If my robot folds my laundry correctly for 99 days and on the 100th day shreds my wardrobe, I don't think that will print money (at least not for very long).
From what I’ve seen FSD makes minor mistakes that at high speeds lead to danger or death. I can’t see a minor mistake in folding laundry leading to the laundry being shredded. Musk said the robots would not be strong (only can lift 5lbs). So unless the robot picked up scissors it couldn’t shred the laundry.
FSD has not been rolled out yet, so you’re attributing to FSD some errors that are actually made by humans. Yeah maybe these humans were confused by marketing to think it was FSD, just as you think it was FSD, but that doesn’t make it FSD.
Tesla is quite literally selling a package called "Full Self-Driving". I don't see how it has not been "rolled out yet" unless you're confusing Tesla's bullshit marketing lingo for level 5 autonomous driving.
A robot that folds laundry would obviously have torque limits while handling clothing, so the prospect of destruction would be minimal.
The error domain of a laundry robot would be misidentifying an unusual item and incorrectly folding it, or incorrectly sorting it. If someone sold a humanoid laundry robot which folded and sorted my clothes correctly 99% of the time, I'd consider that miraculous.
Sure, that would be bad. So it only needs to be good enough to fold correctly for 99 days, and then on the 100th day just do nothing (i.e., detect a problem and hard STOP).
Then a hard reboot will kick it back into line and we're good to go again.
Obviously that's not good enough for driving a car, but it certainly is in all the manual labor jobs I've ever had.
Unless I’m missing something?
