@BostonDynamics 's newest robot just dropped--and it's stronger (and way more flexible) than even elite human athletes. spectrum.ieee.org/atlas-huma… #robot #robots #robotics #bostondynamics #atlas

It's a deal. August 19, 2031. My prediction is that this project will not register at all in any history of the previous ten years. So we'll understand that it was a totally insignificant announcement.
August 19, 2021. This day goes down in history as when @elonmusk announced Tesla Bot at Tesla AI Day. We'll look back in 10 years and understand how significant today really was.

Hot take: Elon Musk has no idea what getting humanoid robots to do useful stuff actually involves

It's been a big 24 hours of news for humanoid robots between Boston Dynamics, Disney, and the "Tesla Bot." Curious what non-roboticists think about it, but I for one like seeing more ideas being explored.

"Diversity in academia is critical, and the necessary changes will only happen with sustained work on the part of all academics." @DrCABerry @hadmoni @BlackInRobotics spectrum.ieee.org/automaton/…
For @iRobot CEO @colinangle, working towards more intelligent human-robot collaboration is "the brave new frontier of AI." buff.ly/2QoNOcJ
