What do you mean, as entertainment? Most people currently seem entertained by these.
But this is just getting started.
As helpful androids? Sure, can it one day clean my house and do my shopping? I’d buy one (though I suppose they would have some awful privacy problems).
As military robots? Can they one day operate a tank? Carry and fire weapons? I can think of a few people that want that.
I imagine a display such as this drives Elon mad with the dismal human-dancing-in-a-costume display he put on for his completing product. If true, I want this.
I absolutely want to see robots automating hard manual labor. I also want to see affordable personal robots that can take care of all my chores so I can enjoy doing things I’m actually interested in.

Does anyone actually want this? Like it’s kind of interesting but is it actually something anyone wants?
It’s a demonstration of capability, not utility.

Well there you go… I guess I am in the minority on this. I don’t want these things anywhere near me or my family.
But yes I can imagine cops loving the idea of these things crushing protestors throats in the street.
Yes I can see some really altruistic uses for these but they’re outweighed by the malicious ones.
Like RING cameras and the other brands, would be super cool to help locate lost children and elderly but bad people are going to use them for fascism.
