I thought this was the greatest product demo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R40IDdAkRZM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R40IDdAkRZM I struggle to imagine what the US version of this intimidating propaganda movie would look like. My mind renders only pictures of square dancing.

China is absolutely crushing everyone mostly across the board in technology these days. It's comical today, but will just be embarrassing soon. The only bit visually we see China a little behind is AI but I suspect they have much better closed/unreleased models, and the fab/chip space, but they'll close that gap in a short few years I'd expect.

This is amazing! I WISH somebody would take 15 seconds of this clip, add China flag in the bottom, then add scratching sounds of a vinyl disc and forward to this, with Felon Musk/American flag: https://www.reddit.com/r/robotics/comments/1ph3scw/tesla_optimus_faints_when_operator_takes_off_vr/ https://www.reddit.com/r/robotics/comments/1ph3scw/tesla_opt...

  Unitree is doing everything Boston Dynamics is doing and more without a physical safety barrier between the robots and the humans.

    Perhaps but but it doesn't matter. They have better production capabilities and more experience with drone swarms.

    Yeah, that's the most impressive thing about this performance, the robots were safe enough to "interact" with children. Even if we take into account the smaller size of the robots, it's still impressive, a bad input at the wrong time could easily cause of one of the robots to seriously injure someone, the fact this didn't happen and the producers and the company were confident that it wouldn't happen is the real breakthrough moment.
