      This is really a terrible example, though, because the robot does basically one part of a bricklayer's job, and doesn't even do it much more efficiently considering the cost. But it's early-phase tech, and it will soon get better and more sophisticated.

          iirc, this was an attempt to reduce the manual work involved in bricklaying, which often has health consequences. i.e., it’s coming from a good place rather than from a “oh I can build a robot for that & disruption!”

          From the video it seems like there's still a lot of lifting and manual loading.

          There’s a few of these being built, but one of them just takes a whole pallet of bricks, no loading involved (other than what can be down with a forklift or pallet mover)

          And it’s not just the heavy lifting, it’s also things like sunburn, dehydration, cancer (from sun exposure); but the heavy lifting is a major factor. Essentially, this is being designed for human good, rather than, like food delivery robots that are pure capitalist hell
