Why do these robots always seem like they're in some sort of agony?

>>59151750
they're testbeds, they're usually tested until they break. then after they break they're rebuilt only to be broken again.

Why is nobody kicking it?

All the technology in the world and we use it to pick up and move around boxes.

>>59152035

imagine if it network tethered with a quadcopter that had FLIR and could scan the area for all humans, allowing it to calculate a perfect strategy to exterminate all of them at the utter limit of machine speed, accuracy, and efficiency.

now imagine that there was 32 of these bot+quadcopter combos being generally operated and instructed by 3-4 people in a command vehicle that possesses long-fire remote missles, basically javelins that can fire off of the bots optics, and some of the bots had TOW missiles where most of them had .50BMG cannons, which, don't need much ammo because they basically don't miss.

you're looking at a robot battalion that would be capable of completely destroying a traditional enemy division. it would rapidly become something that can not be fought against. and it's not like nukes, where there are hard limiting factors to their use.

now visualize the continuing growth of neural networks and machine learning, as it continues to break barrier and barrier between what we have and strong AI.

wew lad.

Oh my God, that 80's-style freeze-frame end shot is hilarious.

But Jesus, Boston Dynamics, you can make an unnatural, self-balancing abomination, but you can't figure out how to use both audio channels?

by the time you make a helicopter large enough to carry that, you might as well use a single rotor.
... which is exactly what the MQ-8 Fire Scout is.

>>59151810
No. You know their cheetah robot? Because of high vibrations they used a USB flashdrive for storage. Because of high vibrations the flashdrive would fall out, so they HOTGLUED and kapton TAPED it in.

What's the difference between an elevator and boston dynamics' robots? Nothing really, only an elevator doesn't have legs.

Go ahead and kick that robot monster. It'll beat you up

>>59152181

the quadcopters aren't armed. they're just sensor platforms that accompany the bot seen in the OP video. the bot seen in the OP video is already capable of carrying a TOW, a .50BMG cannon, and 75 rounds of ammunition. this could essentially be implemented today.

who gives a fuck? are you implying they can't print or mold a plastic holder for the drive? these are prototypes, and how they get the drive to stick in there is irrelevant. it's not a problem. production models, once they have a customer, would have all of these trivial problems worked out.

boston dynamics robots are actually mostly brilliant because of the physics programming they carry.

it is. as long as the machine can interface with the mesh networking used in the JSF and larger unmanned units. the larger units can communicate to satellites commands from US bases.

What's the endgame here?

>>59151705
Now that they have gone and made legged and wheeled robots, I want to see flying robots.

>>59152193
I've been thinking about this. Once robots takes all the jobs and universal basic income is the norm. How will an individual make money? Make data? Or will AI take and do that too?

>>59152280

if you add satellites into the mix, now you can pilot/command these babies from nevada just like they do with the Globalhawk drones.

What will really happen is the people who control the robot manufacturing will create armies and fight over resources. They'll probably kill off the majority of the population for being dead weight.

Boston Dynamics is already a DoD contractor. One of the many reasons why google dropped them is because they didn't want any direct ties to DARPA.

>>59152530

as far as we're allowed to be aware, they don't have service models yet, they're still developing their plan on how to implement them.

bad enough the united states of Aids gave us a war on drugs, god only knows what the fuck they'll pull once they have robots that can own your ass.

or maybe once those robots become mass produced they wont need so many randoms to do all the boring jobs and ww3 will finaly start.

>diverse as 3 feet different on one wheel
All smooth. To ride over rocks, it would need to lock the wheels and walk, It would fall over, or get its leg stuck in between some rocks. Why are you dickriding this glorified science-fair project so hard when a single drone is singularly more significant than hundreds of these toys could ever be?
