Comment on Hyundai begins using Boston Dynamics humanoid robots at US factory
EstonianGuy@lemm.ee 1 week agoCars are a good example, there was a point where you couldnt get a car that was cheaper than a horse. Eventually there were enough old cars on the market that reduced the price so having a horse just wasnt financially reasonable.
There will be a point where there are enough old robots on the market that having a human do a simple labor job isnt financially reasonable.

Good point.
However, there‘s a crucial difference to cars. Robots are hardware AND software. And I don’t know anybody who uses Windows 95, CorelDraw, and Netscape today. Software and connected hardware outdate mich faster than simple hardware.
