Boston Dynamics mission is to imagine and create exceptional robots that enrich peoples lives. Building machines that can approximate the mobility, dexterity and agility of people and animals is a grand challenge. Curiosity and respect for the natural world are at the heart of our work on robots. We see products derived from this work as the next step in the human history of building machines to reduce the danger, repetition and physically difficult aspects of work. This is the future of the human race guys. Robots that act and think like us. This is a demonstration of their robots doing parkour (1m6s) https This is a video of their robots doing a funny dance (2m54s) https |

How do you feel about robots and A.I? I feel it will eventually cause the end of the human race

Well, they can certainly dance better than me.

When they become self conscious were obsolete.

This is evolution and I bet it happens all over the universe

I can't really think they will become sentient tbh. They will do many tasks and put many people out of work though. |

Oh A.I is already here

I remember seeing an entire rock band made up of robots. The music was crap if I recall correctly. They are called Compressorhead.

@ crail - 5.10.22 - 11:00pm Oh A.I is already here Yep. But whether the robots will have a sense of self is another thing. Follow code or instructions yeah..learn to think for themselves? Nah.. |

They are machines and can only do what they're programmed to do. Yes they can operate wirelessly but even the world's most advanced supercomputer works within mathematical law.

Yeah they're like toasters at the minute but that will change. Imagine an army of these fkers
|

An army that could be switched off wirelessly in a second. We already have armies of robots working for us, they're at the mercy of their controllers because they can never have a desire or will to do anything. No matter a computer's capacity or ancillary equipment it can only be dependant on physical law. |

Wrote something about this years ago.. AI playing at being human is like some Japanese guy adopting Western culture/style.. it will be painfully obvious that they don't belong. |

Well this is what BD have done in 30 years of research. What's it going to be like in 300 years

heard there's a version of the Spot robot dog that's equipped with cameras and sensors to patrol areas like US Mexican border. also heard something about a sniper robot/drone variant. not sure that it's still Boston Dynamics making them. edit: it is Boston Dynamics... ok that's seriously killed off their cool factor for me if they're gonna be a weapons manufacturer. http://www.archyde.com/boston-dynamics-robot-dog-spot-becomes-a-sniper/ |

Boston Dynamics visited the site of Everton's new stadium to demo their Spot robot dog described as 'an agile, robotic dog used to navigate terrain and automate routine inspection tasks and data capture safely and qccurately'. The thing had dog mannerisms ffs

When I see dog checking gauges and valves on powerplants and oil and gas platforms, then I will be impressed.
