Seriously. Humanoid robots? Thoughts?
This is why I'm not bullish on Tesla humanoid robots. They might be successful for 1-2 years, then get pummeled by Chinese products and require saving from government tariffs.
The manufacture of robots that do tasks for us is grade school logic, the same type of thinking that tried to bring us VR headsets the year after everybody spent two years in isolation, not talking to anyone. Have these decision makers ever read a book? Are they getting their business ideas from sci-fi, and not a tangible understanding of reality?
They're trying to upend millions of years of physiology so we can sit on a couch while we let an ugly robot into our home so it can dust. Beyond a joke.
The web was broadly successful as a communication medium because you could take some snaps and write some HTML and you have a web site for your business.
Horizon Worlds doesn't let you upload any snaps because: (1) the texture memory on the MQ is limited and you can only have so much photographic content and (2) they don't want to deal with the moderation problems of piracy, porn and all that. The authoring problem is really tough and there isn't anything for standalone VR that isn't a joke, VRChat comes the closest. Apple didn't even try.
