You might think you already know Spot, the robot dog from Boston Dynamics. Maybe you saw a viral video of it opening a door, or dragging a truck, or dancing. But now, this robot has hit a HUGE milestone... Spot got a job!
These robots are now out in the real world doing real work, for fire departments, factories, defunct nuclear power plants like Fukushima, ancient ruins like Pompeii, deep mines, and, more controversially, police departments. You might already be starting to see robot dogs walking around, and even if you’re not, they’re starting to affect your life.
That’s why we went to visit Boston Dynamics. In this video, we put Spot to the test, to show you what it’s really capable of, and how our future could be even better with robot dogs.

All it ends with is the robot with the back-attachment application. Much like the production of a jeep -- just when the military buys in -- they'll freely attach the weaponization to the jeep. So, it doesn't really matter, by the end of the day, if the tools prove usefulness -- any actors (good or bad) will make use of it.

We have one of these robot dogs at one of the facilities here at GRC. It's used to check on machinery that is too loud for humans to check on while it's running, even with hearing protection. The robot dog can even go up and down stairs lol
@DavidMulderOne 3 ай бұрын
The thing to realize is that for *most* inspections tasks it's far cheaper to mount 50 cameras all over the building that will do non-stop monitoring, rather than have 1 super fancy camera walking around, *but* some of my favourite examples where it actually makes sense to use these robots is to handle cases you didn't plan for as a relatively capable 'remote presence' platform. I think this is how a bunch of swiss or austrian hydroelectric plants were planning/thinking of using them. Most of them don't have a constant human presence, and they do have a bunch of monitoring installed although the installations themselves are old and have a lot of old equipment, so when something is wrong a human has to drive there to check it out (with some of them being fairly remote). The idea was that having something like spot in each of those could allow better triaging.

Boston Dynamics is an American company owned by South Korean Hyundai. Prior to being sold to Hyundai, they belonged to Japanese SoftBank, and before that to Google. It was specifically at Google's insistence that Boston Dynamics got out of military-related research and development. It is hard to see them going back. Although there are all sorts of restrictions on how much Korea can influence the operation of the company, Boston Dynamics is still foreign-owned.

I really like the use cases with factories, mines, and nuclear plants as it really seems those use cases are heavily based in the idea of robots helping humans. However, the military and police use cases for this is appalling and pretty terrifying as those are based in the idea of suppressing humans. The pack mule idea and a more bomb-sniffing variant I think is totally fine, but that in my opinion is an extremely slippery slope and will lead to more human suppressing variants. Unfortunately there’s nothing we can do about that slippery slope. Boston Dynamics might be on board with the right ideals, but the military, police, and greedy corporations who will have access to similar technology very soon will NOT carry those same ideals.

I don't think they were weaponised just fitted with a loud speaker telling people to stay inside. But they were still being used in somewhat of an evil capacity. 🤷♂😕

@@johnk6598 there's a very fine line between "protecting" a country and general meddling in politics. Russian internal propaganda has explained the invasion on Ukraine as "protecting" the Russian citizens living in the area. And the US is always sending out missions into the middle east with questionable results. Not to mention alot of conflicts don't have a 'right' and 'wrong' side. Enabling robotics into military uses causes as much harm as it has potential to do good, if not more.

I'm not a fan of these type of video's. They feel more like an advertisement for the company involved instead of it having much journalistic value. To put it bluntly, it feels like a giddy school girl that goes out on a field trip to a company and then gives a presentation about it, based on the information that came from the brochures that the company gave to take home. No real investigation into the pro's and con's of this technology and the company that is selling it to other companies and governments and the moral responsibilities that come with that. Just a simple PR statement where Boston Dynamics states that they do not support the weaponization of their robots. And that's it, no further questioning.

Great video, as always. Question: where does one get merch? (Cool sweatshirt.)

Hi, Cleo! I've been a silent subscriber for a while now, but I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your content! So much of the online talk around tech these days is negative to the point that I worry that certain groups will latch onto this to push an anti-science agenda. Thank you for making informative, entertaining content about the positives of tech that also acknowledges the POSSIBLE downsides!

I'm 65 and the changes I've seen throughout the years is mind blowing. I'm excited to see how these robots are used in the coming decades. Exciting times.

This technology can be adapted for use by fire departments for search and rescue. This is something I would like to see developed soon to reduce the threat to live firefighters.

This is a really cool video. I learned several new things about these robot dogs. So, what is the “battery life” for a robot dog? And is it smart enough to return home when the battery is getting low? Are all of its routines and capabilities built in, or does it offer the ability to teach it new things (and new things doesn’t mean using its built in capabilities to do a new task)?
