Off topic a bit - "Halodi Robotics (company he's joining) intends to produce thousands of humanoid robots by 2023"

The only thing you need for a humanoid robot is for it to be human shaped and have some electronics inside of it. Doesn't mean it has to even remotely be human in interaction.

The robots on their site look pretty clunky to me, not to say they aren't doing smart things.
