      Pretty sure it’s at least semi-autonomous. In the video you can see the bots react to hits and recover their footing, there’s no way a human can control all those reflex actions in real time.

      It’s not like we stood a chance anyways. Just strap a gun to those Boston Dynamics dogs and we’re all doomed.

    Can we get robots vs wrestlers like in HIMYM? At least one dream not tainted by the future.
