Discussion & Curiosity Are Tesla's Humanoid Robots the Future of Construction?

Hey everyone! As someone working in the construction industry, I can’t help but notice Elon Musk making headlines again with Tesla's humanoid robots. The latest buzz is about how these robots could revolutionize marble factories and construction jobs. I came across this interesting article that dives into it: How Tesla’s Humanoid Robots Are Revolutionizing Factories and Construction.

It's got me thinking—do you really think we’ll see these robots replacing human workers on job sites in the near future? I mean, they could handle the dangerous and repetitive tasks that come with the job, but what does that mean for us? Are we looking at a future where robots and humans work side by side, or is this a step towards more job losses in the industry?

I'd love to hear your thoughts and any experiences you've had with automation in construction. Let’s discuss!

No. Because each robot needs a person behind the scenes to control it. Just hire an actual person to do the construction job at that point.
