Redefining the problem space is what might make these AI type solutions possible, though. Massive standardization in components, assembly units, etc., for example.

A BD type robot would not be effective in a typical work site today, but change how the work site operates and then it may.

Think when the very first personal cars were introduced. Just the state of the roads, and the roads that were available, made the idea of every family having one or two to use for themselves totally crazy.

Just a few decades later everything is now paved and transportation organized around these vehicles. So now they are perfectly possible.

I'm just throwing thoughts out there.
