RE: 10 Robots Pulling A Truck Uphill - Sorry, I Didn't Find A Better Title For This Video
Hey, @dragosroua.
I have to hand it to the folks at Boston Dynamics. They make some of the most fascinating robots which leads to amazing videos. However, if by SPP you mean robots pulling trucks, I feel like that would be a step backwards. :)
However, if the truck was driving itself and the robot power was somehow running it on the inside, that could be cool. :)
I guess I need to find out how much these puppies go for and just what other applications they have. I mean, if they can weed flower and garden beds, replace fence, wash dishes and do laundry, I might be in the market for one. :)
You really made me laugh there, do all those? That's no more a robot, that an Irobot, you remember the movie.
Hey, @ghenghisla.
Glad you laughed. As much as I would love for some robot labor to take over my chores, we're just not quite there yet, which is fine, because I think we go from that straight to the robot apocalypse people seem to be worried about. :)
And yes, I do remember that movie. I like it a lot. Programming and engineering robots to do specific tasks, and only those tasks, is one thing, and something I would generally be okay with. Giving them the ability to think—I don't know. I think the line needs to be drawn before that. :)
