If HW3 does not achieve FSD would you accept a Tesla Bot driver as compensation?

And yes this poll was a joke.

If the bot is unable to drive, that is going to be a pretty useless bot. Elon himself said the bot was intended to eliminate “dangerous, repetitive and boring tasks.” Driving definitely fits that description!

Would you accept the bot if it had to sit in your lap so you can be ready to take over?

Bots... laps... this thread just went full-circle.

I want Tesla Butler Bot.

Surprisingly we kind of do. I have some Smart Home stuff and a Google Home Mini. It can understand many requests and activate the devices. I can say "Hey Google, turn on the TV and set the TV to channel 32, and open the garage door in 25 minutes, and broadcast 'everyone down for dinner' etc" and there's a huge number of other devices and commands for all sorts of things. They can order stuff - but I haven't set that up. No reason I can't add a connected vacuum. There may be a connected device that brings simple things to you upon request, or if not it shouldn't be that much of a stretch to see one be developed. There's Segway robots, and probably affordable walking robots too.

As to an all-encompassing object that does it all, not that I know of. Just a collection of individual objects with somewhat central controllers. Maybe there is an affordable mobile Google Home-type assistant, not sure, but it's probably fairly doable to some degree. Perhaps Tesla can do it.

This has got to be a joke comment. You're basically kicking the rock down the road and now using BOT cameras/etc. instead of the car and even worse, relying on a BOT for input to the steering wheel and pedals. Geez, what can go wrong w/ that especially a wheel with a YOKE! LOL. If the car couldn't do it on it's own with much more simplicity, why would the Bot do it any better?

very clever, young man, but its turtles ALL THE WAY DOWN.

That is the tough one. Thats the one I want - something that can do physical work - which would include not just natural language processing - but also vision, perception, routing, obstacle avoidance, picking up an object from the fridge without knocking anything else etc.
