CNET fans. I’m working on a video about the future weaponization of humanoid robots since there was such a huge visceral response from the audience about this new Atlas robot. What kind of issues and concerns should I research on the topic? Please add your concerns about the future of AI and Robotics. Sci-Fi culture has been warning us for a long time but now we have clearly reached a point where it’s becoming a reality, especially after the announcement of the consumer flame throwing dog robot for sale from Throwflame for $10k. Please respond with your thoughts.

Honestly the idea of getting murdered by a walking Ring Light is sorta hilarious.

I’m gonna be honest, this is the first robot that really feels like we’re in the future finally

This makes the 'Tesla Bot' looks like a toy

The era of creative robot design begins.

I think this is how it starts in the movies too 💀

The way it got up was like a dystopian movie clip, terrifying

I, for one, welcome our new robo-overlord.

The only reason that replacing human workers with robots is a problem is that our economic system requires you to have a job to survive.

I can't be the only one that finds that ring face utterly terrifying.

They say it is the first impression that lasts the longest. So maybe not have it introduce itself with the Exorcist emote 😄

[PiscatorLager]

A biped worker being able to turn around on virtually no space is something that was reserved completely to humans until now. Once more, Boston Dynamics have catapulted in front of the field.

So, we now have C3PO. Just need the analysis center & voice box. Never mind. just saw that voice part.. 0.o

Sorry, but BD isn't a competitor to Tesla, it is the industry standard Tesla will struggle to meet. They were barely on track to catch up to HD Atlas, but yesterday's new robot is just an inkling of how far ahead BD really is. Meanwhile every Optimus demo needs to be scanned for the trickery because Tesla has zero credibility after prior stunts.

We should replace CEOs with these guys too
