Advances in computing power will make some robotics applications feasible: hopefully that leads to advances we long hoped for in fluidity of motion and adaptability to the self-presence and the environment that come all too naturally to animals and humans (after some practice).
Make robots affordable alternatives to illegal immigrants or foreign factory workers and they'll be everywhere. Right now the R&D can't remotely compete so it's just tech bros acting like they're developing it to get seed money and sell to whomever will buy them later. Smoke and mirrors.
Tesla FSD (Supervised Self Driving) is arguably a robot with fast precise responses, in a computationally constrained environment. This is using a similar end to end neural net architecture and is being generalized to their Optimus robot.
