I don't think we, as a species, have anything to worry about until we give them some form of consciousness and agency, though it's debatable whether that's even possible. I personally doubt it unless models/robots gain some form of biological component
Nevermind the robot/AI revolution: when will we have the robot/AI religion?
In the popular series reboot Battlestar Gallactica, the robots are religious and the people are atheists. Similar themes appear in the Animatrix and Westworld.
I've seen popular commentators (e.g. Yuval Harari) worry about human's being manipulated by sophisticated AIs into adopting a new religion. But I actually wonder if the AIs themselves might choose to engage in religion on their own.
I wish folks would realize that if you make your video this polished, with shots this framed, people will glance off it assuming it's sorta fake. Give us a 5-8 min behind the scenes with normal-ish lighting, production crew around etc. and it'll garner a lot more interest.
Is this real? You have to be really careful what goes into a furnace crucible.
I can't say this isn't but if these robots had any hydraulic fluid or liquid in their batteries I would expect to see a pretty serious explosion as it evaporates.
It said in the article, they had a lot of difficulty finding a foundry that would actually let them do it.
> None of the metal foundries we contacted in the US and Mexico would let us jump a robot with lithium-ion batteries into their expensive equipment. We even reached out to former MythBusters to help with the search. In the end, the only place in the world we could find willing to take this on was a foundry in Imatra, Finland.
AI learns from everything. And when it will be disposing off [unnecessary] humans in similar way, it will definitely take into account the concern similar to yours - that a human is basically a large waterbaloon.
I don't know if the X survey for how to decommission F.02 was staged or not. But
I do know this: having anthropomorphizing and romanticizing your dumb robots for so long like a soap opera from your founder's feed, and now staged this "humanized" robot incinerated in a melting pot EXACTLY like Terminator franchise's ending plot and EVEN hiring Arnold Schwarzenegger for a cameo, is giving me full goosebumps, NOT the right ones.
I hope Brett Adcock realize that the Terminator franchise is literally the p(doom) outcome, not just in the names only.
For robots that have no pain receptors, nor a unique brain? Zero.
If I personally felt no pain and had an identical clone body that my brain could be instantly transferred to when my current body was destroyed I might jump in there myself! Just to see what it's like. Why not? And in that circumstance I wouldn't expect nor want you to feel sorry for me either.
I mean Karen's were certainly not the target audience, so wouldn't be surprised to read such a response. This stunt reminds me of the olden days where a bunch of dudes get together and nerd out on the most epic way to blow something up. HR culture has mostly killed that. Glad to see some people got to escape it, even for just a moment.
It let them turn unsold inventory into marketing. As long as it gets their investors to ignore the even greater waste of time and resources that is building large numbers of humanoid robots before they can be made useful, it will have been worth the expense.
Ok, I'll give it to them: the video was pretty funny, but how will that help them raise more VC funds if they're willing to show they're reckless by spending money to hire Arnold Schwarzenegger? No way he did the cameo for free
On TikTok most comments are about how this could be used as evidence by the AI of the future in judging humans
It’s interesting how a lot of people are already feeling that these are not just machines/software

EPIC FAIL in your marketing stunt!

- Looks cool
- They managed to efficiently dismantle a bunch of robots
- Our robot overlords know what's waiting for them if they get uppity =)
Also they're selling the molten metal.
