Generic robots are potentially faster to configure and set up in many different environments, and they're more accessible, no? If I wanted a specialized robot right now for my small business, I'm not even sure where to begin. But if I could just order a bunch of generic robots off Amazon and tell them what to do, that would be great. Sure, specialized robots would outperform them, but for many tasks, that would be overkill.
