Thanks for sharing dude

I hear you on the humanoid in home thing. 

I want 2 things basically from robots:
- More ergonomic bot shapes/designs 
- A max peak grip/rotational strength below human bone strength thresholds

Honestly I want robots to be designed as calm technology:

I’d say the main framing is seeing technology as an extension of self not as another. I think we put it in humanoid form, I think we’re gonna start to feel like these things are not extensions of ourselves, but something completely different. 

And I’m sure that’s gonna happen in one form or another, I don’t want the world where humanoids. I’m not sure if I am uncomfortable and I need to get over it or my intuition is just telling me this doesn’t work for me dawg

What if humanoid robots are extensions of the corporate self?

The corporeal corporation.
