Teslas new humanoid robot "Optimus"

These Robots are real! Why is the media not hyped about?

If this robot "Optimus" comes out of the market under 20.000 euro and everyone can use it at home, this company will be the most valued company in the world.

Right?

It's also creepy.

Have you watched I, Robot? Similar to that. The potential AI has for mischief.

@UnbornTao @UnbornTao I think all these movies gave robots a bad image

Just Star wars made them cool

Robotics like this is cringe, its inevitable yet as a product uncreative, the only creative part of the robotic process is what will be hidden from view and is contained only in those who made theories for how to make it. Though even this hidden "creativity" is just explicit logical reasoning and pattern recognition.

If there will be humans for another thousand years "our" robots will look like a reinvention of the wheel, yet these futuristic humans will also be limited in ways humans have always been limited, I think it is wise to focus on and learn to grow from a love and direct experience of these inherent limits.

Robotics of the kind above is a self-obsession. It wont have my applause before it makes a humanoid robot that is indistinguishable from us in physical appearance yet three or four times as strong in most ways, wait, is that even possible?

Aren't these conflicting ideas? Humans are limited, but they can still do cool things. Similarly we can acknowledge that these robots are limited, but hey they can still do cool things. So why expect robots to do all of these things, when we could appreciate the current, very limited robots we have instead? Wouldn't that be more loving?

If it cooks and cleans the house... 

Make it prepare world class sushi from home.
