Lemmings reading you right now:
Lol, not really. I'm rolling my eyes. It's just more doom and gloom reaction to a legitimately useful piece of technology, which could be just as much benefit to humanity as a detriment.
Plus the idea that the people who worked on this might have even been capable of working on something more "useful" to humanity is complete and utter moon shot speculation, along with the idea that this is mutually exclusive to research and development of "useful" things.
I'll reserve my cynicism for when these actually start trending towards replacing human workforce, like how LLMs are being misused. Most of Boston Dynamics's stuff doesn't have massive effects on the world, it's more specialized use cases.
It's gonna kill us
