Robo taxis are a thing.. but not much of a thing and it's not Tesla.
Even if robo taxis appear, how much money do people think is in taxis? Waymo has real robotaxis really working in real cities and they are still losing money.
Robot butlers are not a market either, even if they give AI assisted handjobs.
Oh robot butlers would be huge, but no one is even vaguely close to that. All the demos have been remote controlled, demonstrating that can make dumb robots, but that's not really new...
