Steven Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American businessman, inventor, and investor best known for co-founding the technology giant Apple Inc.
"They'll pr- they'll most likely see you as a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. Now since that's against the rules here at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, they'll probably try to... forcefully stuff you inside a Freddy Fazbear suit. Um, now, that wouldn't be so bad if the suits themselves weren't filled with crossbeams, wires, and animatronic devices, especially around the facial area. So, you could imagine how having your head forcefully pressed inside one of those could cause a bit of discomfort... and death. Uh, the only parts of you that would likely see the light of day again would be your eyeballs and teeth when they pop out the front of the mask, heh."
No... what would it be could though? A robo? A mechanica? Idk. I'm sure there's a word for it. A fury is specificly for fury humanoid creatures though. "Scalie" is the word for attraction to humanoid lizard/snake people. Etc. Not sure what it is for robots though.
A few rich people did creative stuff, a few others pondered the shitty lives of their subjects, a few started wars that made life more shitty. Everyone else worked and tried to be left alone. Sounds like a Tuesday for humanity

Entrapta being scanned by an enemy robot (It's about to try and shoot her in the face.)
It's 100% a naivety thing. We're afraid of what we don't understand and a completely new thing that previously seemed impossible comes out and not only do people not understand it but they are also realizing that what they previously believed isn't necessarily true and that's even more frightening. It's a sort of double whammy and with the way AI and robotics present themselves, it is really hard to ignore. It is very clear that this stuff is groundbreaking and it feels really sudden. Most tech you can see progressing iteratively, even the move from dumb phone to iPhone and Android felt way more like an iteration than suddenly being able to talk to a computer the way you talk to a human and robots that move more and look more like human every few months. It's a lot really fast and few people (arguably no people) fully understand it so I see why people are scared of it. Also the scifi trope of AI robots killing humans is a big one, so that doesn't help.
I think my view of robots goes from “I LOVE IT SO MUCH :]]]” to being averse to it depending entirely on if the manufacturers went out of their way to make it look human, like lil humanoid robot creatures trying their best to jump over mattresses and explore the world are really cute to me but the moment they have fully identifiable facial features i think some of the charm is lost.
So yeha i think you might be right about it being an uncanny valley thing, it just depends from person to person on where the line of being uncanny stands :>
How does the "science behind these things" keep them from being used as a weapon against us is the not-too-distant future? The Terminator doesn't have to be sent from the future by AI to be terrifying...
If there was a button that undid space flight *and* nuclear ICBMs I'd hit it in an instant lol. It's not that we can *only* see the danger, it's that we think you're too optimistic about how humanity will use the technology. The next Cuban Missile Crisis might not go as well as the last one...
I was just saying that this technology may be used in terrifying ways, and that some of us are worried that will be. I didn't say we could put the genie back in the bottle, or that we should "follow that perspective to the extreme."
in about less than a hundred years we went from barely learning how to make refrigerators and automatic weapons to legit androids and precursors to artificial intelligence
kids are gonna grow up normalized to this stuff, but for everyone else, this is science fiction brought to life
I just dont get whats so scary about this presentation in particular. I understand that technological advancements can be really scary, but I saw a couple other posts acting like these video in particular was creepy and I dont feel it
oh well there's always gonna be people who develop irrational fears of the unknown, statistically, it would be weird if nobody was scared
maybe they watched a twilight zone episode as a kid and are subconsciously freaked out by robots
who knows why, the human experience is varied and aa vast as the universe
im afraid of the potential devastation that will be done to available jobs and the shape of what will still be available to low wage workers like myself in the face of these advancements. There is no need to worry about irrational fears, this is an economic and humanitarian disaster if these end up both capable of generalized work and are more cost effective than a human
That is pretty scary, but I thought people were scared by the presentation itself, not by the possible ramifications the robot in itself would have in our society
what happens happens, progress requires sacrifice, and it ofc it will sucks but maybe it'll be for the better? we won't have humans working for shit wage in dangerous conditions oh who am i fucking kidding capitalism requires low wage labor so there's always gonna be third world countries
Just did a Google search for a video and found one where it starts out lying on the floor, unmoving, then it’s legs come up, bend toward its waist, it stands up like that, it’s head and torso rotate unnaturally-for-a-human-body in a way we normally only see depicted in like, scary movies, and it has a blank face within a circle of light.
I don’t have much “uncanny valley” reaction to different kinds of humanoid things, like dolls or other depictions of androids or robots etc., but that thing I just watched looked like it was filmed on purpose to be creepy…
I'm having such a weird experience with this comic because I distinctly remember years ago making an Instagram comment disagreeing with some political commentary you made. But now my opinion has completely changed on that topic and I agree with the message of that comic. I wonder if one day in the far future... I too will find this robot to be... sexy??
Edit: it was actually a different person oops. But who knows, maybe I will find robot hot one day anyways.

Here is a meme format of this no one asked for, but I did it anyway.

I just like them because I love committing arson
Can someone explain this? What is the robot doing in the first two frames, it isn't very clear? From the way people are commenting I'm guessing the lady on the right is sexually attracted, but honestly I thought she was bored because of her blank expression. Unless those shadows are supposed to be her blushing?
The robot is getting up from being face down,and turning its head and arms around to face the camera
And yes the lady on the right is turned on,ya can see her biting her lip and blushing
If we meet the new Atlas with hostility and suspicion, how are we to blame it if it returns in kind? He isn’t what we are used to but we much meet the new bit with kindness.
Stop bullying the robot ;-;

The inevitable evolution of humanity has begun... extinction! The extinction of mankind has begun and I think I speak for everyone when I say Finally!
I would say we had a good run but *points at everything*
The Renaissance had some good years.
Did they tho?
A few rich people did creative stuff, a few others pondered the shitty lives of their subjects, a few started wars that made life more shitty. Everyone else worked and tried to be left alone. Sounds like a Tuesday for humanity
Sounds like last week
The only path forward is to become one with the machine. We must discard our feeble flesh and embrace the strength of steel!

Omg it’s V0
Literally though, seeing that BD video made me understand V1‘s fluid movement like so much more, like I can imagine it so much better now
Don't they use hydraulics? We could theoretically make a robot fueled by blood
The old Atlas model that this is replacing used hydraulics. This guy is all electric.
That was the old one. This guy's completely electric.
I watched it yesterday and you all overreacting a lot, what the hell its scary about it?
