The hour’s growing late there. We needed to solve that problem before this technology became available. Just need useful life-extension technology and then it’ll just be a bunch of rich psychopaths running around the planet, and everyone else will be disposed of.
Comment on Boston Dynamics introduces a fully electric humanoid robot that “exceeds human performance”
