Especially if the robot can update its own firmware.

Artificial Intelligence could mean Real Life Pissed Off.

Awesome progress. But I can't help feel it is a gimmick to make these
things have anthropomorphic movements!
They should have wheels and/or tank-like tracks.
Much more efficient for a machine to use those than to emulate our
complex, multiple articulated members.
But they have to market these things as "almost human", don't they?...
:(
