Drop your weapon. You have twenty seconds to comply.
Oh ED209, you scamp. I already dropped the weapon.
If I was promised at least one “burst into flames” every so often, I might consider watching these.
This is NOT a robot its an RC biped
But Patel observed that many of the robotic competitors were still being teleoperated by human operators who directly controlled the robots’ actions. The World Humanoid Robot Games allowed for human teleoperation of robots in certain events, but penalized the final score if robots were being remotely controlled rather than performing autonomously.
In other words, they know. The games preferentially favor fully automated bots. But that’s a really high bar, so they also don’t make you go home if your team can’t achieve that in every event.
If RC is good enough for robot wars it’s good enough for this!
But Robot Wars was up front about this use of remote control. The ccp hides it and miss labels them as “robots” which implies self controlling.
Also robot wars was a tv show, this article is pure propaganda lies to make it seem china came up w/ something new that the US and Europe had down 15 years ago or more.
It’s not hiding it… It’s in the rules.
You’re acting like this is one monolithic ccp program, but there are engineering teams from many universities and companies competing here. This is in fact a lot like Robot Wars, it’s just a flashy robotics competition, there are a lot of these.
The Chinese government didn’t build any of these robots, none of them. They don’t have any claim to have invented something new, because they didn’t invent anything. What I’m saying is, your complaints don’t make any sense.
Don’t bash the article before you read it.
Glazing the ccp as these are NOT ROBOTS, they are glorified toys that the rest of the world developed 15 years ago and the ccp thinks they are innovators on stolen tech.
All companies and universities fall under the ccp control, aka the chinese government. So yes they built them. How out of touch are you or are you a shill?
You really want to give the ccp all the credit? Weird. Are you a ccp shill?
So that show we mentioned, robot wars, are those robots? I mean it’s right there in the name, but is that just propaganda? These are all manually controlled.
What about that Boston dynamics dog, spot? Is that a robot? Because those can be controlled manually too.
I think you need to adjust your definition of “robot”, because you seem to have it wrong.
Reading isn’t your strong suit, thats ok considering how education is going these days.
Robot Wars is tv, aka not a government run propaganda campaign.
Boston Dynamics and I quote you
“What about that Boston dynamics dog, spot? Is that a robot? Because those can be controlled manually too”
Keyword “CAN” be controlled manually. But still can act on its own as a robot/autonomous.
I think you need to adjust your definition of “robot”, because you seem to have it wrong.
No I use the definition of robot in spirit of Isaac Asimov.
And the ccp glazer/shill tries to call the person out shitting all over the ccp as a ccp shill. very interesting.
You have the lack of understanding of what a robot is, not me there pal.

Show me on the doll where China touched you.
China, no. ccp yes, they are evil. Tell me about Tienanmen Square in 1986? The lies on how Hong Kong was supposed to be hands off for 50 years and the no honor ccp reneged. Tell me about the “Belt and Road” initiative to enslave poor countries. Then that same project are “tofu dreg” and kill locals?
Zambia and the ccp killing a entire river because safety is not a concern.
Biggest vocation is food delivery in mainland as the economy is in free fall. Factories are burning because they haven’t paid employee’s in 6+ months and there is no recourse as the ccp cuddles up to the factory “owners” so the workers torch them.
So shill would you like me to go on? I can do this for days. Lets talk about the bridge collapses and that dam that failed in Guangxi? 3 Gourges is going to pop soon and thats going to be a Biblical event… Oh and the flooding as there are fake drainage as the land of short cuts and facades has to deliver.
Do you watch the China show with serpentza?
That’s gonna be the thing that murders you. Wooo it runs fast!
Oh thank God. I was worried it was going to be one of those little lunch delivery bots and that it was going to take hours for it to get around to eliminating this meat bag.
What if it’s just a flying drone, but all it does is shoot you with a never ending supply of spit balls? Just all day, every day, bullied by a drone.
That means it has a moist mouth.
This upsets me.
I enjoy asking my wife if she has thought about how wet her bones are today.
The food bot just needs to bring you lettuce and jalapenos.
And this is why they’ll want to murder us.
The future is terrifying. How many years before ice has those things chasing people down in the streets?
They’re already using AI drones in Ukraine.
As in, Russia is using them against Ukrainians

The Ukrainian army is using them as well.
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/31/magazine/ukraine-ai-drones-war-russia.html
ICE already has monsters chasing people down in the streets. Does it matter whether those monsters are carbon-based or silicon-based?
The carbon based ones feel pain
I refuse to belive that
Never. There’s absolutely no need to use humanoid robots for that, other form factors would be much more efficient.
I wanna say it was a dynamics robot that was awkwardly jogging because of an unbalanced load. Stopped. Got on all 4 and ran off WAY faster (50-60kph) up a rocky hill.they basically said going bipedal was really just to comfort the people around it.
Next step is centaurs, four legs AND hands free to choke people.
Why stop there? Let’s give it some tentacles!
I mean, bullets are quite quick aren’t they?
Those are kind of terrifying.
Watched a clip yesterday and learned that compared to just last year, there were four times as many contestants and they managed to complete the race in less than half the time.
But the really fascinating things were mundane tasks like chopping vegetables.
Comparing that to what Europe has got to offer is what scares me.
You mean f-ing AWESOME
Watch “Chappie”
“Don’t do crimes!”
I for one welcome our new robot overlords.
