I don't get it...

These humanoid robots are expensive. Unskilled labour, housework seems to be the lowest ROI for them.

Factory work, dangerous tasks or skilled tasks I can understand that the robot can pay for itself, but you'd wear out the machine before paying off its labour on work like this.

I get the future angle for usage after population collapse means we need more bots to take care of elderly populations, but NOW?

Housebots don't seem practical.
