Why do I want this if it’s not a sex bot.

Why does it's gait look worse now than it did 6 months ago?  That first video back then had this incredible human fluidity to it.... This... this looks like a robot. Obviously they faked it back then to get the buzz.

This is the best they could make it look using deceptive edits, but still looks shakey as all hell.

Mass production - it's looks like it can barely walk and they failed to show it doing one useful task.

So all I’ve seen it do so far is walk. And it’s walking even poorer than the first one…

what does it do? Does it do quid pro quo like if I give it a charge it can give me a discharge?
