We had you guys who are in our discord server talk to us about this exact question. Is the human form factor for robot a good idea? And we got a lot of really interesting responses. Just a little asterisk, this is on discord. So this is discord audio, just a bunch of people talking to their computers. But also a it goes really well, and there's some really fun there's soe questions and answers. It went way further than i was ever expecting. Iid uye, it got completely ste all prices level. Ye, it's fantastic.

This week, Marques and Andrew discuss the new, slightly crazy announcement from Tesla: the Tesla Bot! Tesla Bot is a planned humanoid robot that will be able to help people with everyday, boring/repetitive tasks. But this announcement begs the question: is a humanoid robot really the best option? Marques and Andrew debate that conundrum, as well as read questions from the community Discord to see how people think Tesla Bot might help humanity in the future.
