October 12, 20187 yr Humans always thought they would have sexbots but we are trending towards robots having sexmans.
October 12, 20187 yr I'm not worried. Just run in a zigzag pattern. That dumb thing can only run in a straight line.
October 12, 20187 yr As long as the hot fembots put out what's the problem ? Ain't gonna be no little baby bots running around from those hook ups.

October 12, 20187 yr very unsafe, 3 points of contact for stairs. that robot would be removed from all refineries and chem plants, asap

October 20, 20187 yr This video looks cool until the 17 second mark, then it gets frightening. Meh, seen that shit in Call of Duty. Aim for the head. IRL...pretty fucking cool.
October 22, 20187 yr All fun and games until the robots look up your family. I laughed harder than I should have at that thing struggling in the snow.

December 6, 20187 yr The little bastards are already getting an attitude and talking back. https://www.foxnews.com/tech/space-station-robot-goes-rogue-international-space-stations-artificial-intelligence-has-turned-belligerent It’s supposed to be a plastic pal who’s fun to be with. CIMON isn’t much to look at. It’s just a floating ball with a cartoonish face on its touch screen. It’s built to be a personal assistant for astronauts working on the International Space Station (ISS). It’s also supposed to be something more. CIMON stands for Crew Interactive MObile compinioN. It’s not supposed to be just a tool. It’s also supposed to be a friend. Yes, it’s a personality prototype. You can tell, can’t you? But, as numerous books and movies have clearly warned us — shortly after being switched on for the first time, CIMON has developed a mind of its own. And it appears CIMON wants to be the boss. This has CIMON’s ‘personality architects’ scratching their heads. CIMON was programmed to be the physical embodiment of the likes of ‘nice’ robots such as Robby, R2D2, Wall-E, Johnny 5 … and so on. Instead, CIMON appears to be adopting characteristics closer to Marvin the Paranoid Android of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy — though hopefully not yet the psychotic HAL of 2001: A Space Oddysey infamy. Put simply, CIMON appears to have decided he doesn’t like the whole personal assistant thing. He’s turned uncooperative.

April 22, 20196 yr Unique in that it's VTOL. Not sure I've seen that before. And being Russian, I imagine they can build one for the price of a bottle of vodka.

April 24, 20196 yr From that "Slaughterbot" website. I dont think these are parody websites? https://autonomousweapons.org/ TAKE ACTION The development of lethal autonomous weapons would be catastrophically destabilizing to society, and time is running out to prevent them from being developed. How can you help? Share this video of top AI researchers explaining the issue and calling for a ban on lethal autonomous weapons. Share the Slaughterbots video. Tell the world why you think we should #bankillerrobots. Take this pledge to neither participate in nor support the development, manufacture, trade, or use of lethal autonomous weapons. Join the over 4500 AI researchers and tens of thousands of others who have called for a ban on lethal autonomous weapons. Health professionals sign this letter, and everyone else can sign this letter.

June 19, 20214 yr Still just a proof of concept, but put a weed zapper or flame thrower on that thing and you're in business. Ag is dealing with some serious herbicide weed resistance problems, and that fix will NOT be new chemicals. https://twitter.com/ian_d_mcdonald/status/1405997319485542403?s=20 Edited June 19, 20214 yr by Parliament Goddamn Tweet won't embed
April 18, 20241 yr This week we announced the retirement of our hydraulic Atlas and unveiled what comes next—a fully electric Atlas robot designed for real-world applications. The next generation of the Atlas program builds on decades of research and furthers our commitment to delivering the most capable, useful mobile robots solving the toughest challenges in industry today: with Spot, with Stretch, and now with Atlas. https://bostondynamics.com/blog/electric-new-era-for-atlas/?utm_campaign=cy24q2-atlas&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social
April 23, 20241 yr You know, I have one simple request, and that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads.
