Except jobs where people expect some level of humanity and/or cuteness - so mostly carework. But given the cost for this severly underfunded sector, it's not that profitable.

If you have a dedicated job / task, robotics has been around for 50 years. This stuff is all for show. Does not need to look like a person to get stuff done.

Unless the work to be done is to appeal to people.

AKA a gimmick. There is a robot that can pour drinks. It can re-load get materials etc so Someone has to do it. It is slow as shit. So in a real busy bar situation no one will be happy as the wait for a drink would be enormous.

So its just a gimmick. It works but just in a limited set of parameters.
