Video of humanoid robot "that can fight" sparks discussion about security robots

1 reports · 1 sources

A 61-second video shows a silver-white humanoid robot taking a run-up and flipping onto a car roof, denting the car door with a knee strike, and smashing the hood with an elbow strike; in daytime it also stands between a knife-wielder and a woman. Based on this, TMTPost discusses why security humanoid robots first serve high-purchasing-power groups, saying that through "being able to fight" they embody "not betraying," and are an "invisible luxury item." The article also cites Rushkoff's "Survival of the Richest," in which a wealthy person asks "how to maintain authority over the security team after the event," as background for this discussion.

  1. Why the wealthy buy security robots first, seen through humanoid robots that can fight

    In a 61-second video, a silver-white humanoid robot sprints and flips onto a car roof, dents the door with a knee strike, and smashes the hood with an elbow, then stands between a knife-wielding person and a woman in broad daylight. Drawing on Douglas Rushkoff's "Survival of the Richest," in which the wealthy ask how to maintain authority over a security force after a major event, the article argues that security humanoid robots will first serve high-purchasing-power groups, that being able to fight shows they will not betray their owners, and that they are an invisible status symbol.
