It will only be a matter of time before the few remaining humans in the videos are replaced by additional robotics.
They are likely token humans, why do they need them to do that?

Somebody has to build, ship, program, maintain, and repair all those robots. The time to worry is when only robots are the ones building, controlling, and caring for robots. And I doubt we'll see that in our lifetime. ;)

Those are all simple tasks that could be accomplished by a dumb computer, even the example in this video can be accomplished with a very complex calculation which is something computers have always excelled at. Mainstream AI tech is is coming fast, it's going to be the equivalent of the industrial revolution. If this was the automotive industry right now they approaching the point of having very expensive toys for the rich, they only need to make it affordable and practical.
