"What is my purpose?"

"You open and close drawers."

"Oh my God."

Somewhat relevant: when I first searched for those videos I searched for "robot that tests Ikea chairs by sitting on them" or something. I got lots of results, but every one of them was about robots that were building furniture, not testing it. To actually get the results I wanted I needed to say "furniture testing machine".

So, I guess the Internet doesn't think those are actually robots, so they don't worry about their purpose.
