Hey, Robot Atlas Keith. Drive to 1654 Crestwood Lane and change out the compressor in a 5 ton condensing unit. Charge to specs after checking for leaks once the lines are sweated. Leave invoice on the coffee table and report into dispatch for next appointment.

That's going to put cheerleaders out of business.

Seems like they should start with a Johnny 5 style robot that’s more manageable.

Make it smarter and all that, but also make sure we can control the tech before building one with ninja skills.

That robot still has to make 200k, be 6’ tall, make plans, and be emotionally compatible.

Can't wait till they can do everything.
Men can just offer sperms. And hunt and fish all year.

I wish I knew how to hack.
I'd love to hack that thing so all it does is clean backflips and nothing else. And it doesn't stop. Until its batteries fail.
They replace the batteries, reboot unsuccessfully, and it's back back flipping.

Why would I fear an American made electronic? It's going to break in 6 months.

Feel free to prove me wrong, but until I see it with my own eyes I'll be convinced this is AI. Pretty much every video Boston Dynamics has released about this thing over the last couple years looks fake as hell. But maybe I'm wrong.

People on the internet kept making fun of this robot, but it kept perservering and look at it now! I think it's inspirational.

Hell no. I'm getting on the waitlist for one. I want a robot to clean my damn house for me.
