I Taught Rats to Drive. They Taught Me to Enjoy the Ride | Kelly Lambert | TED
What can happy rats teach us about human joy?

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.
