If you make a human like robot, then that robot can use everything a human can.
Society is simply already tailored to that form.
We are full of muscles and neurons that help us move and balance. Our current infrastructure still requires many of us to have accommodations to make it accessible.
These fucking robots are less mobile than nursing home patients or a six month old baby.
Yeah… I build and fit prosthetics at a university hospital. I constantly have to explain to people how cyborg technology will most likely never be on par with your regular human arm.
Nature is amazing but has different constraints and doesn’t always choose the smartest route.
We can use computers, motors and sensors instead of replicating the human body exactly. A lot of startups are failing and there’s a cash grab like always going on, but the tech is rapidly advancing. Boston dynamics for example has an impressive demo up ( https://youtu.be/I44_zbEwz_w ). There’s definitely still a long way to go in any case
Personally, I think it’s really cool (except the fact that it will be quickly weaponized and eventually used against civilian populations)
