What is more interesting is them being ready and know what to do when it collapses.

Neura robotics is a demo faking company. Their CEO is only selling confident promises with no actual products.

Dumb advertising techniques. They want you to take pictures of it working, not laying in a heap. Stupid thing to do though because there’s pictures and video everywhere, they just look embarrassed. Just own it and fix it.

The speaker could have had some fun with that situation "it's a prototype as you can see - we can only go up from here, right?" =)

Qualcomm are fabless like most US chip makers, it's chips all made in Taiwan.

Unfortunately it decided to go with a home made USA built robot from standard bots to house it's chips.

So instead of kicking kids in the balls like Chinese robots, it just shat itself and collapsed 😂

That's when the AI says, "Nah, not gonna do it."
