They retired the old clunky one they have been working on for years

The race between them and Tesla will be interesting but Tesla seem so far ahead with less time invested

After 11 years, Boston Dynamics is saying goodbye to Atlas, the humanoid robot best known for its (somewhat unsettling) dance sequences and impressive backflips. In a video posted on YouTube, the robotics company says it’s time for its hydraulic bot to “kick back and relax” in retirement.

Robots on the big screen are cool.
Robots in real life creep me out...

We're so fricked as a species and we're just continually digging this AI grave.
These humanoid robots with next generation AI. What are we thinking?
Goldblum knew.

I wonder if they'll wipe away all evidence of our existence?

The video in your link, "Atlas Struts"... 
Anyway, as these get better these robots will be great for fast food, assembly lines, and other menial repetitive task.
They surely will be able to offer better service than Wendy's, Popeye's or McDonalds'. But Chick Fil A?

Do you want Skynet?
Because, this is how you get Skynet.

I get they want them to be relatable, but really designing a robot to be like a human outside of the hands doesn't make a lot of sense.
Give them 8 arm/legs where they can stand up or crawl around like a spider and hold multiples tools, etc.

I hope Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics are built into these creatures.

Are you aware of Figure? They are the real competition to Tesla and they've partnered with OpenAI, Microsoft and NVidia recently. The Figure 01's most recent demo after adding OpenAI AI to the mix was pretty impressive. Robots look ahead of schedule and I would not be surprised if they start becoming available for home use by the end of the decade.

The robot jackboots of the ruling class, free of the pesky emotional ties that prevent human jackboots from firing on their family and neighbors.
Can't wait.
