This article made me think.
"This time, we are the horses: the disruption of labor by humanoid robots". Many interesting take-aways whether you fully agree with their analysis or not.

Robots still can't outrun the fastest animals because millions of years of evolution + tissue and bone make for more agility, flexibility, etc. 🤯 Fascinating stuff https://www.sciencealert.com/theres-a-surprising-reason-why-robots-cant-outrun-the-fastest-animals

I look forward to the day when I am presented with an actual use case for humanoid beyond burning VC money.

Thread about how we had “3D printed” houses over a hundred years ago.

Unlike the ones today these actually existed and were very affordable (think $6,000 in today’s money for a complete 1-bedroom house).

Today’s tech industry is a bullshit layer cake.

Kill it! Kill it with fire BEFORE they make it move faster.

Boston Dynamics is not helping those of us with robot-phobia when they make videos like this.

Don't lay it out like a corpse and then animate it's clanky-ass so it can flagrantly violate all the rules of movement our human brains are comfortable with.

Another monstrosity; an offense to humanity.

Can we stop making robots look humanoid already? Make them look weird and machine-like; they’ll probably work better that way anyway. Making things that look humanoid yet violate the physical expectations applicable to humans is an insult to actual humans.

This is horrifying; an insult to humanity.

And besides, if you want to automate making burgers and fries, you would redesign the entire kitchen around a simpler system of automation, not create a gigantic ceiling-mounted robot arm that manipulates implements meant for human use.
