Machine apocalypse imminent. Scariest robot ever.
Posted by Imran on 22/01/2010
Ok humans, let’s pack our bags and go home.
If climate change or swine flu doesn’t get us, the machines definitely will. I came across BigDog via this talk on TED, where Juan Enriquez talks wonders aloud about a version of the Turing test. On the basis of this video, we’re not far from the point where we can’t immediately tell the difference between a machine and an animal.
If genuinely want to have your mind blown, check out the kick at ~35 seconds in. I was pretty much ready for it to turn around and charge at the guy.

Mate. That is a seriously scary robot. It actually moves like a real animal!
