I’m imagining a future where we have robots that are somewhat humanoid. They’re not necessarily bipedal, but they at least have arms that function similarly to ours and some means of locomotion.
They’ll watch humans work, and function via mimicry. After seeing a human install a couple of panels they will have collected enough data to have a high degree of confidence in what’s being accomplished. They’ll be intelligent enough to determine intent - not just mechanical motion - and even intelligent enough to proactively ask how and why if something is ambiguous.
Come to think of it, this should already be possible as a virtual assistant, but I’ve not seen anyone building it.
