That's just not true, you'd have to completely rebuild your entire production facilities which would cost more in the long run than taking say... Boston Dynamics Atlas and hooking it up to an LLM trained on a specific task set.

Newer facilities could be built for the future where humans aren't involved at all, but in the interim making robots that move and manipulate objects like we do is still the better solution.

That's already the case. Just look at a car factory assembly line, they're full of robots already but none of them look like humans.
