Robots only half as efficient as humans, says leading Chinese producer
Customer: Ok, I’ll take two!
But if they can work twice as long, it’s a wash.
Work harder, not smarter!
A dishwashing machine takes easily twice as long as you to wash dishes.
But it also does the dishes without using as much water as you do.
We don’t want machines to do our dishes while we create art!

I work in the food industry. Our plants have robots. They replaced humans 1 to 1 in areas like pick-n-place: take the food from a conveyor belt and put it inside a packaging.
They can do that really well, but when you try to put them to taste a product, or to inspect the presentation of the product, or to diagnose why that so well functioning robot is not working properly, they will fail miserably.
A robot will only replace a worker that doesn’t need to have a brain to do their work.

So… Politicians, CEOs, and immigration enforcement are next then?
Unironically, a CEO, whose job is basically taking shots at spreadsheets would be a good candidate to be replaced. As well as many of the useless managers that only see numbers, not people, and take decisions based on those (frequently with less than decent results).
Critical thinking is an important factor for humans to do tasks efficiently.
…now imagine building an entire fleet of robots who lack that ability and attempting to perform a 1 to 1 replacement.
(There are definitely places and fields where automated machinery works brilliantly, but places where tasks require fine motor function and judgement generally aren’t a good fit)
Ask Tesla about their fully automated factory.
In the late 90s a bot could guess who you were thinking anout based on some questions
Today they can do a bit more that that… a bit more
Wonder how things will be in 2050
