Elon Musk's Optimus robot has been coming to work in factories "by the end of the year" for over five years now.
It's just another unsubstantiated promise he reuses every year just like the long promised full autonomy of his self-driving cars.

And here I am wanting nothing more than to upload my mind.

The forums are still very good platforms for automotive content and troubleshooting. I assume there are other fields where this is true. The etiquette there was always to lurk and learn before posting. Here, not so much.
There's still great places here and even on reddit to find information, the key is just to focus on finding places where people enjoy the subject of the forum XD
But yeah, lurk lurk lurk, unless you have something of value (or funny) to contribute.

That ship's already passed, women have been loving on hand-held robots for decades now. I would bet that some women love their buzzy little friend more than the man in their lives.
To the point of marriage?

He calls me clanka, he calls the other kids clanka, he calls himself clanka. All the time. "Clanka this", "Clanka that", "Clanka, please", "Bitch clanka", "Clanka, have you lost your mind?", "Clanka, check that ho", "Clanka, you bullshit" and "Break yourself, clanka". He says it so much, I don't even notice it anymore. Last week in lunch, Optimus said to a classmate, "Can a clanka borrow a french fry?" And my first thought wasn't "Oh, my God. He said the word, uh, the C-word". It was now "How is a clanka gonna borrow a fry?" "Clanka, is you gonna give it back?" I'm telling you, my inside voice didn't talk like that before he got in my class.

Pure propaganda. "Make the people who don't believe in AI Genies sound like bigots, say they have slurs."
You can tell when boomer americans try to make up something "the internet is doing" because it always sounds like some 1900s huckster shit they saw on TV between paint chip snacks

There was a guy who married his DS (yes, a Nintendo DS) so I could see this happening. marrying something that isn't even alive is just weird

Slur requires a group of disparaged people to whom the slur is targeted. Beep-boops with no intelligence ain't fucking people.

Ask them, I'd bet you'd find some takers.

Toasters is, and always has been a better insult.
It needs to be plugged in, temperature set, then a button to turn bread into toast.
Basically calling a machine simple, single purposed, restrained, and relatively unconfigurable.
While fairly dangerous when left unattended.

It's also a device that is demonstrably better without AI. So you're essentially saying that they would be better as script driven assembly arms.

I'm actually surprised he hasn't started working on Fusion since that's similarly always just a few years away. It has been since the 1960s.
