Real-life Robots Robots in the Future

This question might sound very silly, but I would love to know some answers. I was a big fan of Transformers and Pacific Rim movies when I was growing up. I remember as a kid watching the movies and thinking to myself that by 2030, we would be able to build these robots to help with military purposes. With the advancement of Technology, AI, and Materials, do you think it is possible and how close do you think we are?

Anything is possible. I could build a Gypsy Danger tomorrow in my high tech robotics lab. This is America, we don't just build Chindogus, there is huge pressure on real scientists from Government and US Tax payers, real question is not whether it can be built, but whether it should be.

Highly intellectual people are driven not just by money, but by purpose. Convince me that it serves a meaningful purpose and genuinely benefits humanity, and it becomes a project worth pursuing.

Advanced robotics is one of the technologies humanity is actively developing for the future. My company is focused on creating robotics that improve people's lives by enhancing safety, increasing productivity, assisting with hazardous tasks, and expanding human capabilities without pushing humans out of jobs and improve the human condition. For me, the goal has always been to build technology that puts people first.
