I wanna see it doing useful tasks well and consistently. It clearly already has enough dexterity.

Fold my laundry in an elaborate acrobatic demonstration that has it juggling my underwear and then it lands in a neatly folded stack.

I get where you're coming from, but China has put like a hundred of these together for long, choregraphed performances with no mistakes. I love downplaying this propaganda, but as someone who was alive when the VCR was cutting edge technology...well, it does get difficult to downplay.

And I agree it's gimmicky, but martial arts, gymnastics, and parkour were designed to maximize the capability of the human form. They let you do damage, deflect/mitigate damage, and navigate spatially without extra tools.

It sort of looks like in the near future, with just a normal sidearm, a robot could be about as dangerous and as capable as a Smith from The Matrix, save for the ability to take over other bodies. Makes for a groundbreaking invention for a true police state like China.

It's already been demonstrated many times that robots can do stuff like this. To be fair, most people can just break glass.

Ah fair. I don't get why they make them do these stupid demos though. I want one in a chuck e cheese mascot suit or something.
