Happy pre-TGIF. ☀️
Somewhere in Beijing, China, this week, a humanoid robot attempted a spinning kick, fell flat on its face, and watched its opponent celebrate with what looked suspiciously like a victory dance. The robots are competing at the World Humanoid Robot Games, which is apparently a real event and not the plot of a Pixar film we all missed.
It suspiciously looks like somebody is making a case for robots to compete in the Olympics soon. Or, at the very least, get their own event.
Anyway, if the robots take over, at least they’ll be entertaining about it.
