The future is terrifying. How many years before ice has those things chasing people down in the streets?

    Never. There's absolutely no need to use humanoid robots for that, other form factors would be much more efficient.

    I wanna say it was a dynamics robot that was awkwardly jogging because of an unbalanced load. Stopped. Got on all 4 and ran off WAY faster (50-60kph) up a rocky hill.they basically said going bipedal was really just to comfort the people around it.
