We aren't going to get useful humanoid robots while understanding the implementation fully.
If you can't leverage AI to build a safe and useful robot without fully understanding the implementation, the model is not good enough.
There are so many assumptions in these two lines that I don't know where to begin. I wish you best of luck.
The humanoid robot was an example.
My argument is that if safety and liability make the use of AI without fully understanding the implementation impossible, the model is arguably not good enough.
A long time ago we decided as a society that in order for an engineer to sign off on physical designs, they have to take legal liability for them.
No such process exists for a model to take a design seriously that can kill people.

The practice of deliberately engineering software without full understanding of the implementation, especially when it comes to robotics, should be illegal. Technology serves society alone and it should progress at a pace that is sustainable for adaption. Your excitement for a “singularity” does not outweigh someone else’s health and safety.
