outside of sex robots I don't see any reason. I always though robosimian made a lot of sense. I think all its limbs were grasp and movement capable so it could stand or run on all fours or climb or whatever but its been awhile since I saw it. I assume if done nowadays it could be that much more versatile.

Why do we even want humanoid robots?

The same thing that made phones bigger, bandwidth wider, and probably one of the biggest uses of AI.
Horny people want sex without other people. In this case, sexbots.

Isn’t that what masturbation is for?

Why masturbate yourself like a peon, when you can spend $500000 to? And get a free Florence Pugh voice to “avenge” your crusaders?

You make a good point (looking at my bank account and seeing that I still can only afford tissues and hand lotion from Dollar Tree).

rich people want chattel slaves but haven’t been able to do much better than prison labor and outsourced sub-minimum wages. Humanoid robots would be a step closer than what we currently have

Because remaking the world to suit what robots we can make is more work.
