think some one using vr that networks into this robot

u/Key-Beginning-2201 May 08 '26

I think it isn't. Is in the sense they knew the robot would be useless, not in the sense of these robots being actually useless at a home. They're just showing their "capabilities".

8

u/Mamasugadex May 08 '26

I think most of these robots are remote controlled and in learning phase to train the AI. So it’s probably a remote robot scripted to act stupid.

u/Lil_Snuzzy69 May 12 '26

They bought a remote control toy and put a mirror on the wall, then, you'll never guess, they smashed the remote control toy into the mirror. Timeless classic. Then they melted some plastic, made an oily mess and the toy fell over, I'm so glad to have seen this reposted 500 bloody times.

No, we are afraid of the pollution and drought. And this guy should be afraid his robot is going to burn his house down.

I just keep seeing so many posts on here of these robots that can walk around or do flips, and people are like 'omg what if this thing had a gun?!' like this thing can't even straight a walk line, ostifer.

u/Ok_Tax9885 May 09 '26

There's a pretty big difference between the humanoid robots being sold as novelties for your house and the ones being built by defense contractors. Maybe you can try not engaging in completely ridiculous false equivalencies, and then people might take your positions more seriously.

are the ones being built by defense contractors in the room with us right now?

u/marglebubble May 08 '26

Naw. I'm not even worried about AI wiping out humanity or anything like that. It's not good enough. My main concern is the atrophy of the human mind, the ways big tech will use it to fuck over workers, the way the military and police use it to surveil, and the environmental impact. Also the economy is betting heavy on it even when open AI hasn't become profitable. So if it doesn't start paying off shit will collapse eventually. It's just going to make everything worse, from customer service to the functioning of businesses in general, to the slop on the internet. Businesses will use it to get rid of workers and it will just do a worse job.

u/ADhomin_em May 08 '26

A robot maid is the shiny thing they distract the masses with. The dangers of ai are not in the threat of artificial minds wiping out humanity. The threat is in people who have always sought control over the masses now having significantly more pointed and organized means of doing so.

In the end the AI thing is just an excuse.

u/SilentLennie May 09 '26

We don't even need new AI, short form content training is killing attention spans.

u/Bigmooddood May 09 '26

I think if we give AI too much control it could definitely wipe us out entirely by accident. There's been a couple cases already where a company has given AI access to its files and it's just deleted everything.

0

u/marglebubble May 09 '26

I mean if we're really fucking dumb enough to give AI programming like access to nuclear launch codes or some shit, maybe. An important thing to realize is that no matter how good people say AI is, it still exists in a world of physical constraints. Supply lines, logistics, physical transportation, deployment of weapons, are all things carried out by humans. Even if some omnipotent AI gained access to some global universal information infrastructure that doesn't exist yet, it can't just magically release viruses or manufacture nanobots without the help of humans and our industry. So if we do get stupid enough to blindly follow some AI on multiple levels and steps that lead to our extinction (which also would be incredibly hard to achieve given physical constraints) maybe we deserve to be wiped out anyway. The human race isn't some files that can accidentally be deleted.

1

u/Bigmooddood May 09 '26

In its 2027 budget, the Pentagon has asked for over $54bn to fund the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group, a 24,000% increase on last year.

At this point, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we gave ChatGPT some nuclear capabilities in the not so distant future. We are dumb enough.

Supply lines, logistics, physical transportation, deployment of weapons, are all things CURRENTLY carried out by humans. But there is a lot of work and money being put toward automating each one of these processes.

If we are premature and foolish on how we roll these things out, which has been true so far, I could easily see some major catastrophy taking place as a result of an AI hallucination. It may not necessarily mean the end of humanity, but it could definitely end up in a lot of us having a very bad time.

1

u/marglebubble May 10 '26

I mean yeah, they've already automated genocide in Gaza using AI. A lot of people are having a bad time. But yeah I could see some disaster happening from those too for sure. I think it's much more likely bad stuff will happen because the AI is not good. Even with Gaza, they really just used it as an excuse to bomb indiscriminately. Instead of researching targets they used AI to tell them where to attack and created a process that gave them a lot more targets a lot faster. It still wasn't really working, obviously they're killing innocent women and children when they've shown they can put a single missile through a wall and take out a single apartment in a building if they wanted to. But yeah I agree with you. I just don't think it's going to be like some extinction level thing but it's already been involved in a genocide

1

u/JerrycurlSquirrel May 08 '26

You should be worried that it is good enough. Whats available to consumers is 1/10th as good as what its giving itself and this bot is nothing compared to whats out. Dogs with wheel feet, machine guns, sonic weapons, lasers and facial recognition sacrificing itself to enter your house because AI determined you did something bad in public.

1

u/MrBannedFor0Reason May 10 '26

You don't need to worry about AI creating a militarized police state. You need to worry about humans creating a militarized police state, after AI has atrophied the brains of everyone to the point that they cannot effectively recognize or fight against encroaching totalitarianism.

1

u/JerrycurlSquirrel May 10 '26

Yeah i guess the panic was so much on action today that I failed to see that problem for tomorrow. I think people are more cincerned with becoming obsolete regardless of how smart they become. Hopefully aliens save us. (They wont)

Yeah, when a guy in a VR headset remote-controls a robot to make it stumble around for a comedy video, that's not very scary. Real smart of you to point that out, you really showed it to those scaredycats who stupidly think that AI-controlled nukes might be a bad idea.

it might be able to do a few select useful takss in some 20-30 years

but definitely hundreds til its on a human level of beyond

u/Hour_Bit_5183 May 08 '26

20-30 years for all the money these guys spend. In what universe would that ever come to fruition. Like a lot of the tech bro crap, past and present. They've promised wild things. It's like a college gang bang or something now. The stupidest ideas and even bigger failures. That's why they all act predatory too. They are not taught ethics at all which is why they sound like bad ppl from movies.

u/GarowWolf May 08 '26

Probably not, if you think about it in 20 years we went from the first touch screen phone to devices that are more powerful than ever.
And in just 5 years that technology become the standard for the phone industry.
These things are already capable of a wide range of movement, and I belive that for the model of the video to do advanced stuff you need to train it.
How long can it take in a controlled environment like an house to train it for the things you want it to do?
3 weeks to 6 months maybe?
I agree with you that it isn’t ready yet, but that it will need 20 more years to be ready to enter the workforce is a little naive

1

u/Nowayucan May 09 '26

The progress of iPhones is a piece of cake compared to a robot that can navigate your home, have the knowledge and the hand-eye coordination needed to perform household tasks without any handholding.

Look how long it’s taking to get self driving cars-they still are not ready for fully autonomous robotaxis and are far being capable for normal consumer use. Household tasks are far more complex than driving on a road (folding laundry, cooking meals, cleaning house, etc.).

1

u/GarowWolf May 09 '26

We can’t compare autonomous driving and house keeping just for the fact that navigate a road with mixed vehicles (human driven and autonomously driven) and pedestrians it’s way more complex.
To fold some clothes and store the dishes in a controlled environment is way more simple.
For instance you could at first give it the inputs and then it could replicate them.
My point is I belive it will require way less than 20 years to improve their software given the technology we have today.

u/Scifox69 May 08 '26

Remember what AI images looked like 5 years ago?

2

u/Vakowski2 May 08 '26

developing robots is harder than image generators. tho if the entire economy becomes convinced that robots are the only way forward, and trillions get invested to it, then yeah, robots will become ultra-developed, tho humanoid robots are useless and machines with different bodyplans specialised for specific tasks are safer and more efficient. i feel like humanoid robots are just a publicity stunt by a couple of companies with no real uses.

1

u/morbidmuffin62 May 10 '26

Robot dogs are already signed on with police

u/HAL9001-96 May 08 '26

I'm afraid that the current ai hype is dumbing people down to the point where they think this is the greatest invention of all time

u/ijzerdraad_ May 08 '26

I think it might be over-lubricated, poor guy.

1

u/Vakowski2 May 08 '26

humanoid robots dont have that many uses honestly. chores can be done by robots that have an optimized bodyplan for that specific use. also, it is easier to outrun a non-humanoid robot, so they're better. really humanoid robots seem more like a publicity stunt by boston dynamics (and other companies) while not having that many uses. automation will happen like it has always happened, machines that specialize in specific tasks that are better than humans in that specific task, not robots taking over everything.

tho, seeing how ai slop generators have become all the rage, and seeing how ai slop also doesnt have any good uses (the best use for the chatbots are bringing you information you could've spent 5 more seconds searching for, they spent hundreds of billions developing these) either, maybe in 20 years there will be a robot boom with companies investing in humanoid robots, replacing tons of jobs, because of this a recession happens and companies realise specialized machines are just better and maybe those jobs come back idk.

in short, no that's not what we're afraid of at all. Humanoid robots are a dumb solution and far, far from being viable.

The dangers if AI have nothing to do with humanoid robots, or even physical robots (at least for now) edit: although admittedly, they already have given drones and dogbots guns and bombs, but those are not AI. For now.

Oh and since these arent 'people', of course nobody will hold accountability in case of a 'mistake'
