That's the supposed benefit, but to do that you'd have to make them more cost-effective than just having humans doing the job, which so far has completely failed to happen. Unless I missed something, there are a whole bunch of breakthroughs that haven't yet that'd be required for that to work.
UniTree produces humanoid robots for around 12k a pop already. These types of robots can already do lots of useful jobs that humans used to do. It's not some future thing that requires breakthroughs, it's happening already. Here's one example https://peertube.mesnumeriques.fr/w/jNakB3B5dRoeJkShnVRgDk
This tech is rapidly improving, and it's only going to keep getting better going forward which means robots taking over an increasingly wide range of manual labour. Machine learning is also advancing rapidly right now, and new things are being figured out every day. These types of breakthroughs are happening on monthly basis right now https://github.com/sizhe-li/neural-jacobian-field
