@65dBnoise It's called cheap labor. I remember people laughing about the idea of burger bots replacing workers at fast food joints, but that is a reality now.

Elon’s goal is to build a cheap robot that can replace human factory workers. It's that simple.

Companies would pay for this & while it would not usher in a utopia, it would increase unemployment (at least in the short term).
