…replacing the previously hydraulic version.
Insert obligatory welcome statement here.
Can it outrun a kenyan in a marathon?
Or the real question is if a battery can be made small enough to fit in a human sizef robot that can keep it running over 42km
It says exceed human performance, not exceed the peak humans in a given discipline.
Could Kiptum, race an F1 car as fast as Lewis Hamilton?
Could Lionel Messi play basketball like peak Kobe?
Sure the headline is hyperbole, but I don’t think we still should compare things like this.
Hyperbole is an understatement, the headline is obviously just trying to generate clicks. Idk how else we should quantify “human performance” though. Should we compare it’s strength to a sedentary office worker instead? I think the marathon comparison is actually very generous because I doubt this thing can even replicate a reasonable facsimile of a soccer performance.
Indeed. And lots of normal human beings are able to run marathon. Pretty easy if you set your mind to.
Only got one question for ya here fellas, can it fuck?
The orifice is working on that module
I want to fight it.
Everyone has a plan until a pneumatic metal fist hammers them silly.
What if being hammered silly by a pneumatic fist is my plan?

Cheryl Tunt is that really you?!
It’s CAROL!
I mean, the planet’s dying, but ok. At least we’ve got robots that “excced human performance” in making their overlords profits. Imagine if these scientists were putting their efforts to real use.
The planet is fine, humanity is dying. But that’s ok.
Is it, though?
Yes. The planet doesn’t give a single fuck. It went through many extinction level events and it’s still here.
