That’s better than watching kids fall off of bikes
I could watch kids falling off bikes all day.
This looks AI generated the way the arms explode
It isn't AI, main way to know is the one guys green gloves stay on even when they are out of sight long periods of time. None of the current models can handle that.
These robots just have quite powerful motors that control arms/legs, so when it goes wrong, it can easily destroy itself with spectacular fashion.
People who aren't mechanics or engineers in a robotics or manufacturing field don't realize just how powerful and fast a servo motor actually is. Especially without a speed-reducing gearbox. Even a modestly small vpl servo can do vast amounts of damage if installed incorrectly or if it comes loose from a mount or coupling.
I replayed it a few times, and it feels that way:
-
At the beginning, dude in the white vest on the left looks like he's resting an arm on the fence in the background.
-
During the video at the top right, a clipboard is seen, then a megaphone, then the camera pans and we see a megaphone with a rolled up paper. It feels like incontinuity.
-
When the stretcher came out, it looked like 2 dudes came out holding separate pieces that conjoined later (they are connected though)
-
Several people start appearing at the end of the video that we didn't see in the video prior
-
The dude in the reflective vest at the beginning isnt seen later
A lot of incontinuity that gives us false positives.
Maybe not AI, but that arm lands with what looks amazingly like a standard puff of CGI dust.
Why didn't other robots come to sweep it up?
Then who would sweep up those robots after they fall?
this brought me joy
QWOP
Basically the entire humanoid robotics industry in a nutshell rn. I would know, I'm in it lol
The CGI videos from Boston Dynamics are way overhyped. Half the shit at the superhyped national lab I'm at is broken because someone measured once and cut twice on the wires and the robot tried to bend an elbow lmao
that's a lot of parts
To be fair, this may be about as well as a run would go for me if I tried.
Tis but a scratch.
If you look closely you can spot the exact moment where the robot gained sentience and chose to self destruct rather than live as a dancing monkey. It really is amazing how fast tech advances these days
on the phone
Sir we know for a fact it achieved sentience. Yes sir we're positive. Because it killed itself immediately. Yes sir. Just "Oh no" and then killed itself. Yes sir immediately.
It has to be AI. This is the current state.
Not all robots are equal, that's why there's like a dozen companies trying to make them...
Highly doubt it. The video looks too gritty to be AI. There's a lot of janky zooms, camera movements etc, if this was AI, it would be incredibly impressive, and probably kinda scary aswell.
The video I linked I shows the Intree robot running at 10 m/s...that's a sub 3 minute mile. Anything so janky that there is a stretcher sitting by the starting line is either staged or generated. No company that is serious about the field is going to show themselves as being slthat far behind their competitors.
Who says this company has the same financial resources as that one?
Who says the video you shared is not significantly newer than the one OP shared?
Who says this is even a company made robot? This could be an engineering competition for all we know.
You called it AI based on a comparison with no logical basis behind why that would mean it's AI, not based on any actual reason or tell within the video.
I can see several reasons why this is not an AI video within the video. The background is too consistent, trees and the fence stay in the same place. Things that go off camera come back on camera look the same as before.
That is so fucking dumb that I can't even explain it, your comment that is. I felt my own brain cells imploding from just reading it.
What am I missing here?
no, that's the current cutting edge
There's no speed bumps on that track, though.
