retard here, can you eggheads tell me if pic related could be developed within the next 20-50 years? Let's assume elon musk liquidates his assets and puts all his money towards the development of these (so funding is not an issue but money is not infinite). Lets assume an about 10ft tall robot. It does not have be sentient, but have enough automation and sensors equiped to follow commands and not accidentally kill somebody all the time. It must look very human but not be absolutely perfect. Yes? No? Why? Dont you dare to ask chatgpt
>>16999990Its possible but utility isnt there. More likely we get giant utility mechas first like Gundam. But the main barrier is that they are unable to move effectively due to energy density requirement needed to power super powerful and super precise control over fine limbic controls. Its better to put a giant mecha on top of a car/tank where the mecha can rotate its body and fire guns
>>17000014>Its possible but utility isnt there.I mean sure, that's why I wrote somebody like elon does this as a passion project or whatever. I cant think of any utility these would have that cannot be already fulfilled by a mobile crane. But seeing recent developments there seems to be a real drive atleast for normalsized humanoid robots - do I could see somebody in the future trying to make them bigger juat for the sake of it
>>17000260Elon's already building Optimus Prime
>>16999990>giant>barely twice the scale of the average 5'10 muttjust wrap a unitree GD01 in latex and accept the uncanny valley as sexy
>>17000266>>16999990 (OP) #>giant>barely twice the scale of the average 5'10 muttI mean if you make them taller make them taller, but gotta start somewhere>just wrap a unitree GD01 in latex and accept the uncanny valley as sexywait, that's pretty decent as a start, i thought we would have much more problems with them tipping over and stuff, looks like we are closer than i first anticipated
>>16999990>Lets assume an about 10ft tall robot.Think more bigly. :)
>>17000014>>17000290What problems could military mech's solve that tanks and bog standard artillery cant?
>>16999990Gaint robot useless without having giant penis.
>>17000351I dont think this will be a big problem if the rest is figured out, focus on the task at hand, anon
>>16999990This would be possible in 5-10 years.
>>17000938Nah, how? We dont even have the skin figured out yet. And that thing will probably wheigh like 2 tons and will have to have a lot of safeguards to not tip over and or kill somebody. Then there is problems like figuring out precise finger movements, etc.
>>17000319that's a worker mechit's a multipurpose forklift and small demolition unit as well as labor amplifierit's not designed for warfare, just strap a handful of drunk russians with AKs on the chassis if youre so horny for violence
>>16999990>giant lifelike robotsMy dream of a giant yandere maid... WILL come true!
