It’s the worst in everyway imaginable. I cannot comment on it’s capabilities, but the fact that it records the environment and can be taken over by a remote worker is simply too much.
Literally just slavery with extra steps. You can be damned sure those extra steps exist solely to keep the poor at a distance and the robots are gimped so they can’t be used against the rich slavers.
My god what a horrible ad. Everything from the people to the robot seems like bad acting. The girl trying to juke the bot out was hilarious
And wtf is with the choice of “ain’t no sunshine when she’s gone” for the montage of assembling the robot?
Right? The whole thing made me uncomfortable and it wasn’t cause of the droid
Looks like the beginning to a Black Mirror episode.
Everything I see the robot do in this video falls into one of two categories: enabling people to be even bigger lazy, entitled pieces of shit or kind of a stretch for its level of dexterity.
This thing is gonna start so many fires
I guess it’s cheaper than a full time live in maid?
…is NEO anatomically correct? Can I upload my AI waifu into it?
I do wonder how many people say “NEO, jerk me off” completely forgetting it’s controlled remotely at some Indian call centre.
Win-win!
The robot in that thumbnail has already seen some horrors
The very first thought when I saw the photo of it:
I am Groot!
So, i CAN’T fuck it?
No one ever said that.
wow_mao did a good breakdown on this in his most recent video.
but on a more serious one: marques bownlee made a level headed video on this: he noticed only 2 basic tasks like opening the door and bringing a cup to the kitchen were done automatically in the clip, everything else shown in the clip was a remote controlled robot. it’s ai needs to learn A LOT of things, like different fabrics, how to stack dishwashers, how to even differentiate forks from knives… now every household has it’s individual items and so on. he compared it to teslas self driving which was actively beta tested by the users and learned this way. but roads are far less complex than a household. and tesla works because they sold millions of cars while this robot will be a 20.000$ beta test for a small amount of people and it has to learn a lot of different thinks on a significantly smaller userbase. then there’s privacy: you have a walking robot in your household which records stuff and sends the data to a server outside of the user’s control.
basically it’s a tech bro pipedream.
nice video though.
