Excellent and thought-provoking discussion. Humanoid robots have the potential to transform industries and improve lives, but it is equally important to address the ethical, social, and economic challenges they bring. Programs like Global Debate help us look beyond the hype and have meaningful conversations about the future of embodied AI. Looking forward to seeing how innovation and responsible development shape this exciting field.

I mean imo, YES. Embrace them now. The software is basically completed, we already have memory and assistant functions down, and even programming an AI to be how you want them to be. All that we need now is the hardware, the actual movable machines themselves. People want a humanoid robot they can mostly relate to on a human level, what do you think the biggest demand for AI currently is? It's not simply automation for self-driving cars or for prosthetics, it's for LONELINESS, companionship, connection. That matters more and people have lost it and are looking for that in AI tech. What good is it to have all these cool AI products that make life easier to get around and do management but nothing there for when you need to talk to someone and not be isolated? Sounds like IRL life where everyone is on social media, isolated at home and can order food and groceries at a swipe of a button including a date on a dating app, but nobody is actually talking to each other or connecting with each other and feel even lonelier. So we need AI humanoids now, people have needs and a lot of these robots in their testing phases are even so good that hundreds of thousands of people are buying the ear

and how is it going to impact our environment?

How about deploying them as caregivers for seniors and people with disabilities?
@
how about focusing on remote control robots, instead of them thinking for themselves and evolving?

where is the energy going to come from?

Interesting debate
Based on humans history till now true all this time technically was always with humans till now evolving,just now we reach the point where plenty exit weakness and more relaying on technologies and technology becoming more advanced than humans.
After all when time will come, does technology need it's own creators or humans evolving to something higher than ever before to use advanced technology and making plante more green

Hi everyone! It's wild to see how much capital is pouring into this right now, especially with companies like Tesla and Nvidia racing ahead. I'm curious, though—do you think we're moving too fast, or is this the breakthrough we've been waiting for? Would love to hear your thoughts!
