IMHO you’re right. Most people don’t know that “one arm robot” do exists and can be programmed to do a lot of stuff with great precision (some up to almost a micrometer/nanometer). They already have eyes (precise cameras on the side of the robot) and don’t need legs or torsos because they don’t need to move.

Yes. So many of these threads read like Elon is stupid for trying to put humanoid robots in a factory from 1945 when he could just use a robotic arm or specialised machinery.
No, robotic arms and specialised machinery have replaced most labour, at least when compared to total output, already. If they didn’t do that they would have been shutdown a long time ago for lack of productivity and high costs. It’s not 1945 anymore, factories have spent 80 years trying to replace workers and humanoid robots and AI might (eventually) be the final piece.
