It shows the state of the world that if someone said there's a bunch of human killing robots on the loose there's no guarantee the column in the cons would be longer than the pros.

The new ones getting very i-robot isn't it.....

Does make you wonder the stuff they're working on they DON'T show you.
Actually the first thing that came to mind was Terminator 3. I'm pretty sure that's exactly how the T-X moved.
The RoboCop movement was head first, body second sort of manoeuvre. The Boston Dynamics robot reminded me of Murphy. smile

A bit like the Humans series on Channel 4, the actors playing androids had to learn a way to move and act that wasn't like a human. https://www.vulture.com/2015/07/humans-robots-synt...

If you've not seen it, Lex Fridman did a good interview with Marc Raibert about Boston Dynamics and it's history. I found it interesting smile

I would be more concerned if the serial number on it was 24564 rather than 00001.

I hope they don't get it to talk with an Austrian accent.
