The world is made for general purpose humans including vast amounts of factory space. There will always be things for a general purpose robot to do that'll be cheaper than designing and manufacturing a low volume bespoke robot.

Like Amazon is trying and building robots to do a lot of picking, but they can't even fully automate that.

It's more a question of can they solve it (huge if) and even if they do, how many can they actually sell.
