An autonomous #robot that is not autonomous at all.

First, I can definitely fold shirts faster than that. Second, Optimus wasn’t acting autonomously, which is obviously the end goal. Instead, the robot is here acting like a very expensive marionette, or at best a modern facsimile of the first rudimentary automotons, going through prescribed motions to accomplish its task. Musk said that eventually, it will “certainly be able to do this fully autonomously,” however, and without the highly artificial constraints in place for this demo, including the fixed height table and single article of clothing in the carefully placed basket.

"One of the most harrowing episodes in #StarTrek franchise #history!"
The USS #Enterprise encounters the wrecked USS #Constellation and its distraught commodore who's determined to stop the #giant #planet-destroying #robot #ship that killed his crew.

The U.S.S. Constellation and its crew were destroyed by a giant robot ship which consumes planets for fuel, leaving only a guilt-ridden Commodore Decker aboard the crippled ship. Kirk beams over to begin repairs while Decker beams aboard the Enterprise.

After Kirk loses radio contact with the Enterprise, the obsessed Commodore seizes command of the #starship, determined to destroy the planet-killer, even at the cost of Kirk's ship and the entire crew.

This #AI #robot chemist could make #oxygen on #Mars

Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03522-4

Researchers in #China have developed a robot chemist powered by artificial #intelligence (AI) that might be able to extract oxygen from water on Mars. The robot uses materials found on the red planet to produce catalysts that break down water, releasing oxygen. The idea could complement existing oxygen-generating #technologies or lead to the development of other catalysts able to synthesize useful #resources on Mars.

Sounds like the beginning of a horror science fiction story because the developers forget to tell the AI when it is finished. So the AI transfered the whole Mars to oxygen...

Industrial #robot crushes man to #death in South Korean distribution centre

source: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/nov/08/south-korean-man-killed-by-industrial-robot-in-distribution-centre

A robot crushed a man to death in South #Korea after the machine apparently failed to differentiate him from the boxes of produce it was handling, the Yonhap news agency reported on Wednesday.

Do you remember the ethical discussion about whether self-driving cars should hit a child or an elderly person when in doubt? I always thought the discussion was misguided because the sensors can't even separate a person from a box.
