    That’s extremely impressive. As soon as these can do this stuff on random surfaces and with spatial awareness then we are probably past the event horizon for some significant, scary and futuristic shit.

    Very nice

    Also very scary as this is just the next step after what Boston dynamics has already shown. You can bet your ass that military leaders are jerking off over these things

    Granted, their battery life will still be Abysmal but that too is being resolved over time.

    I’m not afraid of self aware terminators. I’m afraid of sad dictators with tiny penis syndrome getting access to shit like this in, say, a decade from now.

    Now that’s what i call a flex of your technological power between tradition and modernity. Fantastic performance.

    Random thought, I know it’s still better to not have wars at all, but future wars would be nicer and more fair if losing meant receiving a knock-out kick in yo nuts from a martial art master robot instead of being killed by random boring drones.

      Yeah I treated all of the stated limitations of MIT robotics projects for the next 25 years as universal & wasn’t aware of the progress in manufacturing + logistics until say 2019

    We really do live in the cyber punk dystopia predicted. It’s just way less neon lights.

    Looks nice. Not excited to be fighting to the death on some random hill surrounded by a thousand of these.

    Why do they look mocap and not robotic? Like if it’s a robot, the movements should be far more efficient and literally robotic looking. This just looks like “look, we can make them execute scripted macro movements with micro auto adjustments”. Which is an achievement in itself, but not exactly as advanced as this video suggests at face value. I could be wrong, but something about it feels off to me and this is just my guess as to why.

      because that’s what this is. Premade animations choreographed and scripted.

      BUT

      Do you have any idea what insane technology in soft and hardware is neccessary to make this happen?

      this is beyond impressive, and China is way ahead of everyone else. Electric cars, Robotics, Renewable energy, medical research, Drone technology. The west needs to get rid of the incompetent conservatives that cling to a world that no longer exists or the west is the new third world.

    Well at least they seem short so we should be able to just throw them or kick them over with ease

    Does anyone actually want this? Like it’s kind of interesting but is it actually something anyone wants?

      I absolutely want to see robots automating hard manual labor. I also want to see affordable personal robots that can take care of all my chores so I can enjoy doing things I’m actually interested in.

      I imagine a display such as this drives Elon mad with the dismal human-dancing-in-a-costume display he put on for his completing product. If true, I want this.

    Are we sure this isn’t AI made video? This looks so unreal to me. Last time I saw human robots, they didn’t even go up in the staircase.

      it would be very very good AI made, and i have seen those robots do these things in tech demos before, so they definitely exist.
