Well, it is very impressive, but still a very long way from what a real animal can do. What if the obstacle is at the edge of a canyon? It will suicide :D . Those tests are very restricted, but even after they will think the robot is ready, there will be cases they have missed in which it will fail.
- icebraining 11y agoWhat if the obstacle is at the edge of a canyon? It will suicide :D Not to worry, the drone flying ahead will already have mapped the terrain :)

- SuddsMcDuff 11y agoRobot suicide, what an interesting prospect. I can't think of any surer sign that and entity has achieved consciousness, than when it makes the decision to end its own "life".
- crusso 11y agoMeh, programs suicide all the time when they access memory locations not in their space. The contentious nature of consciousness is in the "makes the decision" part of your statement, suicide is pretty mundane as far as decisions go.
- rbobby 11y agoBaby steps. A fully terrain aware robot will be very complicated. Breaking it down into discrete goals only makes sense.
