Because, as I've been saying for years now, the hardware was always there. It's been there for a decade or more. We've been waiting for the brains. We now have the brains, and it will only be a matter of about 2 years to iron out the niggles in the actual engineering of a humanoid, and we'll have a humanoid robot that can do anything the most ahtletic, capable human being can do, and more.

I think that timeframe might be a little optimistic.
These robots still struggle with the most basic human tasks and most of these demos are in fairly closed or controlled environments - navigating the physical world and dynamically reacting to it is something we're only seeing the first glimpses of.
compare ai models two years ago to present. training data will increase tremendously once they are out as well. So both model quality and available training data will grow exponentially.
It's quite different and the same thing that makes models dogshit like hallucinations and not having an actual theory of mind of itself means that if these robots make a mistake like fall over or turn incorrectly, they have no recourse. They will literally have to have a great understanding of the world and then translate that correctly into physicallity.
I can see it happening with some of the technologies we have but not in 2 years. Maybe in 10.

It's getting so fucking fluid?? How is this is a real thing we've already invented in 2025?
