    I think it’s different enough from Artificial Intelligence to have its own thread.

    Robots and Humans compete in half-marathon in China… most stumble and have balance issues, but the best robot came in at 2 Hours and 40 Minutes… not winning, but probably better than your average human, and it’s news that it completed the half-marathon at all:

    (The photos in the article are… interesting)

    There’s also Musk working on his Optimus robot line to release in coming years, that he says will cost $20-30k per robot, if it ever happens. And competitors too.

    They are already drafting an EO in Murica to ban those robots from competing in womens sports probably.

    Just kidding, it’s already signed.

    I'm glad we're burning the rain forests in order to build computers that tell us to add glue to our pizza, and robots that can run slightly worse than humans.
