Never mind DeepSeek – watch what Boston Dynamics’ Atlas can do

You’re probably familiar with the increasingly adept Boston Dynamics robot range, Spot and Atlas. If not, here they are having a New Year boogie, back in 2020.

Things turned a little more dystopian when the NYPD took one on a raid.

Since 2023, it looks like they’re coming to steal our jobs. Not my job – DeepSeek is coming for that.

Watch this.

The robot’s problem-solving skills and agility could make it a useful tool in search and rescue situations, as well as on a construction site near you, apparently. Perhaps Health & Safety might want a word about throwing tool bags, first.

We’re living in the future, and not everybody’s sure they want to.

Atlas wouldn’t just be taking paid jobs.

The whole thing hits a little differently with this overdub.

Can it make a mug of tea, though?
