    1. From the article

      “Possibly one out of every hundred people can have one,” he said. “You’ll see that in the near future.”

      To help make that happen, Alcedo plans to open a mini showroom – a place where people can see the robots in person, learn how they work, and even buy or service them.

      “People don’t know how they look, what they can do,” said Alcedo. “That’s what we’re here for.”

      Right now, prices are steep. The humanoid robot costs around $22,000, while the dog version sells for about $4,500.

      The models we checked out are made by Unitree, a Chinese robotics company known for its lifelike motion.

    2. I think he’s right on some of his points, but IMO it’s not going to happen as quickly and the US will lag behind other countries who will embrace it first.

      Just some bullshit to make the common man more miserable and the rich more lazy

      „Detroit: Become… Youman“?

      Anyway, the vision they present in that game seems to overlap with this entrepreneur so I don’t think it’s unlikely that humanoid machines will have a bigger presence in the future. AI will be commonplace, more advanced but I also read speculation that people will still seek out other humans. That human connection will become the true premium (we low key see that with customer service chat bots already for example).

      „Possibly one out of every hundred people can have one“.

      Sure sounds as ubiquitous as the smartphone…
