Unfortunately the robots are from Boston so they are also extremely racist.

We're watching objects moved around by computer code so there's something about that that's exactly like every 3D animation we've ever seen, doesn't help that the environment looks like what you would do if you faked this... blow up the outside, very reflective surfaces to "sell" photorealism. And it's filmed with a steadicam, the cam looks like it's on rails. What I'm saying is this is most definitely real but it looks exactly like it would if you faked it. This probably says more about how far we've come with computer graphics than with robotics. Don't get me wrong it's a cute dance but I can sit right here talking poo poo about that robot and it still won't hunt me down and turn me into biofuel. 3/5 Bronze Fonz fucked around with this message at 04:24 on Dec 30, 2020 |

Coffee's still gonna be watered down garbage though, you think they pay fuckbot to make coffee?

This would be a couple orders of magnitude cooler if it wasn't murder technology specifically designed to make wars of aggression and killing of poor people politically easier to sell to the electorate. Like, when I see Japan present a robot that can lift grandma 10% faster that's kinda cool. This is just plain depressing and creepy.

This is 100% CGI, look at that jump in the beginning. If they were capable of such advanced moves there would be way more videos of them doing impressive poo poo

Mooey Cow posted:The idea that it would ever be cheaper and more practical to murder people with a robot than just other people or a bomb is pretty funny The most important problem for war mongers today are human casualties because they create political pressure to end conflicts and withdraw troops too early. Soldiers coming home in coffins is really bad for business. Everything boston dynamics makes has the same problem going all the way back to big dog (witch was financed by DARPA btw) and it's that there is no major market or application for this stuff outside of the military. They are basically incrementing on the technology untill it is ready to be sold in mass to the military as weapons platforms, support equipment and for logistics. They are hoping to revolutionize land warfare the same way that drones revolutionized air support/strikes and make an astronomical shitton of money in the process. I mean, don't get me wrong, the robotics research they are doing is really impressive and has a lot of general value. But it's just sad that this isn't coming from a civilian university doing basic research with public or pubic funds.

Mooey Cow posted:The idea that it would ever be cheaper and more practical to murder people with a robot than just other people or a bomb is pretty funny The February revolution was made possible after disaffected soldiers stopped following orders, at first simply allowing rioters to pass through them, before joining the revolutionaries and raising arms against their former leaders. In the modern world there isn't likely to be a unified revolution, but it seems very likely that there could be huge amounts of seperate and conflicting guerrilla militias. The US military has already proven that they do a poor job of taking such things out even when they can hide what they are doing from most of the world. Domestic groups would be far better armed and whatever happens to them would be much more difficult to hide. All human soldiers carry with them some sort of ideology or affiliation that can make them more sympathetic to some groups than others, and both individuals and groups could easily switch their allegiances away from the military to any one of the militias if things start getting bad enough for the people they care about. Hard to maintain control in such a situation–and even harder to maintain the illusion that the military is working for the national interest rather than the interests of a very select subsection of the nation. Doing away with the human component would make that control much easier to maintain, and concentrate it in the hands of a much smaller leadership group. Potentially it could allow one person to gain complete and total control of the military apparatus with no need to maintain other's loyalty. Even without society crumbling that sort of "power struggle at the top" situation is worth considering. Billionaires being able to build their personal militaries and genocide squads without needing to convince anyone to join them or give enough bribes to keep their force loyal.

Also, video is neat because it shows that the balance on these things is getting pretty great. Bet that guy who kicked the robot over in that video sleeps pretty lightly at night

Equally inevitable in your scenario is hacked killbots murdering their former owner at the behest of an opposing force. It's just obvious enough that even the lovely leaders we have now will think twice about putting all their eggs in one basket. It's likely that the technology won't be used in a scenario like yours until there's at least two competing companies making the machines. Until then, it'll be supplementing human fighters.
