I asked ChatGPT, Claude AI, Gemini, and Siri about humanoid robots in 2025, and the responses shocked me
- A journalist asked AI companions Gemini, OpenAI's ChatGPT, Siri, and Anthropic's Claude AI when people might see humanoid robots in their homes. Several responses suggest that, while highly advanced robots are possible, versatile robots that are affordable for the average consumer to have in their home are still a long way off. Artificial intelligence, battery life, and cost remain the top obstacles in the development of humanoid robots. Most of the AI companions also suggest that 2025 will see more prototype humanoid robots in labs and more advanced research and industrial robots on the market, but little for home use.
- 2024 saw a lot of humanoid robot development from Boston Dynamics and Tesla among others, fueling the journalistic inquiry.
- OpenAI's ChatGPT suggests that the rise of humanoid robots is possible by 2025, citing the rapid progression of robotics technology alongside advanced AI development as potential causes.
- Anthropic's AI, Claude AI, offers a more grounded and clear-headed view of the future of humanoid robots, suggesting they will remain in early stages of development and be limited in functionality as they mostly lack versatility.
- Both Gemini and Claude AI suggest that those seeking humanoid robots in their homes will be disappointed. While there are companies, like Tesla and 1x, that are developing these kinds of robots, neither are likely to be available to consumers in 2025. Building artificial intelligence capable of understanding and responding to complex and unpredictable home environments is still an enormous challenge.
- Battery tech, hardware compatibility, and cost remain significant obstacles to consumer adoption of humanoid robots, which require millions in development and can cost a minimum of tens of thousand dollars to buy.
- Despite a discouraging outlook for home companionship, there will be no shortage of advancements in robotic technology to be had. However, a fun potential 2025 sight at CES is about as much as we can hope for.
- Siri, unfortunately, was unable to provide a response due to misunderstanding; this highlights the continued limitations of current AI technology.
- Lastly, the article notes that humanoid robots remain a topic of fascination for consumers and a topic of research for the broader tech community.
- As for the author, having both a robot assistant and being ridden upon fantasy, reasonable or not, remains a dream.
