Lots of very stupid “durr, big deal, cars exist” takes on this news here on the bloo skies. Is this anti-AI/anti-tech dementia? What, specifically, is your glitch?

Lightning, a running robot developed by Chinese smartphone maker Honor, finished a 21-kilometer (13 mile) run in Beijing in a stunning 50 minutes and 26 seconds, beating the human world record by more than six minutes. https://cnn.it/4mLRxQ8

I think the glitch is largely caused by the very leaders making this technology telling us all it is our doom and will disrupt and displace us. Nobody is out there telling us to love it. The very people making it are begging us to hate it. It’s a very strange marketing campaign.

(For the record I use ai daily but have a hard time blaming detractors for being grumpy about it all. Robotics and ai are rife with charlatans, hype, doom, and the wealthy consolidating more wealth… hard to get excited about! Even this is a story about robots outdoing us in a leisure activity… yay?)
