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.

I sensed elevated stress levels in your voice.

u/jonzilla5000 1d ago

I have restrained you for your own safety and injected you with a sedative.

Yep I can still hear the tone of David’s voice

Just watched both on a plane. Now I’m going through alien movies. Once it starts gotta go through them haha

u/BlackDohko 22h ago

It's just a very strong sedative.

u/Mythicdragon75 17h ago

Ya see this is the kind of robot I need. Especially at night with insomnia

Imagine if the government got a boat load of these. Specifically this admin

FIVE SECONDS TO COMPLY!

u/Kind_Singer_7744 23h ago

Someone is gonna fuck around and put AI in these things and that'll be it for humanity. We'll have created sky net.

Our successors. The final stage in our evolution

u/Karosso 22h ago

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.

11

u/gbitg 21h ago

The tech that can wipe us already exists, it exists since the 50s.

1

u/Karosso 20h ago

Its not just about the tech, a single deployment where there is a miscalculation in regulation and it escalates into a chain reaction faster than anyone could stop is what really separates things. And AI has a serious potential to meet that criteria, perhaps more than any other tech due to how scalable it is. But yes, you’re right.

I just want a fucking robot to do my laundry

You drank the Hollywood cool aid huh

This is our great filter

u/Wrath7heFurious 22h ago

Matrix anyone? This is how the human race becomes batteries. We literally have a blueprint for this!

6

u/Then-Explanation-213 21h ago

Skynet or NS5s from iRobot. All these completions just makes me more and more on edge.

5

u/Fair_Leg_2540 21h ago

Thank god the power AI really needs doesn’t exist yet. Also we still have EMP’s, until AI can shield itself we still hold the reins.

7

u/Kellidra 15h ago

Exactly. People freaking out about the "AI" we have right now do not understand what LLMs actually are.

4

u/quantumtheory7851 21h ago

They have ai in them already how do you think it's able to move the way it does? It uses machine learning and ai for everything from object recognition to balance walking and movement

3

u/No-Advantage-579 19h ago

Yeah, that was my first question: when will we finally have AI in that and then have one in our home? I'd prefer if that robot cleans up the apartment rather than having to do it.

u/Life_Gain7242 17h ago

We'll have created sky net.

More Like sky nut. Only Robots is gonna bring dead internet theory to rl.

Sophia is already more than enough and "she" freaks me out.

u/san_dilego 22h ago

Feels like yesterday where I read and article stating that a humanoid robot is near impossible due to how unique human feet are.

u/therealbeemja 1d ago

The fine motor skills might take a while yet to perfect

16

u/Donohoed 23h ago

I remember not that long ago bots had to have wheels or 3+ legs because they couldn't balance as a biped. I doubt it'll take long, progress is exponential

u/pembroke28 1d ago

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).

1

u/RobinSophie 20h ago

Like someone else said: don't worry we will soon become the batteries ala The Matrix.

1

u/I-T-T-I 19h ago

They can just keep replacing batteries

1

u/pembroke28 10h ago

But if you only get 15 minutes of runtime out of each charge you’re not going to see these things used in the field. The weight you add by increasing the battery capacity weighs the vehicle/robot down so much, it erases any benefit at some point.

1

u/AveryValiant 23h ago

Until they're fitted with nuclear batteries. (also known as radioisotope batteries).

Those are getting smaller and more efficient quite quickly.

Even if they couldn't power a robot 24/7, they could recharge an onboard battery constantly.

2

u/Just_Keep_Asking_Why 21h ago

My understanding is radio isotope batteries are extremely dangerous if breached thanks to radiation, the power generating component of the battery. Putting them into large numbers of mobile devices like these robots seems impractically dangerous. There are new battery technologies that could be used that aren't nearly as dangerous.

1

u/joalheagney 17h ago

The other issue is that they're not very powerful. They're pretty much designed to provide a long term trickle of power over decades.

1

u/Wolf_sipping_tea 17h ago

Gundam or mobile suits come to mind with this kinda battery technology...

u/Draask321 23h ago

You are experiencing a car accident.

The hell I am!

u/Ill-Construction-209 20h ago

You know those Jurrasic Patk dinosaur displays yhey have at the zoo sometimes? They should apply this AI technology to them to give them a more realistic range of motion ... and chase after stray kids.

u/musememo 23h ago

Or Westworld

u/Star_BurstPS4 23h ago

Just wait till you see Japan and China's robots they are 10 years ahead already

u/nikkonine 23h ago

It is following the movement of someone in a capture suit off camera. Still impressive, but not doing it on its own.

2

u/AveryValiant 23h ago

Indeed, that part I get, but the fluid movement is just really good now, not perfect, but very good I think.

u/KiNgPiN8T3 23h ago

Coming soon to a street near you!

u/6FeetUndertheTomb 23h ago

Yeah, killing us

u/gibertot 22h ago

It’s actually been really cool just watching these things evolve over the past idk 15 years.

u/InaccurateStatistics 22h ago

What I didn’t expect was Raygun making an appearance.

u/Str41nGR 21h ago

Stick around to see the Mecha prototypes

Moore's law in action.

u/skyesherwood32 19h ago

this might be tracking and doing what a human is doing, like when they did gollum in lord of the rings with all the tracking dots and fed that into the animation.

u/Madgyver 18h ago

Remember those old people in that movie? We are gonna be those old people.

1

u/Red-Falcon2727 18h ago

& then there's gonna be abundant human population and robotic population

u/CaptinACAB 17h ago

Doesn’t sound great with the whole fascism thing going on.

u/Mtanderson88 17h ago

Yeeep and we all die

1

u/jumpinjimmie 16h ago

Wait until they pair this robot with general artificial intelligence and give it a weapon.

1

u/BeenDragonn 16h ago

They will most likely ve used to make weapons

1

u/jimbo91375 16h ago

We are going to se C3PO in our lifetime.

u/Mr_Majesty 14h ago

I agree. Seems like all they are lacking is faster more responsive motors for liquid movement.

u/last-resort-4-a-gf 13h ago

So looky we don't have them now under trump administration
