Seven years ago a video went viral of a prototype Russian robot, the ‘FODOR’, dual weilding Glock pistols. For those of us not paying attention at home this technology is notably absent from the war in Ukraine. This is a subtle nod to the fact that the idea of humanoid robots fighting wars is stupid.
Russia has been developing a humanoid robot for several years now. Its primary purpose is to help astronauts during space missions. Since its appearance in the media, there were discussions of how it can be used for military applications. And just recently a video appeared on the internet released by the Russian deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin on his social media pages.

Lol, no, we’re the apex predator because we have efficient cooling, can convey complex ideas to each other, and can make and use tools.
We can also eat pretty much anything… that’s a big advantage. Plenty of our favourite foods are poisonous tonamnynsnimals. Chocolate, spicy peppersz.
I was under the impression that surviving poisonous foods was entirely down to either specialisation or mass. Are you saying humans have a generalised immunity beyond our mass?
Fascinating!
Would you be able to provide a search term or link some reading on the topic?
Yea and why can we do that do you think if cats or lions had our sentient they coukd become like us ? Hell no not even close.
It’s because of our brains and ability to design tools. The only real physical upper hand we have on any animals is our endurance which is made obselete by anything resembling wheels.
Because tracks and/or quad rotors are hard to do biologically.
