Why, when you have the ability to build robots of any shape or size, would you want to build a humanoid robot in particular? Are they just lacking creativity? Or is being humanoid just hype, like dotcom or AI?

Because the human body is capable of so much more than a design that would be super useful for one, single thing.
In other news, self driving cars will be reliable and trustworthy in 1-2 years.
