AI is panacea to everything, like any nacent technology, haven’t you heard? AI will also solve the housing affordability crisis too so you won’t need to worry about that…right?!? Funny how anyone older than 20 knows the way power bends function.
It would make an excellent story plot to watch AI solve simple issues that the wealthy don’t want to be solved and then be decommissioned.
A rough breakdown of the overall costs of building a home will look like this:
Labor: 40%
Also, I’d bet that it cuts into materials cost, because you don’t need to provide the material in a form convenient for a human to handle.
I’ve seen people creating habitations with large-scale 3d printers, but that’s not really a practical solution. It’s just mechanically-simple, so easier to make the robot.
I don’t know if it needs to use what we’d think of as AI today to do that. Maybe it will, if that’s a way to solve some problems conveniently. But I do think that automating house construction will happen at some point in time.
I’d love to give AI my job, but then I’d be homeless.
I should clarify that I’m not against AI as a technology. I’m against it making me poor

I mean, realistically, I do expect someone to put together a viable robotic house-construction robot at some point.
