To be fair Cleo, when you pushed the robot it was not expecting it. You were expecting to be pushed so we can see you tense in the video ready for the push. In that sense you had a big advantage over Atlas. I wonder how you would have performed if you had been blindfolded, and not known when the push was coming? So, Atlas's response was even better than you originally thought.

06:49 Never mind Moravec's Paradox, Atlas' legs are shorter and less flexible. Improve flexibility, limb length and balance becomes more difficult (especially for things like backflips) because centre of gravity is higher and with a higher centre of gravity comes higher angular momentum, slower rotary response and higher angular commitment; pretty much all the things which force taller people to go about balance-dependent actions more slowly, on average.

Be honest, wouldn't you freak out if Atlas picked up the pole and shoved back?...

Human body is insanely complex. Remember that we do not have actuators that can push, only pull. When you stand still, your muscles are working hard because your bones would twist all over the place and you would collapse if muscles do not keep you balanced at all times. This has some side-effects, too. Your neck can get sore if the muscles in your calves are too tight because all the muscles from your calves to your neck work non-optimally and your back will twist incorrectly as a result.

There is this movie in my country. Its called Robot (that's the translation) and its my favorite movie ever. In it the scientist creates an andro-humanoid robot, so basically it exactly looks like a man but it can do what what humans can't like walk into a burning building and all that stuff. The thing is it learns human commands as it spends more time with us. Like it gets a command "go put the TV" (translated into english it sounds weird but thats exactly what we say) and people know that means "Turn the TV on" but the robot just takes the TV off the wall and puts it on the ground, well, he drops it. But it learns. And later in the movie it is asked to save people in burning building. The problem is it saves a girl who is completely naked cause she was in the shower when the fire started and brings her to the public where there are TV reporters and many people. It doesn't understand what the problem is. And the scientist realizes humans can't keep telling it everything right and wrong. To combat this, the scientist gives the robot feelings and (somehow) programs it to feel emotions. It seems like it doesn't work tho and the scientist gets mad at the robot, but surprisingly the robot gets mad at the scientist too. Eventually this feelings thing gets out of control and stuff happens. Its a dope movie and seeing atlas and these almost human like robots reminded me of this movie.

Getting a robot to do basic things like putting away groceries reminds me of an anecdote I heard once about how chimps are smart in a stupid way. I don't know if the story is really true or not, but it goes like this: One of primatologist Jane Goodall's chimps kept coming into her house and pooping on the floor. Each time she caught him doing it, she would confront him with his mess, spank him and put him out of the window. Later, she watched to see what the chimp did, and he came into the house, pooped on the floor, spanked himself and jumped out of the window.

after seeing the "push" autocorrection: *think about this.* A) Atlas is very good at calculating balance correction. If you push it, it will autocorrect. B) Now say you fall into atlas accidentally because YOU tripped. Atlas now autocorrects its balance and crushes your limb in the process because it valued its balance over a much MUCH harder calculation including your choice of balancing and autocorrection in real time. C) everything in (b) gets multiplied even further into complexity as people have entirely different levels of coordination, or accident experience. D) it chooses a neutral option, of collapse, and now a dangerous heavy piece of machinery with limbs is falling with/on you. The amount of corrections and processing power to function safely around humans is off the charts.

An interesting side topic to this video is the idea of the uncanny valley, essentially when artificially made human faces (digital or in real life) creep us out because we can tell they don't look or move correctly. Curious how the development of humanoid robots in the future will incorporate that idea, and whether we will move more toward robots with intentionally non-human facial features, or if we will see more trying to perfect the the human face and its emotions. Would love to see a video or short from you on this topic! Thanks for making such great content!

I could still go to work and know that my mother is being served a meal, she's safely getting a shower (with the embarrassment of her son seeing her naked). Those are powerful uses and I can just focus on getting to her place to just chat. Space travel is coming closer and closer.

There are indeed thousands or millions of lines of code. But it's also important to note that while a line-following car is generally algorithmic, a lot of these robotic systems are machine learning based, which is quite different. It would take a ton more code to control the robot this complexly than it does to let to the robot learn how to control itself.

An interesting thought experiment too is considering Murphy's law, is it inevitable that the robots go wrong, or just inevitable that someone (i.e. the military/police) will re-appropriate this technology, and that first in order for that to happen according to Murphy's law someone inevitably will have to build the first safe models (i.e. Boston Dynamics/Tesla/Honda/Amazon)? I don't know the answer, and the ethics get really tricky with this one, which is why there's not been a conclusive answer that has been delivered to policy makers, whom, in turn, could be cynically argued to have ulterior motives for so called 'national defence' and controlling citizens underlying in their power-hungry minds anyway🥲@@brucemacmillan9581

Omg You actually showed the visualization display of its SLAM system More of that please

8:44 was just gold!!! Your videos are amazing and highly educational and humorous at the same time. Please never stop this!!!

I dont know why but this episode felt like claire dynphy's character from modern family learning about robots. Great work btw.

Now imagine military robots that move so fast, you need a strobe light to see them. Scary stuff.

Would have been interesting to see how much pressure it can give back on something not alive, ramming a door open ,etc.. I laughed at throwing groceries out the window, lol!

Now imagine: the expressions from sofia, the mobility from the boston dynamics robot, and the intelligence from the figure 01 fron openAI in one unique robot

I like how they put in that CG mocapped corridor digital robot xD I really loved the video and I had some of the same questions - now answered :) Thanks

The robot fear is strong with this one

I like how he goes with the flow.

It's astonishing, exciting and terrifying at the same time how far we have come in the past 4 years

The multi-joint articulation is super impressive, particularly when getting shoved around.

That last part about military robots, it seems almost inevitable that this will happen. How is a tank with a targeting computer any different than a robot? How much computer assistance does it take until something is considered "AI"? This will almost certainly happen without people even realizing it like a frog in hot water.

Yeah, just think about all the drones and missiles that are unmanned and somewhat automated and go around blowing people up. They are basically non-humanoid robots used for killing people already.

Thank you for getting in there and opening our eyes or minds to the future of this. When we see the dancing and throwing the toolbag. We tend to think they are functioning by themselves and have access to all the internet knowledge available. I, being 70 now, may not see the final products of self sufficient robots. But, I've seen many changes in human living from the 1950s, which I miss, to 2023 so far. The old movies and TV shows, especially Arnold's movies, have shown us what has been secretly worked on for the future. They have been giving us little glimpses along the way and many just thought it was imaginary entertainment. Surprise! Can't say we weren't warned.

Hi @CleoAbram :D, I've been loving your content lately, and I have a suggestion for a video idea. Can you make a video about Naos Fussball? I think your unique perspective and style would add a fresh take to this topic. I'm really looking forward to seeing your thoughts and insights on it! Keep up the fantastic work!

I suppose the only weakness robots have is in the joints which have to put up with very high torques, I remember this robotic spider a few years ago, and the guy said if you accidentaly move it the gears will strip.

Robots biggest weakness is it's power source. They didn't show how they have to be charged up all the time.

Most excellent presentation. It is interesting that although Atlas does not learn from watching people, you were able to instantly learn to duplicate its dance moves, just from watching. It will be interesting, to say the least, to watch the truly evolutionary processes that are about to explode on us.

I would have ended the video with the statement: "The future for robots is not coming... it's already here" but loved this video so far, great to see the advancements with all these technologies coming all together for the greater good! ✨

Yeah the robot shoving, thank you for apologizing... WIth every push, I was worried it was going to come back at you ta boot, so... so glad it ended when it did. Also, and can't stress this enough, thank you for taking the pushes yourself in front of atlas.. if there is a digital reckoning and all, at least you can say, I was willing , and I did, take the same pushes... Wasn't just picking on atlas. Great video! Loved seeing inside Boston Dynamics ;)

Imma need you to personally send me a 10 hr long clip of you and atlas dancing with banger music edit. 6:35

Putting Tesla in the same conversation with Boston Dynamics is pretty funny. Tesla is playing with crayons while Boston Dynamics is making masterpieces.

Tesla is probably also faking their Optimus product presentations the same way they have faked all their early FSD presentation videos, so it is hard to believe what they are showing even though it is nothing special

Teslas AI is already learning just by watching humans do something and BD has to code it by hand, so i think it might be other way around for people that have studied this stuff a bit. Seeing the rapid advancements from optimus and the goal to mass produce it cheaply gives the other a run for their money sooner than later.

Great video Cleo! Fantastic to see how humanoid robots are developing. Can't wait for your video with Spot!

On weaponization of robots, it's already happened like +10 years ago with static turret weapons (example: SGR-A1). Though I wouldn't worry as much about AI or robotic weapons as I would nuclear weapons or just people with any weapons. Every year humanity survives is a bittersweet blessing and every year civilization survives is a great blessing.

9:03 - I think the biggest difference there is that Atlas is purely reactive while you are very clearly bracing for what you know is coming, the second you perceive that its about to come you start tilting forward to compensate. The real experience here would probably be to do this blindfolded

Good stuff! Great take on it. Always love your videos and the perspective you share.

great video. Good, relatable line of questions which I think will appeal to a lot of people

09:06 - Also look at how you lean into the push atlas coundnt do that since he did not predict it. - AMAZING video btw! Was playing Helldivers 2 on the other screen... Yeah my friends are gonna have to 3man this one.

Funny enough Boston dynamics dogs is one of the first smart robot publicly sold and it is built in a way to add accessories which can be weaponised

Atlas is a crazy cool bot. The day we see those replace people in search and rescue it’ll blow my Mind

This show is way better than what CBS did on their coverage on Atlas. Kudos!

One of the best short video documentaries on humanoid robots that I have seen. Boston Dynamics should consider using this for their Public Relations (PR) endeavors, and/or other activities.

What do you think this was?

Hey Cleo, great video as always. I just one suggestion - would it possible for you to create a 'More' Cleo Abram channel where you can post a long form version video of the main channel video. This is in no way to belittle the amount of effort you put into the videos you put on here ( it's truly incredible and evident ). However, I did feel like you had to condense down a huge topic to fit the time frame. Personally, I love long form videos and I think if you could post a longer version, that would allow for much more breathing room for such a vast topic. Keep em coming
