    “AI-powered” and “20 foot robots” are not phrases that should be used in the same sentence. Also, surely leasing an autonomous robot for $20k a month is more expensive than leasing a regular machine and hiring a worker or two to operate it. Construction workers aren’t paid anywhere near $240k a year, and you’ll need someone with an emergency stop button watching the autonomous robot anyways.

        I thought the rich had an interest in replacing everyone.

        Presumably their end goal is to reduce the human population to themselves and their mates.
