I love the idea of robot helpers but I don't love the idea of putting cameras all over my house and having ad companies surveil my intimate space.

I do not think people are even recognizing the security ramifications of these devices. A picture of your key is enough to replicate it[0], and yet we're just going to put these devices everywhere? LLMs have been pretty easy to jailbreak too, you think thieves aren't just going to get these robots to open the doors for them? Or what about governments? Even if you trust your government now, will you trust them with data where they can literally see everything you do and say? That's well beyond 1984. Or just what about what we see from top labs like OpenAI, Anthropic, or even Google and Apple? These trillion dollar companies are not showing themselves to be good at protecting data. Obviously some better than others, but this is a whole new level of intimacy with the data they'll get. Everyone is pissed at Flock, and you want to put mobile Flock in your house?

No thanks, it isn't worth trading all that for not having to load up the dish washer and cook my own meals.

I can't believe these discussions aren't more common.

Wow, the way this site scrolls and pollutes the browser history is pretty terrible! I gave up trying to go back and just closed it and started a new tab

If you disable JavaScripts then you will get a non-interactive version (with a note that says you can enable JavaScripts for the interactive version), so you might try that.

End of the decade is my prediction. We are there GPT Astra shows signs of it. Give it a few more generations. Now if AI robot with compute onboard the robot, that might be multiple decades away, I don’t see compute becoming that abundant and small anytime soon

Non humanoid robots are already in warehouses in some varying capacity. Humanoid robots aren't really versatile enough to be general purpose but I suppose they're a possibility in the future. All I can imagine is that if they're made safe enough to be around other humans they'll have to be quite dumb in a sense (except for the ones around the war industry)
