Robots replaced humans on the production line years ago

No robot could replace me at work though ;)   Humanoid or not.   (I run a retail business and carry out various admin duties for a charity)

Awh man I am going into retail while I finish my degree. I'm a little scared. I would definitely use a robot to tell a customer where to shove their complaints. 😆

His robots will extoll 'civil war is inevitable' and sue advertisers for not advertising with them.

Genuinely useful humans already here.  Just pay them a good wage.

The important difference is just like a Car you don’t pay for use, you only provide the necessary maintenance to maintain its longevity!

Maybe Elon has in mind to be the world's biggest Robot Pimp with a fine line of useful robots. Or maybe this is his solution to the population problem

I was studying tool making & my college bought an £800 calculator. £800 in the mid 70's is worth what now? 

25+ years ago you could get a calculator as a free gift in a kids candy bag from the shop.

What will AI/ Robots be capable of in the next 25 years, & how much will they cost?

I feel sad that I probably won't be around to see it

bad attitude, a complaint is most of the times an improvement opportunity, if not send it to AI support page
