In 2026 the Neo robot, the figure 3 and the Tesla bot are going mainstream in countries like America and I’m pretty sure other western countries.
What are your thoughts on it?
I also want to mention. I notice allot of people on Lemmy lack imagination about where this A.I. BS is going in society. They think it’s far fetch for these AI to be more than language models. I’ll let you know right now. That is not the case
Right now, it’s all tech-industry hype, which we should be very skeptical of. None of those robots are proven to work well and that’s what needs to happen first before there’s any chance of them becoming mainstream. I could see humanoid robots being used in some capacity, at some point. But with those first generation products, I fully expect the tech industry to overpromise and underdeliver.
I can’t agree more strongly. The ad for the Neo felt like a cult recruitment video. It’s targeting people in their feels, not appealing to sensibility. Huge red flag. 99% of footage of a Neo in motion has been with in remote controlled by a person in a VR headset.
