There are many amazing tech demos of software or hardware that never made it to production. Much better tech than we have access to in our day to day life was "demoed" in the 70-90s. Other than the demos being contrived, the products themselves were never scalable.

Honda's P3 never made it past a tech demo.

At this point, they are equivalent in the sense that they are both useless demos at the moment, but there is little doubt that the Tesla robot has better and more general software technology powering it than the preprogrammed P3 demo.

The reason why it is better is in that last sentence. General applications are a much larger technological feat than procedural applications.

I have lots of doubts. This bot is just another scam to prop up Tesla's insane valuation.

I have lots of doubts. This is a tech demo. You should doubt a tech demo. Kinda the purpose.

If you aren't doubting tech demos then your conception of reality must be quite strange, heh.
