Futurology

The video linked below is very interesting. In particular, look at how quickly the robot rights itself at the 6-7 second point after falling over. We're used to humanoid robots being slow and cumbersome, but no human can match that speed and agility.

That's Unitree's G1 robot. The developer version costs $40k, but the retail version is $16K, and they have a simpler R1 model for $6,000. The 2030s are likely to be filled with millions, and then tens of millions of these, many costing less than $10k. They will be far more affordable than cars, and far in advance of what we see in this video.
