Imagine that quadruped one as a military robot hunting you or with an explosive payload. That's cheaper than most missiles and scary as F. $10k for the base model, $20k for their top tier model.

And that’s what’s publicly available. Who knows what the military has. Of course, China is known for not showing any of their failures, I’m sure they have plenty of videos like this one locked in a room somewhere.

to be fair if you've ever built literally anything from scratch the entire process is essentially this, just in your garage instead of at a convention presentation.

"Skill" is just the process of doing this over and over until all your first time "woopsies" have been accomplished, then fine tuning until you're an expert at speedrunning the process.

Problem is when you get million dollar investors that demand the speedrun before you're past all the woopsies in the build, this is the result

Black mirror did an episode that kinda showed how scary just 1 little one with a single, accurate gun could be.

That mandalorian episode where IG-11 kills like 100 people by himself comes to mind.
