Here’s a video showing this model of robot in action.

It will be interesting to see what capabilities these have, and how trainable they will be. They look like they can do simple warehouse work, but will they be much more capable than that?

I hope they cover the legs with something to prevent kids from pinching their fingers in that reverse knee joint area.

Uh oh! if your job is slowly taking a box from a shelf semi-successfully, you better watch out!

I work in an environment like that. The bar is very low, it wouldn’t take much to beat some humans at the job. Plus the robots can work 24/7 and don’t (yet) complain about stuff. No HR or OSHA needed either.

The growth of capabilities will likely be exponential. Small box today, larger box tomorrow, exterminating all human lifeforms by Thursday, relax on Friday as robot overlords have instituted a 4 day work week.
