadays. Pro photographers still mostly use cameras though. I can envision a future where people have a humanoid trimming a small backyard but at the same time the maintenance of e.g. a golf course would be done by dedicated robots. EDIT: my point is that just like smartphones replaced a number of specialised devices for most people, a humanoid robot could do the same, by virtue of being a general purpose machine
- lobocinza 4mo agoFor when they don't work pretty well and for a thousand other things besides trimming grasss.
- prepend 4mo agoI don’t want a crude facsimile. I want a pretty good facsimile that can cook, clean, mow, carry stuff around the yard. I want this much more than a robot lawnmower + robot vaccuum + plus other single purpose automatons.
