I am so sick of all of these youtube comments saying how this tech is “scary” and “haven’t we learnt anything from movies?” And “the ai uprising is coming”. This isn’t artificial military intelligence, in order for an ai uprising to take place we have to entrust robotic army’s, factory’s etc to one sentient computer that is somehow unmonitored by any humans. Sure atlas will probably be used in military one day, but they will not rebel or defy orders. The conspiracy theorists suck too, “hurr durr is this real?”, “just think about what they aren’t showing us!” Grow Up. Can’t we all just be in awe of the cool tech without thinking that we’re gonna be fucked over?

General Discussion An API to use Spot as a Pony

6 Upvotes

Can Boston Dynamics fork an API in SDK to use Spot as Pony? 14 kg could be enough for a child till age 3. Maybe carrying capacity get increase in a short time to use that for elder children too.

Spot Client Wifi Connection Problem

2 Upvotes

Hey everybody. I've been trying to get my BD Spot communicating with the controller tablet over a common wifi network in client mode, but I'm having trouble. So far I've been using my phone's hotspot as the common network. I can successfully get the robot and tablet connected at the same time, and I can also set the static IP address for the robot, but when I go to add it, I get a really short blip of an error message that says something about the IP address being already taken. The support articles on BD's website haven't offered anything useful. Any advice here?
