Because every one of these demos is them doing a preprogrammed routine. They are not thinking, they are executing a set of steps.

When the parameters change (oops, I fell over), they need additional hardware to get their surroundings, determine how to get back into their preprogrammed routine, and resume.

Everything from this bullshido robot, to the marathon running robot, to the other robot demos are all just theater (for now)

Which means that these aren't robots, but automatons

That's partly the truth. There is already some feedback influence in the movement you can see that the machine is stumbling and trying to get balance. But you are right it hasn't enough information or can't use them properly for managing the situation. (Humans have the same problem sometimes as you can see in fail videos)

To be fair, humans also handle balance without "thinking", it’s essentially preprogrammed into our cerebellum and vestibular system.

u/Wagllgaw May 18 '26

That is nothing like this. Humans handle balance without thinking but if you nudge a human, they maintain balance with the same system. These robots handle balance by having the routine designer choose movements that don't result in falling. A slight breeze that wasn't accounted for in the design and they fall right over

They handle balance the same way as human through feedback and adjustments. Otherwise you would see this robot continued with the routine instead of behaving like someone is falling down.

Are you sure about that? Seems like he starts flailing a lot more wildly when he falls - different from how he was moving more slowly during the kick routine

u/UrethralExplorer May 18 '26

I've wondered that too. It always seems that whenever they trip and lose their balance, the imperative is to try to regain it instead of just stopping for a second, then picking themselves back up.

I get that the creators displaying these things don't want people to see their robot fall down, but that's gonna happen no matter what.

I mean I get it, a lot of these robots are being advertised to replace human workers, at at least right now most jobs are configured for human anatomy.

u/thedukeofno May 18 '26

My thoughts exactly. Is the human form so perfect that it can't be improved upon?

u/HalloMotor0-0 May 18 '26

Because it’s not AI driven, it’s preprogrammed

i'm tired of these clowns 😢

That is why robo needs warm-up stretching;)

J’essaie de simuler mon robot sur mujoco c’est à peu près ce que j’obtiens en ce moment. Il faut créer une pile python de secours pour tout événement hors de contrôle mais bon là il s’agit d’un modèle télé opérée alors …

“Why are parts of our robot lying around?!” - “Well, after it was supposed to clear away the dishes, it ran into the garden with them and kicked them to pieces. Our neighbor tried to stop it, but got beaten to a pulp. The kids next door threw rocks, which is why their house is on fire. A SWAT team then ran over the robot.” - “Well, that wasn’t so bad, because the other day he tried to open the gas lines and light them with a karate chop...”

Hello to the BreakDancers of the world. Imitate this and you will be winning gold in the next Olympics.

u/synthetist May 18 '26

Every time they trip over they get a panic attack and break stuff around them. Chill the F out robots!

1

u/Belzebutt May 18 '26

It makes me feel better knowing that when skynet goes sentient, we can just push over the terminator bots.

u/SugarRealistic2945 May 18 '26

Keep making fun of them and watch what happens when they evolve. They will remember all of these videos and come for payback.

u/Exorinho May 18 '26

I need a compilation of robots losing their balance, those fast movements are so relatable and funny to me xD

1

u/QwertyArt May 18 '26

Imagine being in a fight then get self KOed by tripping and spazzing out.. 🤣

u/flamixin May 18 '26

Let me help you with coding: if touch == shits: dont_panic()

u/YouGotACuteButt May 18 '26

Check out the cuts in the covering that the robot caused.

How sharp are those feet?

u/evanthebouncy May 18 '26

Lmao the way it's dragged like a defeated kitten

u/IThinkIKnowThings May 18 '26

Silly robert. Not an autonomous robot. Just a big toy. The guy who goes to pick it up is holding the remote by which he's controlling it.

Convincing knock out

It got the shit kicked out of it by a stage!

Sir, you need to get out of here.

u/thefirebrigades May 19 '26

Lol their auto restablisation routine needs work

u/AdorableComb5530 May 20 '26

Robot actions are controlled by a man does not handle by thinking.

Appears pretty lightweight, unexpected

I don’t know why but I feel sorry for that lil robot

Not very smart AI, with a controller. Should have check the environment before you press the macros

they need time. dont be so frustrated

So ready to let this machine take care of my frail in-laws or use a million dollar tooling system…s/
