"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Sadly not. In this fight the T800 was drived by an human with VR because security, but in fights with other bots it use the own AI. The T800 is also used by the Chinese Police among with another one with the form of a ball.

Chinese bot industry is really scary

110% false. I would list all of the reasons why I know this but since I'm on mobile and I don't want to type that many paragraphs, and because you're probably the only person who will read this and you'll probably refuse to admit that you're wrong, I'll only list a couple.

  • Regardless of how a human would be controlling the robot, the human would have no way of getting feedback of how the robot is balancing. That ridiculous kick that pushes the dude into the wall (humanoid robots can't kick that hard yet) would absolutely cause the robot to lose it's balance and fall over.
  • Have you seen the Unitree humanoid robots? They look like toys compared to this. They weigh 77 lbs, they fall over all the time, their walking is clunky. Not saying it's a bad robot, it is impressive in it's own way, especially for the price. If this T800 robot was real we would be seeing them all over YouTube, China would be shoving them in everyone's face.
  • That little hop/stretch the robot does just before the fight starts is very obviously fake. Look at it again.
