A.I. is not just computer code. It’s an artificial mind. Once they figure out how to dump that into a robot that doesn’t faceplant everytime it tries to do something useful, the trades are cooked.
That’s not the hard bit tbh, you don’t need a humanoid robot, you need specialized robots for different tasks.
The real issue is that 1) machines are still more expensive than humans and 2) the AI you’re talking about is language models, it knows nothing about building except what it can read in the books. We’d need to train entirely different AI models to handle construction, and they’d ideally need to gather data first by building actual buildings.
