    All factories with human workers are optimised for human movement as much as possible (5s etc). It benefits the factory.

    It should be pretty obvious why a humanoid robot that can do anything a human can do, could be easy to implement in these factories.

    Although I would think it easier to just redesign the factory to operate without humans, than to design a humanoid robot to replace the humans.

      That’s the point the other guy was making

        Nope he said factories were not designed around humans which is factually incorrect.

          He said humans are not designed for factories, not the other way around. That’s not the same thing. Factories have been designed to take into account our physical shortcomings, but it’s obviously not perfect and industrial accidents are still a thing.
