I don't know why people are impressed. Robots are hard and this is a big step forward but it's still useless. This is far from being as functional as automotive manufacturing robots or even vacuum cleaners. This is nothing like the goal we're striving for with these things. There's very a long way to go until this does what we want.
- zorex 2y agoWhy not be impressed? The reasons you gave are enough for the majority of people following along. The exciting parts are the steps along the way. Once we have something that is actually usable and integrated into our everyday lives, it will lose its novelty fast.
- guerrilla 2y ago> Why not be impressed? Because it's obviously useless and a regression from the kinds of robots we already have.
- zorex 2y agoSo that means we just stop innovating and not try to go beyond what we already have? This is not regression since this has no effect on the robots we already have, industrial robots are on their own innovation branch. These are prototypes, a glimpse into the future at what's possible with more experimentation and technological progression.
