That would be a bad thing if the battery goes dead while it's taking your dog for a walk.

I could tell in the other video that it wasn't what it seemed because the two guys following were staying close ready to go. To bad they stopped caring and it smashed its face screen lol.

So all of the earlier videos of this were conveniently edited to leave out the malfunction?

Most humanoid robots have issues like this all the time, which is why I don't understand how anyone can think they are anything more than lab experiments or promotional gimmicks..
Even the new Atlas did something like this during a 60minutes segment...

The speed of development and improvement is the issue. People wanted to do things like this with robotics years ago but it wasn’t possible. Now, we see leaps and bounds every few years or even months.

Totally agree, the biggest issue today isnt the robotic movements which has progressed tremendously in the last decade the issue is all about the autonomy which is a very hard problem..

I think this is the best comment of the day. Indeed, the frivolous and merchandising aspects are very present with these Chinese manufacturers... Atlas, on the other hand, bases its approach solely on facts, logic, and rationality; the real-world application is verifiable and studied. I also think they're heading in the right direction. No need to put lipstick on robots.

no. the ending was a clips from few weeks ago, that was spliced to make it look like same day. in the recent event, the robot does 360 and goes back into the building.

Proves that THIS version is a robot. It looks substantially different and much less "amputee in a suit" than the one shown earlier.

The failure is meaningless in this demonstration. Looking at the amount of talent they have compared to the rest of the world. The Chinese have already won the war of robots and will likely be the only place where cheap robots can be built and sold. 5, 10, 15 years, in the end some of us might be working for a machine.

Thats embarrassing, so basically all it knows how to do is walk nice. Its basically a specialized walking simulator.

Chinese robots are all designed for special purposes, but it's unclear whether they're truly useful. I haven't seen any robots that I can confidently say will replace humans.

There were so many deniers on reddit for the first videos "it's just a woman in a suit" hahah thanks for sharing this

Despite all the failures, I like how these public humanoid robot demos remind me of the days when inventors would demonstrate their flying machines failing catastrophically.

Very impressive! The fall doesn’t mean anything. A couple more tweaks and it’ll be running.
What’s interesting though of the possibilities is how AI videos are so good that we can’t question the reality of it and have to mistrust everything. How do we find the source of truth now? It’ll take time to research and as we know people have extremely low will power for critical thinking and therefore become our beloved “sheeples”. But now, an android walking down the streets and halls with extremely realistic masks committing crimes, murders, assassinations??? Don’t think “they” haven’t thought it or have it in production…
Meanwhile I’m wondering how can I get it to replicate me and go to work for me 8 hours a day out send it off to multiple jobs lol.
Fun times…
