A human robot is a robot you can put everywhere were a human can be.

this means it's seen as the holy Grail for a / the generic helper.

You build it once and replace any human manual laber task.

Basically you show the robot what it does by just doing it a few times and than the robot takes over.

Specialized 'robots' are closer to an assembly line someone needs to plan and design who knows how to do so and knows how to think like this.

Easy for an engineer hard for a normal human.

And when you look at.the progress it's not far fetched that this idea is close to become reality in the next 10-20 years.
