True talk. In the toilet scrubber industry, there's new AI stuff that they tout will replace us. Self driving floor scrubbers. Mobile pressure washers that can scour a bathroom. Industrial sized roombas. Etc.
Well, my business got talked into trying out one of the auto floor scrubbers. The floor in question is at the top of some stairs, generally accessible by janitorial staff via an elevator. From what I am told by those who witnessed it, IN FRONT OF THE SALES REP, the fucking scrubber went down the stairs like ED-209 in Robocop. Wish I could have been there to see it.
I may be a stupid man, but I can say I've never sent a 70k piece of equipment tumbling down some stairs.
Musk's robots are the closest thing to usable and even those fuck up constantly. We are decades away from any kind of Bicentennial Man, and that is still telling it what shit is and how to clean it up.
