    Useless safety theater. The actuation force this thing must have if it can ambulate and manipulate things? A knife is the least of my worries. What if it grabs me and breaks my arm or kicks me and shatters my shin? This thing would be far more efficient than a human at beating you to death.

    The grip strength alone!

      It couldn’t crack a walnut in the video
      While dangerous, yes, a maid can do the same thing

        Because it can’t technically or because it is artificially limited by software and/or hardware that can fail?

        The fact that it can stand itself up means the actuation strength for the legs/thighs/etc has to be somewhat significant, unless they’ve managed to make this thing 10lbs
