Oh of course. My point wasn‘t that there‘s already easier ways to replace all workers. It was more about that humanoid robots sure ain‘t it. The upkeep cost and fail rates are way too high to be cost effective and we won‘t see more of them than small test facilities that only exist as a bad proof of concept to pressure employees.
