#1 They are missing the obvious: such an AI would be invaluable in a humanoid robot.
The way to have such an enormous and computer intensive system available is to not try and limit the robots brain in its physical body.
Keep its local brain just for physical operations, movement, sensors and navigation. Then, in the area, connected to the robot by WIFI, would be its "midbrain", which could be like a dedicated PC. It would be what would have terabytes of storage and RAM, along with several powerful microprocessors. Here is where you keep its AI.
Finally, the PC is connected to an "upper brain", a very powerful computer system kept by the manufacturer. This would be used to handle unknown and unexpected problems, to access external information like Google, and for safety features. |
