Of course, even if we include non-humanoids, AI has made much greater progress in a much more limited time. I'm sure if we take into account the speed of development between robotics and AI, we can think that AI development is at a much different level.

That's true, but I don't know how much we can infer from early rate of adoption. Robotics are capital intensive and have a much larger marginal cost, than an information technology, so it's not surprising there's a big difference in adoption rates.

Absolutely! That's exactly what's wrong with Asimov's universe. AI is developing much faster because it reaches more users at less cost and generates much larger revenues. While robots are specific to the people who will use them in the field they are built for, AI can be accessible from all over the world through a domain, a hosting and a data center. A great perspective!
