AI ROBOTS BECOME TOO HUMAN: First Signs of THE SINGULARITY!

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently unveiled the automaker’s first humanoid robot. The electric vehicle company will develop a prototype humanoid robot, dubbed the “Tesla Bot.” It’s one of a growing number of robots in development that aim to emulate the appearance and abilities of humans.

"Human-based robots will be useful because they can more easily work alongside or instead of humans performing the many 'boring, dirty, dangerous' tasks that we expect humans to do but that are unpleasant for humans to perform," Brendan Englot, a professor of mechanical engineering at the Stevens Institute of Technology, told Lifewire in an email interview.

“The new, useful capabilities could range from a 24-hour home care worker who is always on call to a search and rescue robot that can find people in dangerous places, without putting additional lives at risk,” Englot said.
