    I don’t think you’re arguing in good faith,at this point. You send me an article about a specific humanoid robot, claiming it costs $8k. That article clearly states the make and model, as well as provides pictures of the unit in question. It is the Pudu D9 humanoid robot.

    So, I sent you the website where it is being sold, which clearly states a price, that doesn’t match your claim…and now all of a sudden, you don’t even know what robot you were talking about before?

    Give me a break, man.

      Yeah, well, searching things is impossible these days, and after clicking around for a while I found one that looked similar.

      I did read an article about one, went to their page and it was listed as $8k, I looked up the specs and it looked like it could pick up about 20lbs and has a weak but reasonable grip, and it made an impact. Then I saw video of someone recording one running down a sidewalk - it was a cell phone recording, but the robot was controlled by someone filming a demo in public

      I don’t really care if you take me at my word or not, the price factor to me means more because it means every robotics program in the world will be able to play with them.

      But again, this isn’t the core of my argument at all, but by the time I was looking up links I was kinda getting bored with this. I like to argue over ideas, it’s a field I’m following closely with so much happening and we’re just too far apart to make this constructive.
