#132I love the FAQ that for some reason tells you this thing cannot cook but it doesn't tell you what it can actually do
To be fair, the actual “Product” tab that describes the products lists what it can do: * Water Plants * Turn off lights * Get the door * clean up trash * Load/Empty dishwasher * Tidy House * Laundry * Bartend Party * Feed Pets * Play music as the most over engineered Bluetooth speaker
> the products lists what it can do...
In other words, nothing very labor/skill intensive yet.
And if you let your robot feed your pets, they will eventually love the robot more than you. I suppose that's the last activity you'd want to hand over to an inanimate object.

#133Just in time for Halloween nightmares!!!!!!!! Imagine being a kid and waking up to this sitting in your room, silently watching you sleep. Imagine how terrified your dog is going to be of this thing, shuffling around or getting stuck with its foot on the edge of a rug. Imagine finding it going through your underwear drawer when you come home from work early.
And in 5 seconds after the first ones ship, there will be videos of people attaching all kinds of sex toys to it, making it even worse.

It actually is a Bluetooth speaker:

#135Earlier quoted context omitted.
Nonsense, Starlink’s latency is like 100 to 200 ms round-trip between China and the United States
Add on top of that the latency of the operator's equipment and the latency of the robot itself, and tasks like putting dishes in the dishwasher could get quite challenging
Considering what type of sensors that would need to be are already on these robots, would it not be possible to teleoperate within VR? So the motion and control can be more fulid but there is a lag before it is applied to real robot. Like how mosh[0] works.

#136I ordered one. They have nailed all the right things in my opinion: 1. Remote teleop with transfer learning 2. Quiet operation (nobody else is doing this) 3. Pulley based hands For that price, absolutely Plus I have epilepsy and live alone so this might just save my life
Wouldn’t something like an Apple Watch be much more reliable for alerting emergency services in case of seizure, given that fall detection is an actually advertised feature of it?

#137I want to believe its true, but this seems like quite a leap forward, at that price point. Even without AI, would we know if the videos were just a person in a suit?
It's mainly operated by a remote worker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3c4mQty_so
It was the first thing I also thought, but then I thought that would be ridiculous. But now I watched this video. And in fact, it's actually currently completely operated remotely. With the idea that they'll collect the human operated movements as training data for de AI. But right now they say the robot can autonomously only open a door.
So if you get the product now, then when the robot is operating, there's basically an extra person in your home.
You can apparentlty choose when it operates, and you can also block certain spaces in your house from the robot able to reach it. But it does feel to me like a recipe for disasters.

#138Cleaning robots are pretty good, and it's mostly a solved problem, for an order of magnitude (almost 2) under this price point. What else are we getting AT BEST beside taking out the trash and gimmicks?
What? Mostly solved problem? I can think of countless household tasks that I can't think of a robot for
