By 2026, we should have humanoid robots in private homes helping with laundry, vacuuming, and the dishes, at least in beta testing, says Peter Diamandis. By 2040, there could be as many as 10 billion globally in all areas of the economy, and their labor might be as cheap as $10 a day. “If you lease it like you lease a car, a $30,000 car, your price point per month is 300 bucks,” says author, futurist, investor, doctor, and engineer Peter Diamandis in a recent TechFirst podcast. “And that translates amazingly to $10 a day and 40 cents an hour. So you’ve got labor that’s waiting for whatever your wish is. You know, clean up the house, go mow the lawn, you know, please change the baby’s diapers.” Today of course most robotic manufacturers are focused on building tools for labor: warehousing, logistics, manufacturing. Just recently we’ve seen Digit by Agility Robotics get a paying gig, followed by Figure’s latest shipping model, Figure 02. But in the future, they’ll be everywhere in our economy, Diamandis says: in healthcare, manufacturing, the service industry, public and urban spaces, transport, even entertainment. This is such a transformational change that analysts don’t yet really understand how to estimate its value: Goldman Sachs says selling humanoid robots will be a $38 billion space by 2035, while Ark Invest says the resulting economic value of their labor could be as high as $24 trillion.
