I think you’re underestimating the mechanical and chemistry problems that still need to be solved before autonomous robots that can perform a task like ship salvage effectively. There’s a very good reason that basically all industrial robots spend their lives plugged into a wall socket.
I feel like maybe you didn’t understand the point I was making, which was the hardest part is the AI. Since everything else is easy because once you have the AI you automatically have all your other problems solved.

Ah you’re right, Boston Dynamic’s Spot robot tours entire factories and refineries all while being plugged into a wall socket!
