  • I don't think there won't be mass adoption that soon. From what I've seen, fine motor skills are lacking, there isn't much training data to brute force it and other learning doesn't translate that well. The demos that show more are slow or remote controlled. Most not remotely controlled robots seem at the level of a trained chimp, so they can go and fetch stuff, or store things. Give them a peeler, a pot, some vegetables and expecting them to prepare dinner is way too far for a robot. Making coffee or tea is kinda the highlight, and it's pretty expensive for a coffee machine.

    Robots can be useful for places that need some waiters, but that seems early take-off phase. But once fine motor skills and learning by watching a few videos are sorted out, then they'll take off. That's being worked on. Hell, it was announced this week they got it working in the lab. Once that goes into production models, things will move rapidly.

  • Most CEOs do try to stay out of the spotlight. Those that are more in the spotlight at least try to do some positive PR and not rock the boat too much. Security through obscurity if you will.

    Of course Musk and Zuckerberg are some of the few that dance with the devil in the spotlight and have made their company/ies their whole personality. They paint their faces larger than life on the company and then act surprised when people take it personally.

  • He does the Nazi salute on the big stage and it shocked when he gets a collective middle finger salute back.

    On the other hand, he went with Trump. Everybody going that way gets burned, used up, and thrown away. That things wouldn't work out was expected. It's also suspected that Musk would be used as the wrecking ball to crush institutions and when the inevitable problems arise, Musk would be blamed and tossed aside to keep the rest of the regime in the clear.

  • In the long term, the domestic industry may grow to the point that it displaces the imports

    That's there idea, but the on-again-off-again tariffs policy creates such an uncertainty and lack of customer demand nobody wants to invest.
