F.E.D.O.R. - machines rise in Russia

[Boris]

I got to say this is 1000x times cooler than Boston dynamics ghey robot goat. Originally this robot was made as a sex assistant to astronauts, but then Russians said, screw it, robots need guns. SKYNET connection is not yet enabled. Lol @ testing with Glocks, I hope that robot is explosion proof.

Here is Russian version of TSA robot learning how to cup your testies

Mr. Trump, I challenge you to make American robots great again!

Funny to see a robot driving a car versus a self driving car.

Won't be long now.

I might be in the minority, but I don't find that "sex assistant" very arousing.

You're seeing it without the wig...

I assume this thing is moisture resistant.

Is that a bimba air cylinder, or are you just happy to see me?

vodka and a paperbag?

I bet that robot can love you looong time ... sucky sucky to 20 inches of mercury

Bad trigger discipline

computers don't make mistakes only their programmers do

I thought you meant Fedor "the last emperor" Emelianenko

 

[Neverknowsbest]

First they train seals to carry and shoot guns.... Now robots?! They must be running low on conscripts!

Guys, it's a dude. Check out the Adam's apple.

What could POSSIBLY go wro....
oh never mind. [sad2]

We are not creating a terminator but artificial intelligence which will have a great practical importance in various fields

Sure looks like a terminator.

... to 20 inches of mercury

Which quite literally will pull that golf ball through a garden hose. Removing chrome off of a trailer hitch requires minimum 30" Hg.

There's a fair amount of specsmanship happening for the cameras. Lifting weights? Seriously? I don't see much that actually points to AI, which is where the real magic would be. I'm pretty sure it's nothing more at this point than a cool-looking mechanical repeater, with its human in a suit nearby for it to mimic.

In particular, I have trouble believing that it was "driving" that computer simulator without being told what to do. I don't think machine vision has progressed to the point where it can recognize and interpret 2D images on a screen to represent 3D objects the way a human brain can.

That said, it's neat from a space work perspective, as essentially a remote-controlled set of hands.

Sex assistant? What they do, run out of Russian hookers?

 

[goodzilla]

Shooting Russian space robot. What's not to love?

 

[JohnZ]

Lighten up guys. It's tough enough for a robot to be gender non-binary.

 

[MisterHappy]

CONFLICT ALERT!

I think I see a "Boris.build" logo on that sucker!

 

[Waher]

I think Boris posted this so that in a month when be builds a better robot out of a Teddy Ruxbin tape deck, pc98 system board, camcorder, discarded propane powered refrigerator, and a few salvaged RadioShack RC car kits, we will be most impressed.

This thread is gold. Though maybe I'm just easily amused this morning.

The hookers have all moved to Anastasia Date.

What no shovel? There has to be a shovel in that build somewhere.

Obviously if it's going to look act like a terminator it has to look like Arnold so it needs to lift weights.

You're seeing it without the wig...

...and the bikini.



BTW Boris, are you working with the Russians on the new Kalishnikov/Lebedev pistol?

The Kalashnikov Corporation, the producer of the internationally renowned AK47 - arguably the world's favorite assault rifle since its creation in 1949 - is planning to complete trials of the advanced Lebedev PL-14 pistol before the end of the year, it has been announced.
