Is The Future General Purpose Or Humanoid Robots?

Google DeepMind recently released the RT-X model, a comprehensive robotics model designed to extend and apply its aptitude to diverse robots and tasks. This has sparked interest in humanoid robots like Unitree’s H1 and Tesla’s Optimus, which are designed to perform a variety of tasks. Specialised robots are also on the rise, with Beta Tank Robotics Pvt. Ltd. building a robot to clean petrochemical tanks. RT-X was trained on the Open X-Embodiment dataset, which covers a wide range of skills and tasks.
