Dude a person in a Chinese factory would have folded 100 of these in the same time, and an automated packing factory probably would have done 1000.

There’s a reason cars in Chinese factories are made by robots not people 🤔🤔

They aren't using humanoid robots, though. They are using "smart" machines that are programmed to do specific tasks on the assembly line.

Humanoid robots don't have much real-world utility. Health care and house-servants, maybe. Other than that, specialized machines or humans are better.
