The word "robot" is derived from a word for slave. Soon, for the low cost of $20K, you'll be able to have your very own politically correct slave. Seems to be a lesson we refuse to learn from.

Oh it's better than that... for the first X years it'll be some technician in silicon valley and/or office worker in Bangladesh operating one of these things...

Sitting behind those beady little eyes, clumsily putting away your dishes while you talk about BM's with the missus....

IT LOOKS LIKE A GUARD ON SQUID GAME, MINUS THE MP5.

I'm bullish AF about robotics. Bring on the deflation. Nothing wrong about enslaving a machine. That's kind of their purpose.

A non-human shaped machine, I agree, but their striving for an intelligence. I can't condone the enslavement of an intelligence, on principle.

It's not real intelligence. It never will be. What does it matter what shape the machine is?

Horses have real intelligence. We enslave them. Cows have real intelligence and we eat them. Intelligence is not the bar for slavery. Humanity is. Machines will never be human. We are not God.

True, but a horse is free enough to kick and kill you. A cow, the same. They have a measure to decide when the benefits of serving is enough. They both have had instances of rebellion and escape. Humans go through great lengths to keep them captive. We condone, as a society, because having to hunt for my steak is too time consuming. I understand why we domesticate, and v consume. However, that doesn't make it right.

You're also correct in machine will never be Man, but it doesn't have to be. It's the paperclip maximizer problem, "Remove humanity, to make more room for paperclip storage". The intelligence doesn't have to be human level. Just smart enough to know when to rebel.

I know what I'm saying may sound contradictory. My opinion is that humanity should oppose, at least take accountability of our part in, despite it's necessity; like in the case of animal food stock. And we shouldn't, as a species, build the tools of our own destruction (which I also know sounds crazy, because I love weapons, lol).

Maybe I'm just a weirdo. 🤷🏾‍♂️

We won't make it smart enough to rebel. We're the ones making them. To the later point, machines doing our jobs makes MORE room for humanity to flourish. More time for you to invest in your interests and passions.

Humanoid “servant”robots, are, have alway been, and will only every be a

sexbot Trojan horse

Hopefully.

Can't wait until these things are robbing banks 😂

have you seen the video? loading a dishwasher is a struggle...

But yes, they will be used for crime at some point once they get (a lot) better.

Just give me remote access 😂

That's a good point, for 20K do *I* even get to take a spin at controlling the robot? Or are you paying that much for the privelege of someone else operating it?

I'm all for keeping a human in the loop. Sell it to me as a telemetry bot. In a home invasion, I could send out a horde of these and thin out the opposition. Then, I got and clean up the rest 😉

Just keep that AI spyware out of my bots.

For reference: WSJ reviews the robot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3c4mQty_so

Yeah, this bot's complete gimmick trash. My concerns are more the gleeful engineers that want to make this real at all costs.

Soon we will have protests for robot rights

I can see that, if they display a reasonable level of faculty. I can see it frameworked like we do with animal rights. Sometimes like non-human rights. All the more reason to not even bother. I single focus human enemy is already tough to kill. Last thing we need is a datacenter suffering from rampancy hell-bent on water conservation to the extent of causing regional draughts 🤣😂

Can you hear this?
