This looks AI generated the way the arms explode

Why didn’t other robots come to sweep it up?

To be fair, this may be about as well as a run would go for me if I tried.

The most terrifying thing about these robots is their insane power density. If you were walking around and saw that you wouldn’t feel at risk. It has the strength to tear its metal and plastic body to dust. We just saw it. No human could do that, yet these robots deceive us with their human like appearance. The slightest twitch, error, our bug and they turn into human meat blenders killing anyone around them. Even worse is intentional harm by the owner… And the manufacturer will often have an override access letting them theoretically possess a robot army at will with only their good virtue stopping them. Elon Musk is about to have this… The future is going to be a weird and dangerous place!

If you look closely you can spot the exact moment where the robot gained sentience and chose to self destruct rather than live as a dancing monkey. It really is amazing how fast tech advances these days

This whole video feels kinda AI generated, is there a news story associated?

Basically the entire humanoid robotics industry in a nutshell rn. I would know, I’m in it lol The CGI videos from Boston Dynamics are way overhyped. Half the shit at the superhyped national lab I’m at is broken because someone measured once and cut twice on the wires and the robot tried to bend an elbow lmao
