Yes, Atlas is extremely impressive. There's a huge difference between choreographed ("do a backflip off the crate onto the floor") and being "preprogrammed" to do everything - it's obviously extremely adaptive or it would not be able to do these dynamic moves in real world conditions, or handle being kicked/shoved around in the way Boston Dynamics like to abuse their robots! I'm not sure of the utility of Atlas as a form factor though. It's too mechanically complex to ever be cheap or expendable. The humanoid form factor also gives expectations that it should be intelligent, but even when we do eventually figure AGI out, it'll probably be decades later (if ever!) that we get the power requirements down to the point it could be deployed in a battery powered device. |
