Because development of mechanical devices does not hype investors nearly as much
in a society that values the worker an invention that relieves work would be lauded.
capitalist society doesn't value the worker, it values the product.
as fas as capitalism is concerned people are just inefficient machines with annoying things like "rights" and "feelings"
Put googly eyes on the robot and name it Steve. Tell investors it's intelligent. Tell them you can have sex with it. You'll have so much money.
It's a bit less about that, and a bit more about the fact that real robots cost a lot, require incredible investment upfront, and the results are very physical, it's very hard to dupe idiots into believing you achieved something great when you wasted all the money.
Look how easily everyone swallowed the llm bullshit, and how hard it is for Elongated Muskrat to convince everyone that his people in cosplay suits are totally robots you guys.
