Pixar Lamp got an upgrade

Notice how the arms are identical rather than mirrored left-right? That's a nice touch for cost and ease of manufacture.

It’s so fascinating how we’re recreating the animatrix/matrix movies in real time. Because THIS TIME it will be different

Danger, Will Robinson.

Video ends with robot walking towards hockey stick.

Straight out of Black Mirror. Imagine that "get up" scene in a horror movie. .... RUN

This makes 'Tesla Bot' looks like a toy

Thanks for sharing the era of not being hunted by killer robots with me, everyone. Sad to see it end so soon.

Why pay $10k for full self driving, if you can buy a robot for $25k that can drive you like a chauffeur, give you a massage, make your bed, fix your house, clean your room.....................

So they saw the assassin droids from star wars and went "yeah that's a good idea."

This is, without question, one of the most unsettling things I've ever seen. It's as cool as it is terrifying.

Lay observation: The all electric feature is what makes the reversibility of limbs, torso, head, feet and hands possible. It would probably be impossible to reverse appendages with hydraulics. The lines would get twisted.

Boston Dynamics continues to push new boundaries of robot athleticism and creepiness.

Terminator with Pixar lamp😂. It's just like Skynet. There's Drones, Dogs, 2.0 Humanoid and Ai is on it's way. When will judgement day happening ?

Fascinating after all this time being passed by other players in the field they finally decided to give it another shot and play catch up.

We are building them because an aging society isn't going to have enough people to help the elderly and disabled who need help. Plus, there are lonely people who want companions; the list is really endless. And now, with AI getting close to AGI, it's the time. Great video Matt

Its not that they went "futuristic with the design". That's the only design it can have to achieve that. WE ARE IN THE FUTURE. LOL BTW; If they take the best of the hydraulic atlas and make a hybrid electric one. Holy shit..

People take out car loans for $30k or more. They won’t hesitate to take out a loan for a robot that can mow, read bedtime stories, provide a security patrol around the home, prepare meals, vacuum and clean, take the trash to the curb, play Dungeons and Dragons, do landscaping, pick grandma up and put her back into bed, take your blood pressure and provide first aid, change the oil in your car, watch your kids while they’re playing in the backyard, walk your dogs, help run your business, etc. I mean heck, the money they will save families on nursing homes alone will easily justify the investment.

Any sergeant will love this new Atlas: no soldier is capable of such perfect turnarounds.

How SHOCKING!!!! I’m definitely SHOCKED!

According to a simple Google search, Hyundai exceeds 34k factory employees.....Ford motor Co. about 175k McDonald's.....150,000 Coca cola.... neighborhood of 79k .... and so on. But yeah! that all sounds amazing kinda like a..... real life version of the hunger games.... can't wait to see it! 😁

When you say something shocks the industry - I take it seriously haha. You're one of the few channels in this space that I fully respect.

Come to think of it, robots don't need a front or a back. Why not symmetry backwards and forwards, ingenious and also great for manufacturing tooling and ease of parts replacement... great job Boston dynamics

Thanks for sharing

How much longer until their released we all need them now more than ever

Elon is trying to make the stuff he saw in a sci-fi movie from the 80's while these guys are actually innovating.

The way it moves is very disturbing, but comical at the same time. Its design aesthetic is rather like a toy robot from the 80s. I like that.

the fact that it can move front to back is very scary. It is beyond humanoid

"...Employee buy-in,...?" In what world are employees ready for this email?: "...we need you to come to HR to meet your replacement. Say Hello to Atlas 2.x"

Thanks for reading their blog post to me interspersed with old BD videos... for 10+ minutes.

5 seconds before the video starts: "Phew! Sir, I think we finally killed it! Wait... it's moving again! OH FU~!!!" 😅

The Head, and Hips. Legs demonstrated 180 turns. 👍 If the Arms do also, it doesn't have to turn it's body around to work behind it. So efficient❗ But the Hips turn is almost as good. 👍 It looks like everything can do a 180 to 360. Head, Arms, Legs, Torso, oh my❗

Yeah, straight out of Fallout: "- I thought I will be taken as sex slave or something... - Oh no ! This is disgusting ! I will only take your organs !"

Hats off to Boston Dynamics! That's a fantastic robot.

Very interesting developments in robotics. Although, what I find most interesting here is the comments. Speaks volumes about us and our perceptions.

Just wait how nice it looks wearing weapons when DARPA is chiming in again.

Boston Dynamics must be pissed that they chose to spend so much time messing around with hydraulics when it's been obvious to everyone for years that all-electric was the obvious solution

I love robots. But the intro was slightly creepy and aggressive from a cinematic perspective. It reminded me of the horror film where the demon asian lady starts crawling like a crab. Then Altas 2 gets a little aggressive because it's like hey you talking to me and then it gets up into the personal face of the viewer. I think it inspires fear ;0 Also I think if it got into a fight the Tesla or the other, Altas will kick their bots kicks :) I am a Atlas 2 fan for sure.

this is fucking terrifying.

I still want Asimo! That cute little guy who doesn't frighten anyone 🥰

The industry must have been reduced to a pulp by now considering how many times it has been entirely shocked.

That robot standing up isn't nightmare fuel at all...

Idk why this is making me so gitty like im scared but also excited like i would want one thats matt black and can change the light color and it dont really need a face im fine with the screen face so it can show videos or weather and i wouldn't mind if it had the dots on its face like the figure 1 robot

Get that robot a Strap-on!

Give Atlas 360' view and several different weapon types, small flame thrower which doubles as a thruster for an assisted fist punch, other arm would consist of a small tesla coil (maybe energize the exoskeleton?), both of these would be used if the held weapon ammo was exhausted. Perhaps a sonic weapon (close range very high decibel), or perhaps a very small hidden tightly blue light focused laser. All of these combined wouldn't take up much room and its tech that's already miniaturized and available.

It's like IG-88, But you can live-stream into it's face.

"Can't wait for A.I. to "get hold of this" . . ? 😮

What an exciting time to be alive! We are watching the birth of a new era!

ok, when they ask for Sarah Connor I'm calling quits!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="158">2:38</a> this robot has anger management issues and is knocking stuff of the shelf with the item it wants to place there. Aggressive algorithm.

The circular face should be a matrix display that can project a mirror image parody of your face as you give it commands. This way you could see yourself when your bossy.

Glad they maxed background transformer sound to reduce sound of the robot moving. Loud AF. Still wouldn’t mind if it could scrub my toilet

As soon as Boston Dynamics is trying to building a factory to mass produce Atlas 2.0 with the "Darpa Upgrade" you know what to do, right?

So freaking awesome, looks so CGI....uncanny

The human finger is a tool that can't be replaced 😊

These shocks keep getting shockier

I'd like to see some progress on robots handling falls more safely & gracefully. Hydraulic Atlas curled up, but didn't have reflexes to break its fall or, for example, turn a trip into a forward roll - that would be _really_ cool.

this is amazing. but it still defines forward by its torso. it could walk "backwards" perfectly fine, but it rotated the torso. maybe just a little quirk, or maybe it needs to do that to operate the arms better.

Kind of scary and cool. I think this is how the Terminator began.

Exciting!

I am ready for my close up .. see you in Caprica city

What progress was made in 10 years, is now being made in 1 year, or even less. Very impressive

I guess Boston Dynamics has a nightmare level 9000 robot already developed and is now filling the gap with progressively more horrifying machines. Looking at Atlas 2.0, i feel like getting hunted down and killed by spot is not such a bad thing after all....

The way its joints rotate all the way around is so upsetting

This is what you send to Mars.

Look Ma, no hands!

Weird Al can do that 360 degree leg rotation. You can see him do it in his "Living With A Hernia" video from 1986.

I predict a massive market will develop for some kind of super robust restraint system for home robots to use on them while you sleep.

That's actually very efficient getting it to swivel.

The hoop light, for you to be lit up in camera view. Clever

Watch Out! Between our smart meters on the side of our houses to these smart robots, Skynet is here!

Atlas 2.0 proudly sponsored by Devialet Phantom 😊

Creepy opening scene

A working ring light in the house would be nice. Hopefully before i die

Looks like something out of the exorcist

That was my best idea I had finished last week dam it

Can't wait for them to take my job. 😅

Atlas is so impressive

Boston Dynamics is the equivalent, to the robot industry, what SpaceX is, to the rocket industry.

They are by the far the leading robotics company, every one wants the level of development in there robots

it'll walk even way smoother if they put a 3-plate foot design which allows the robot to tip-top walk and smoothly transition to the next step and it won't look like jumpy gait.

Could they get a couple of thousands of those to 'volunteer' for the Ukraine war? This is incredible.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="295">4:55</a> i have a third one lol. once they become complex enough to wonder who made them and if humans are relevant to keep around, its probably good if we look same-ish.

It looks like AMEE from the movie 'mission to mars'. Very cool! Hopefully that light on its head doesnt turn red 😮

I, for one, welcome our future robot overlords.

Just like ABB robots that took millions of jobs, this thing is what I knew was going to replace General Production workers in the Automotive industry.

The head of this new robot reminds me of the robot from the Netflix’s “Lost in space”.

In my opinion, most realistic use for humanoid robot today is as : 1. military drone 2. astronout replacement for build moonbase setlement,(need NASA Guide) 3. managing nuke waste, 4.costumer service, 5. security guarding werehouse for 24 hours replace your dog. 6. For entertaiment and showoff, stutman in film, no need CGI if you can make real robot, or as body double. For home servant is too far away, because that is more complex task. Real potential consumers today are military, goverment, and big company. Not for civilian.

I find its movements horrific. The stuff of nightmares. Head spinning limbs bending in unnatural ways. Now imagine this thing coming at you with a sharp object.

one day, the robots will be able to run on SHOCKs too!

Why does this give me Sharkboy and Lava Girl Vibes? 😂

Hello Skynet, my old friend

The potential and initial distribution of the "Atlas II" robotic workforce is expected to commence in 2025. Hyundai companies, along with their estimated workforce numbers, are based on the most recent data available: Hyundai Motor Company: Approximately 75,000 employees worldwide. Hyundai Engineering and Construction: Around 6,902 employees. Hyundai Heavy Industries: More than 30,000 employees. Hyundai Mobis: Around 37,000 employees worldwide. Hyundai Steel: Approximately 18,000 employees. Hyundai Wia: Around 4,000 employees. Hyundai Motor America: Over 5,000 employees in the United States. It's important to consider that these figures might not be precise and could vary with time. Moreover, several of these companies belong to the broader Hyundai Motor Group, which has a global workforce exceeding 150,000 employees.

Fully electric means it more quieter than hydraulics. The hum in the video is background noise. It's not coming from the robot itself.

This restors my faith in AI

Dear god, with every day the automatons come closer to being real, helldivers we must unite FOR DEMOCRACY!!!!!

OK let me be clear, if I see a robot like that on the floor and it gets up like that I'm grabing the nearest heavy object and smashing the robot till it stops moving.....that is "The Ring" creepy!! Oh yea and that goes double for Spot!!

When they say fully electric, are they referring too old Atlas HD using hydrolics for motion?

How long do the batteries last?
