Humanoids are much cheaper than a car or an ev to manufacture at scale - the economics for humanoids is potentially very scalable and efficient. The solid state batteries are remarkably dense too, and battery replacement via dockstations has already been implemented in some models.

The hardware is great and can definitely scale. That's why as a caveat I think teleoperation is a good general purpose application cluster for these.

But I really struggle to come up with any other economically viable short-term use cases, even with great hardware...
