It is impressive to see the Boston Dynamics New Atals humanoid. It took them years of research and design to have this New Atlas 001 humanoid. we have to appreciate that. and to those who fear a dystopian future with humanoids in the workforce. Just adapt with time and reality or live in the past and become the past.

Philharmonic3,

I’m confused. Shouldn’t any robot exceed human performance? Even just in the ability to do repetitive tasks precisely without tiring. How is this news?

Pixlbabble,

Vaseline…Invest in Vaseline when the robot army comes. They can’t do shit with Vaseline on their camera lenses.

puppy,

Finally, a technology related post in the technology community.

Emmie,

Well my time to scheduled su1c1de just fast forwarded a little, or we can also get a gun and blast these things before it gets out of hand

CaptKoala,

I wish I didn’t feel somewhat similar, yet here I am…

Emmie,

I don’t think peaceful elderly life is in our future my friend

Ok OK, probably not those last two, but something more like this

dejected_warp_core,

Honestly, I get the distinct impression that everything in the hunting section at your local Walmart is going to be woefully ineffective. May I recommend a defensive position with difficult to traverse stairs?

Colour_me_triggered,

That robot looks like a wrong’un.

kromem,

I’m getting really tired of that metric.

Like, human performance has a very wide range and scope.

My car “exceeds human performance.”

My toaster exceeds human performance for making toast.

Michael Phelps exceeds the human performance of myself in a pool.

I exceed the human performance of any baby.

This just tells me that the robot is more able at something than the worst human at that thing.

CaptKoala,

I exceed the average human at idiocy.

RememberTheApollo_,

Exceeds the very limited parameter we used to define as “human performance.”

“Look, this robot’s arm can spin 360°! It exceeds human performance!”

Ok, can it get a glass out of the cabinet, put ice cubes in it, fill it with water and bring it to me?

archomrade,

I think you could have picked a more difficult metric, this is something i’m pretty sure the BD robots can actually do.

RememberTheApollo_, (edited )

In a random home, then. A human would know what a refrigerator is, where the ice is (dispenser or freezer), check cabinets for cups/glasses, and operate the sink. The BD bots would likely have to have everything pre-mapped, RFID’d and/or programmed.

darkpanda,

Who’s ready to fly on a zipline?

Mango,

No it doesn’t.

TwanHE,

Idk my limbs don’t rotate 360° degrees, At least not multiple times. Unless yours do he has us beat on something.

Mango,

That’s not exceeding human performance. That’s stepping around it.

bane_killgrind,

Well for a short time maybe

Mango,

Zero time.

dumbass,
@dumbass@leminal.space avatar

Maybe just a little bit?

Mango,

As a treat.

Chef_Boyardee,

I bet it has a stronger handshake.

9488fcea02a9,

Can it outrun a kenyan in a marathon?

Or the real question is if a battery can be made small enough to fit in a human sizef robot that can keep it running over 42km

dependencyinjection,

It says exceed human performance, not exceed the peak humans in a given discipline.

Could Kiptum, race an F1 car as fast as Lewis Hamilton?

Could Lionel Messi play basketball like peak Kobe?

Sure the headline is hyperbole, but I don’t think we still should compare things like this.

bestagon,

Hyperbole is an understatement, the headline is obviously just trying to generate clicks. Idk how else we should quantify “human performance” though. Should we compare it’s strength to a sedentary office worker instead? I think the marathon comparison is actually very generous because I doubt this thing can even replicate a reasonable facsimile of a soccer performance.

@deczzz@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Indeed. And lots of normal human beings are able to run marathon. Pretty easy if you set your mind to.

linearchaos,
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

I mean, give it a dirt bike mode. Plenty of e-bikes out there can go over 42 km. Nothing says it has to do it like a human to exceed human capability.

@Ultragigagigantic@lemmy.world avatar

Can it out mine John Henry?

PsychedSy,

I use drill motors for a fucking reason. Without AGI it’s a fancy NC machine.

spez_,

I hope it can operate guns and sprint

deaf_fish,

Oh you know that’s where the engineering effort is going

hperrin,

And it’s not just a person in a body suit.

anlumo,

Well, the “robot” you’re referring to couldn’t exceed human performance by definition.

linearchaos,
@linearchaos@lemmy.world avatar

After watching the creepy as fuck way it got up off the floor I think it’s safe to say there’s not a human in it.

hperrin,

I’m honestly not sure which one is more creepy.

mindbleach,
