couple decades! Dude, you don't get it.
In 3-5 years a humanoid robot will have the intelligence of the whole of humanity. It doesn't need to create/invent new things to achieve that goal.
Here's the bot count by the end of each year.
2025 ~ 13,000 humanoid bots globally
2026 will be ~100,000
2027 will be ~ 1,000,000
2028 will be 20,000,000
2029 will be 80,000,000
2030 will be 150,000,000
2031 will be 300,000,000
The numbers are staggering. They will be everywhere, doing everything.
@BurchetteMason Hell no. Electric is better. Have you ever even driven one? Do you also want black & white TV's to come back? Or giant cell phones that weigh 5 pounds?
Muse Spark isn't that old, but it was underwhelming. I'm not sure they have even put it in their glasses yet.
They have some of the best glasses out there, and that wrist control for the Meta rayban display glasses...is a thing of beauty.
But their AI is lacking, I'd like to see an OpenAI (or some other giant) partnership. Their hardware could really use a smarter AI.
no.
Tesla teased a working prototype robot charger over a decade ago. It looked like a King cobra, but got mercilessly mocked online with Barry Manalo music playing. Looked cool, but likely would've been a crazy high price tag, so they abandoned it, and never looked back.
The better route is a wireless charging pad you park on top of. No moving parts. Tesla acquired this tech several years ago, and is planning to implement it with the cybercab. But they should incorporate that tech in all their vehicles, and sell a charging pad separately online.
I'm an optimist.
But 20 years...
20 billion humanoid bots
no jobs
work is for fun (welding, glass blowing, painting murals, woodworking, etc.) Also called Hobbies.
Money will barely exist, everyone will be rich, and we will be having talks on if we should just remove it entirely.
In todays terms, we will all be living like multi-millionaires. You can have anything you want, for a small fraction of what it costs today.
Driving will require a license that is very difficult to achieve, but very quick to be taken away.
Robots everywhere, all shapes & sizes. You won't be able to go anywhere or do anything, without relying on dozens of bots.
Everything will be cured, from cancer to colds.
Current life expectancy will be ~200.
