There’s no way Tesla robots will ever be good enough to do anything useful like house chores or whatever. MAYBE if he sells them with a subscription and it’s actually just some dude in East Asia controlling the robot. But then most people wouldn’t want them because now you’re paying random servants from around the world to hop into your house to serve you.
Actually as I was typing this I realized that is exactly the kind of disgusting bullshit that Tesla owners would love. “Oh yes see it’s not slavery because these people get to stay in their country and their homes and make a wage to be my servant! That means I’m fueling underserved economies! I’m saving the world with my Tesla Servant! Global economics! Together Musk is lifting people out of poverty!”
Fuck these are going to be wildly successful for all the wrong reasons aren’t they.
Oh yeah to be clear I don’t think they’ll work autonomously either. But you’re 100% right that all the wrong people are going to be able to pay Elon a monthly fee to have a servant from another country around the house.
Spending $100k to buy a surveillance robot servant remotely piloted by a child in Bangladesh is simply the price one must pay to not allow a poor into one’s house. If you saw the documentary Parasite, you’d know why we must take these security measures

Why don’t they put the children inside the robot and just have it shock them if they disobey?
Plausible deniability
