"It feels like there’s a 50% chance that Threehalves is well-executed piece of parody that sat on the internet for more than a year before it found the audience it was looking for, and a 50% chance that it’s someone’s fever dream of a killer app that will never actually be built because the people involved both lack the capability to make it and its use case is so strange and limited that there would never be a genuine market for such an expensive, unwieldy robot."

The article ends satirically with - "MAGA adherents have also been so thoroughly conditioned by the likes of Elon Musk into unthinkingly surrendering their lives, independence and critical thinking to AI and robotic automation, that I could just as easily see the MAGA hordes lining up in support of the horned, chainsaw-wielding demon robots the moment Musk or Trump tells them to do so." :mastodance: https://www.jezebel.com/threehalves-robot-real-or-fake-demon-centaur-evil-satyress-danger-manual-labor-horns 6/n
