@joshuatopolsky Caution is good, but we already have a piece of technology out there, the automobile, which kills 1000s of people every year. Humanoid robots haven't killed anyone as far as I'm aware.

Didn't even have to click the play button to know it was Boston Dynamics. Don't worry, I'm sure society is definitely ready for this wave of capitalism-fueled AI innovation about to be unleashed upon us all...

@joshuatopolsky I hope in your final gadget review you give the beta unit one star and it slows sales enough to save us until v2 comes around. 👎

@joshuatopolsky “We really do live in the future,” I say with reverent awe as ED-209 obliterates the meat sack designated ‘famousringo’ with its gyroscopically stabilized autocannons.

@joshuatopolsky Since it's being taught to move fast and break things, I think we should call it by it's correct name: Brobot.

@joshuatopolsky I do not like how gleeful it looks as it prances about, on its way to do murder.
