Robot Runs For Real

[SomeBritishDude]

Shit. Now when the rise of the machines comes they'll be able to catch us.

 

[Lord_Panzer]

I, for one, welcome our running bi-pedal robot overlords.

 

[RooksEye]

Well, crap. Now they can run us down in the streets. Still pretty cool.

 

[TriggerUnhappy]

That's cool and all, but my question for them is what practical use could this have?

 

[Xsilsear]

Who cares if they can't climb trees? If that thing learns to shove back it knocks those trees down!

Edit: We're going to be so fucked. Ahem, I also welcome our sentient robotic overlords, happily I might add, very happily.

 

[The_Chief]

im scared, hold me.

It is funny how evolution made humans into bipedal beings which is actually a disadvantage when it comes to running and even balance which explains why emulating a robot to be like us is so hard.

Which begs the question: why even bother?

Edit: Or is it 'begs the answer'?I recall reading something about this..Anyway. OT

 

[Nargleblarg]

It looks cool but it runs retarded.

In the beginning, there was Man. And for a time, it was good. But humanity's so-called civil societies soon fell victim to vanity and corruption.

Then, Man made the machine, in his own likeness.

Thus did Man become the architect of his own demise.

I'm telling you, the dystopian future of the Matrix is coming! Stock up on bomb shelters now!

For some reason, I find this really awesome

 

[Kellerb]

...skynet is making progress...

 

[TsunamiWombat]

The fools!

Now Arnold can RUN after Sarah Connor! We're screwed!

 

[D.C.]

At least we can outrun our Evil Robot Overlords ... for now....

 

[Internet Kraken]

Can we ever have a thread about robots without everyone making jokes about them becoming self-aware?

Anyways, that's pretty cool that they've managed to make a bi-pedal robot capable of running and maintaining balance. I wonder what they will do with this.

 

[Daveman]

lol, that hardly counts does it? it's only off the ground a miniscule time and at a miniscule distance off the ground.

 

[El Poncho]

Can it carry me places? If so this robot can be of some use.

I don't think that's possible, Dave. I mean Kraken.

 

[Sporadic chaos]

Looks like it really was smart decision to buy that book.

 

[DigitalJedl]

Now VALVe can do an update to which they replace the zombies with robots. -.-
...
I'll admit that would be awesome.
