Disagree here.

Task-specific robots will be 10x cheaper and better, so they will happen first.

Starbucks has automated their coffee maker.

Then they will automate 'order taking'.

And a series of robots to clean, make, serve coffee probably with specific functions.

That's it.

Everything will be automated so much I think 'humanoid' robots will remain a bit of an elusive fantasy, always 'just over the horizon'.
