Tech startup Sanctuary AI has unveiled a general-purpose robot designed to perform many workplace tasks currently handled by people â working with humans or without them.
The challenge: Robots have worked alongside people for decades, and traditionally, theyâve been incredibly specialized â a bot on a General Motorsâ assembly line, for example, might move pieces of metal from one place to another over and over again.
This has meant business owners would need to purchase multiple (usually expensive) robots if they wanted to automate multiple tasks.

Itâs as though Musk views in-person work as a kind of hazing ritual â he and others did it, so you have to do it too. Well, as my mom frequently said when I proposed doing something dumb because others did it, âIf all your friends jumped off a bridge, would you?â
Picture this: Musk standing on the precipice of the Golden Gate Bridge, urging us all to leap into the frigid waters below simply because he took the plunge. While his bravado might be admired by some, itâs not a practical or sustainable model for the future of work. Hereâs a thought: rather than Muskâs daredevil dive into the deep abyss of forced in-office work, perhaps we should consider a more measured, flexible and hybrid approach to work, one that incorporates both remote and in-person options, as I tell my clients.
