That's just the shell. Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, cabinets, roof--the rest is still built by hand and no, robots can't do it.

Also, 3D printed buildings are failing, and very few have been built, they're just experimental. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRLqld_jD_g

Maybe eventually, but I doubt we'll see a house built entirely by machines from the bare ground, with the sewer and water system, electrical grid, roads, sidewalks street lights, etc. installed, to hand-over-the-key ready in our lifetimes.

I think many people imagine this is just around the corner is because they don't have a clue what goes into such a project.

Don't take this more seriously than it was meant.

Therr isn't even anything "AI" in it, just more robot work.

The printer doesn't just appear, it takes a crew a week to set it up. Few years later and they are already failing and companies are drying up

The design is also made by a human, an AI would just make gibberish
