Here in Perth, the company FBR invented the mentioned robot that precisely lays brick by brick, regardless of weather conditions, day and night. Currently, they are testing bricks from Xella. The robot has already completed two bungalows and two single-story commercial buildings ready for occupancy. A two-story house is currently under construction. They are also in negotiations with Wienerberger.
What is your opinion? Do you think something like this will eventually become widespread wherever it is technically (access) feasible?
There are several videos about this on YouTube.

So... if you want to put it provocatively, advances in robotics and technology don’t only bring blessings to humanity. A prominent example are mobile phones—especially for children. What exactly do you mean? I can track my child, I know what they’re discussing with their friends, and my child can reach me anytime if they need. Those are advantages. The downside is that I have to deal with technology to make it child-safe. But that’s on a similar level when it comes to bicycles.

Also: look at lifestyle diseases... There will surely be robot physiotherapists for that. They treat you while you sleep. You don’t notice anything and wake up as flexible as a 16-year-old.

And if we push robotics and AI further, soon robots might sit in “court” and judge humans? That could at least provide genuine neutrality. The question is whether we want that.

And if grandma needs care soon, we’ll just send a “Pepper” robot to her home because it's more convenient. It’s actually better if children and grandchildren can take care of the person instead of being so exhausted from caregiving that they just want to go home afterward.
Given the underpaid and sometimes grumpy care staff, I’d rather have a robot do everything in the future. At least I can yell at it or even hit it if it messes up.

Of course, you can say that having a “Pepper” robot in the household to assist can help people stay in their familiar environment (longer). - Exactly!

(Home) care is demanding—not only physically but also emotionally. I believe robots and technology can offer valuable support. This does not mean that those in need of care are left to manage on their own. It can be exhausting.
Helping someone out of bed, morning personal hygiene, dressing, carrying or bringing everything needed throughout the day, cutting food, assisting with bathroom visits, putting on a jacket, and so on. Every small detail, such as grocery shopping or scheduling a hairdresser appointment, must be carefully planned. One person is quite tied to the home. If dementia is involved, the situation becomes even more challenging.
This cannot be compared to caring for babies. With babies, you know things will improve month by month. There is understanding and empathy. Complain that your child is teething and you didn’t sleep for three nights, and you receive sympathy. Complain that your father or grandmother has severe outbursts, soils the bed, wanders off, or insults you, and you often face a lack of understanding.

I am in favor of technology. Bricklayers have a poor reputation. Masonry technicians, who are responsible for ensuring that the robot works properly and is correctly programmed, are regarded as much more skilled.
Care work involves many tasks that are difficult and time-consuming, leaving little time for interpersonal interaction. Many people who leave the profession do so not because of low pay, but because they lack the time to sit down with the patient, hold their hand, and be present.

The printer can build up complex shapes layer by layer. Imagine, for example, that no more chasing of walls is needed because installation channels are already integrated. [...] If you then also consider that a printer might be capable of working with multiple materials simultaneously, the possibilities multiply. I don’t see this happening within a few years, but the principle allows for it. That already exists, as I saw yesterday. When I looked up the Hadrian X on YouTube, I was then offered more videos showing houses printed with concrete as if it were buttercream, and instead of chasing, gaps were left.
