I’m trying to understand why we focus so much on building robots that replicate human form and movement. It seems not very first principles thinking. Surprising to see the number of companies that do this. Tesla especially, and then now 1x and others. I remember reading about the evolution of the DaVinci robot used widely for medical surgeries. They first tried replicate human fingers and movements with an ‘Endo wrist’ but it was so tricky to maneuver and also hard to replicate movement which prompted throwing that out and introducing the newer instrument control system with 5 instruments sitting there (think Dr Octopus from Spiderman). The developer of Execlsius from Globus for spine surgeries is a mentor and asked him the similar thing and they decided from thr start to not have human replication at all. So curious why we strive for that in other areas? Figured @july and @osama would have more insight on this. /robotics

Development of robot 😂USA need more . Systemic loss of poor productivity, too much rules on stuffing structure. One employee cost in USA minimum $30-40k yearly whereas hard to make 40 k in any sector that can afford such employees. For developed countries with eating inflation, robot workers better pay for their own food health labor. Each robot will no need if food , living place , health insurance 😂. Imaging all USA health insurance companies so profitable finding out their way how to grow revenue years after years. Recent UHC news is another example why we need AI and robot . I run small office hire people buy stuff Buy employee many things pay fees every steps on and on
