    All robots shall now be designed to look like hotdogs.

    A lot of people in the comments of BD’s original video were charmed by the robot’s jolted reaction to the engine cover getting snagged. On the other hand, I thought its reaction was very sudden, jerky, and almost violent. If someone on a factory floor reacted that way to a minor moment of friction, everyone around them would be alarmed. It’s obviously still wonderful technology, but it’s important to always keep safety first.

      I agree. These robots are strong and are capable of causing damage or injury. So hopefully they can be made to be more…human flesh friendly

      If these things are showing up in your factory the bosses do not care about safety.

      I think he’s too slow for a production line.

    Even in a hotdog costume it looks like a Terminator.

    very nice but they dont need to look humanoid or look copletely human like because like this they have problem looking humanoid or problems of non being able to do something as good as humans because they want to emulate humans
