    I see you’ve never gotten sand in a brushless motor, or seen how most of those robots move outside of a choreographed scene, or thought about their battery capacity. :)

    All that aside, I think they were talking the morality of it.

    10/10 I would rather fight one of those than a human.
    Humans are quite durable, adaptive, and agile.
    I twisted my ankle once doing a task I’d never done before. I adjusted my footing and carried on. Our current humanoid robots cannot adjust to something like that. They’re just not designed in a way that makes them adaptable to changing physical layout.
    I might be squishy, but I only have two places that are vulnerable to sand and they come with covers that usually work pretty well, and one of them is mostly redundant.
