    I don't get it...

    These humanoid robots are expensive. Unskilled labour, housework seems to be the lowest ROI for them.

    Factory work, dangerous tasks or skilled tasks I can understand that the robot can pay for itself, but you'd wear out the machine before paying off its labour on work like this.

    I get the future angle for usage after population collapse means we need more bots to take care of elderly populations, but NOW?

    Housebots don't seem practical.

    Progress in Robotics has been painfully slow so I suspect this simply isn't going to work and we are making the poor guys wear a GoPro for nothing.

    It looks like GoPro could use the revenue though!
