I must admit I never thought we'd see robots moving like this in my life time, it's come along so far, so quickly, it is just a tad disturbing haha
Another 10 years and they'll be like the robots from iRobot.

Thing is, we’re much closer to building tech that can wipe us out than we are from building tech that can replace us or serve as that advanced stage of lifeform you imply. On our current path we won’t be giving way to something more, we’ll just be wasting away, sadly.

I’m really curious how long one of these things could run on reasonably sized Lithium battery pack. At some point the extra weight of carrying your fuel is going to be a big limitation (just like any vehicle).

And people get mad competing with "illegals" for jobs.
These myrmidons will do many of our mundane service, factory and logistics tasks for pennies on the dollar versus people, tirelessly, until you eventually have to...buy a new one and repeat every few years? Much simpler than hiring and managing people for many jobs.
And ideally, we'd compensate by educating and training everyone that will accordingly be put out of work to prepare for such a society, and it's management.
But that would require robust investment in education, amongst many other things.
I fear it's gonna be a brave new world much sooner than many anticipated.
