Re: Almost Amazing Robot
I find it hard to wrap my mind around the concept of a machine being able to do back flips.

and walk around on such terrain without toppling over. because of the snow, it didn't know what it was stepping into/onto...
Re: Almost Amazing Robot
I dunno ... that bot is way too agile for a machine. I hear the military is interested in such things. It's kind of scary.
Re: Almost Amazing Robot
it's sci-fi marching right up to our door...
Re: Almost Amazing Robot
The technology has been around a while, but there is some concern about advancing it. People are not sure they can give killer robots a moral sense. And, if they have artificial intelligence, us humans may turn out to be disposable to them.
Re: Almost Amazing Robot
yes, how do you teach prime directive anyway? 
Re: Almost Amazing Robot
In about ten years, not more than fifteen, they say artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence. At that point we could appear inferior to that which we created. I'm guessing that self-preservation would become the dominant goal of any self-aware being, which means that the bots may merely tolerate us as we do flies or mosquitoes in summer. They are working on teaching bots how to be sentient, and even loving. The porn industry is driving that research, believe it or not. However, nobody knows where that will lead in a super intelligent robot.
