Humanoid robots aren't ideal for automated factories.

It's about damn time someone besides me admits it.
I have been saying humanoid robots are ill-suited to do 10% of human physical feats.
I even was saying a sex robot would be pure fantasy. Back when the sex dolls were first being developed.
People were expecting an Optimus Prime style robot skinned in latex and silicone. I didn't see how there would be room down there for a dick. What with all of the motors, gears and actuators and all. I was assured I didn't know what I was talking about.
The folks here eventually had to settle on a full latex mannequin.
Then without even reconciling that truth, everyone jumped right on the robots were going to replace burger flippers and manufacturing jobs.

In the meantime, every robot that has been unveiled thus far, has the motor skills of a drunken 80 year old, hip replacement patient.

It's a scary world we live in, how many seemingly intelligent people that can't tell the difference between Science Fiction and reality.
It's no different that people believe in Big Foot and Zombies. Which the same fucking people probably do.

Not just androids, but with flying cars. Even if the tech was fully developed, the costs and liability insurance would make them unaffordable.

We would need to first deport all Muslims and probably take away licenses from Asian women.

Bullshit, I have been watching AI slop History videos on Youtube, they will not be replacing Historians.

I hang up on every Phone call that is AI, without exception. I'm not alone, I have never once had anyone tell me. Well hold on now, I enjoy AI cold calls. Phone sales and Call Center workers have a very special skill, and the highest turn over in any industry. Only about 3 out of a hundred people can even make just one call that closes. Those that have a knack to turn a sideways call around and make the sale, are irreplaceable by AI automation. It will never happen.

Writers and Authors, again I can tell if AI has written a Story, or a Song, there's a formula to the method, that I can spot and sense every time. I will say that 90% of every new country song, the lyrics are written by AI. I'm sure pop and rock songs, but at what cost? Eventually people will tune out because of the predictable lyrics.

A potential candidate taking cues from AI political scientist, when their information is being gleaned from the Internet which is sanitized for the Liberal protection, would be a fool.

It would be easier to make a short list of jobs AI can do, from that list than for me to pick over 80% of them that are bullshit.

It's not a hot economy, and since they can't afford to pay for premium humans, it's a no brainer to use AI for now, until things turn around. The Millennials are at Senior Management level now, and they grew up on "It's better than nothing" which is what AI is.
