    I forget about these things all the time.
    I see a video and think wow, that's crazy...until months go by and a see another.

    They sure have come a long way from this...

    These things are scary...I just hope they won't be able to "evolve" on their own! That being said...the development is quite extraordinary!

    I feel bad for that guy with the hockey stick—robots remember everything.

    Time to sell the watch collection, use the cash to buy fine wine and rare old single malts, and wait for the robogeddon...

    If the moonwatch were to be worn by this robot, will the watch be able to tolerate all the shock ? ,

    Yeah, yeah, impressive, but can it do this?

    I didn’t think so …

    Each new creation they unveil seems to bring something fresh and innovative to the table. And you know what else caught my attention recently? Telepresence robots. These things are like a glimpse into the future! Imagine being able to be present in one location while physically being somewhere else through a robot. It's like real-life teleportation, and I'm genuinely fascinated by how this technology is evolving. So yeah, between the Boston Dynamics robots and telepresence innovations, it's an exciting time to be a tech enthusiast!
