    Tech Boston Dynamics next generation Atlas Robot

    Boston Dynamics have posted a new YouTube video of their latest generation Atlas Robot. It's very impressive.

    I think we're going to have to deal with the subject of robot ethics at some point very soon if they keep advancing like this.

    It can't be long before my sex robot is coming off the assembly line.




    i had no idea where to post this, could we add an AI/Robots/Autonomous Device section?

    It's brilliant how advanced they are coming, I remember someone posted the one of the dog type one running.

    I think what's scary is as soon as a gun is strapped to that thing we are in terminator territory.

    Millions spent to simulate a drunken, disgruntled employee?

    I want to be able to configure my own ladybots clout. Would go for one big flap and one small and then call her Nemo.

    I'm going to specify a hand whisk where her cunt should be, for frothing up my cappuccinos and to improve the volume of bubbles at bath time. I'll exclusively use her roborectum, which will also double as a micro sd slot.

    That's what I found most disturbing, I actually empathised with the robot. That's why I mentioned the bit about ethics. Robots will need to have rights, especially when you mix their physical abilities with any kind of general AI that no doubt is coming too.

    Anyone feel like you were watching jason and the argonauts? When the robot was getting up off the floor it looked a little strange?

    He was a nasty cunt with the hockey stick...
    I was disappointed the robot never had a piss up a tree in the snow too.

    We might have all enjoyed that, but at this rate there will be no Human Jobs in the future... Whilst we won't be directly affected, our kids or grandkids probably will.
    It could tackle the influx of immigrants mind.
