I'm invested in a startup that is doing something unrelated robotics, but they're spending a lot of time in Shenzhen, I keep a very close eye on robotics and was talking to their CTO about what he is seeing in China, versions of this are already being implemented.

  I have no doubts that is the case. Just look at this new Unitree robot that was unveiled a mere 6 hours ago: https://youtu.be/ve9USu7zpLU?feature=shared https://youtu.be/ve9USu7zpLU?feature=shared And these are consumer options, affordable to you and me, not only to some military. If those are the commonly available options... there may be way more advanced stuff that we haven't seen.

    this stuff is old tech, and has nothing to do with transformers. The Boston Dynamics style robot dogs are always shown in marketing demos like the one you linked in secretly very controlled environments. Let me know when I can order one that will bring the laundry downstairs for my wife. I asked for real examples from someone who claimed to have first hand experience, not more marketing bullshit

    Gr00t works but it is not a standard yet. Can't share what I have heard, but the success rate is still far behind than other methods.

    lol I thought this was going to be the receipts but no, I guess asking for evidence is against the rules! y'all are in a religion

      Calling someone a liar without evidence is kinda rude.

      I genuinely have no idea where you’re coming from on this. You’re assuming way too much about everyone you disagree with
