I'm ready for my home helper robot that makes dinner and does the dishes and takes out the trash. But I'm scared for when those home helpers get drafted to fig

  I suspect the latter will come way before the former...

    It is already here. Not humanoid (yet, but it's in the works) but tracked robots with bolted on machine guns have both held and captured positions in UA.

      Autonomous kill drones in Ukraine have been publicly admitted to now since 2022. Nothing in a 5Km radius survived, and then the batteries died.

  One intelligent humanoid robot per house. What could go wrong really. Possibly the worst idea.

  You should be relieved that they're sending robots instead of you to get blown up by a drone.

  I think you'll be waiting a while for the former, unless you're ok with strangers teleoperating a robot around your house whenever it gets confused.

  To be honest, I'd be fine with a lot of stuff here but the problem is that mainstream robots are heavy and I fear them falling on my children. Children are unpredictable to machines but most parents find that their behaviour is anticipatable. The sample rate on our sensors and the inference rate in our intelligence is just orders of magnitude beyond the state of the art robots. I am just far more sophisticated and capable right now. My hope is that a sufficiently lightweight device is possible here though I can't see how given the weight requirements of batteries.
