The To Do List with Spot | Boston Dynamics



Boston Dynamics

For an industrial robot built for the rigors of factories and power plants, tidying up a living room may seem like a light day at the office for Spot. Yet, this demonstration represents the promise of AI models in robotics. In this case, Google’s visual-language model (VLM) Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 was empowering Spot with embodied reasoning.

  1. They skipped getting the lead in the dog, I challenge Boston Dynamics for their robot to take my German Shepherd a walk, simple test, put the lead on him, not get destroyed, walk up the street, stop him eating other dogs, play with a ball with him in the park, pick up a poo and return home, I would place a multi million pounds bet the robot can't do it, I would give a sure certainty, the robot would end up in pieces, robotics is not GSD compatible yet!

  2. Are People with robot always this dirty ?
    It's always about picking cans and dirty clothes from the floor.
    Get some basic education before you get a robot

  3. Kids, just learn to pick up the shoes, clean up after yourselves and get the work done. Then after work… enjoy a walk out in the nature with your dogs instead.

  4. The dog needs the social energy and emotional intelligence of a loving human's interaction. It's not a task that can be checked off. Automate house chores and manual labor don't have an unaccountable radar sensor in control of a living feeling beast. It's man's best friend not a check on a to-do list. I get this is made by the marketing department for investors but you'll get very bed press and impressions from the home owner's this is targeting. Plates and laundry. Cleaning and maintenance. Not playing with my kids and walking my dog.

  5. Look, I love this. But currently robots with AI are just brain damaged humans that stare at shoes for 20 seconds to figure out those are shoes. It’s great to have something that can do human tasks very very slowly that you don’t have to pay or give benefits to. I get that a robot working 24 hours a day at 30% the speed of a human is better than a human for 8 hours. I get it. I just don’t see “the magic” until robots can recognize “shoes” in under 3 seconds and the robot can perform the task at the same speed a human could.

  6. Ooh! A new era, how exciting! Of course, I'll be at home, writing on the board things like 'finalize plan to take over the world'. Come on, Spot!

  7. I've been imagining how a robot would walk a dog, particularly a hard-pulling one that likes to zoom around, and it will only be practical with a 2000-lb robot with a low center of gravity!
