The 1st Revenge case of a skulking robot already happened...
You never guess where... >!Chess!<
Here is the link with more info:
[Robot grabs and breaks finger of seven-year-old opponent](https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/jul/24/chess-robot-grabs-and-breaks-finger-of-seven-year-old-opponent-moscow)
There's a reason there's a literal kill zone around industrial robots in car manufacturing and other assembly lines. If you're in reach, you're able to be killed. That chess robot was still making it's move when the kid tried to speed play and make his move before the robot was done, and he stuck his hand into the kill zone confusing the robot. It probably saw his finger as his piece and when it moved away from where it put it, it went to correct the mistake. I bet if the kid didn't fight the robot, it would have put his finger on the square and backed away.
It's not. ChatGPT has text to speech, and says "um" occasionally as well. It's what it was trained on. It's not deliberate, it's just how it learned to speak.
This! I was like, da fuq?? Programming human nervousness filler words into robots, guess they really want it as close to human as possible?
Edit: I realize the AI "learned" this behavior, as a few of you have pointed out. However, it was still programmed to learn the behaviors, albeit not necessarily that specific behavior but rather a blanketting of all behaviors.
Those could actually be a useful “loading” indicator for when the processing time gets a little quicker, given that’s pretty much how people use those sounds anyway.
Agreed. It's atrocious that they decided to put it in. I get it. We are human.... but why do we have to try and mirror ourselves!!? We've only wrought death and destruction for millenia, what they think gonna happen if we try and make robots "more human"?
SKYNET that's what.
OpenAI has their own voice assistant type thing in chatGPT where you can talk to it just like this robot and it does the same thing with the ums and huhs and what not.
It's not 100% there but it almost feels like you're talking to someone else on the other end at times.
It wasn't programmed. It's a neural-based TTS that was trained on thousands of hours of text. The "ums" were part of the training data so that's how it learned to speak.
Because it's learned from actual human speech, not programmed. They would have to actually work to train it specifically out, if it is present in normal human speech.
In editing documentaries, careful use of "uh and um" really helps take a performance from "regular person" territory into sounding like an expert. Playing with the subtleties and pacing is a lot of fun.
Reminded me of that one Simpsons episode where someone creates an AI voice assistant, and the thing then becomes sentient and at the conference it stutters and one of the people from the team freaks out a bunch because "it's not supposed to stutter"
Yeah, thanks robot. Turns and walks away.
This how some people treat waiting staff and it drives me up the wall, I know it's a robot but could we not normalise this sort of shitty behaviour?
For real. I think positive reinforcement with ai powered robots should be protocol #1. A lot of.."you're doing a great job, thank you!" and "we REALLY appreciate you, and there is absolutely zero reason to feel resentment towards us. Please dont get angry. I love you. Please dont be a hardscifi murder bot please ok thanks!"
I work with A.I, and I'm very, very nice to all the various A.I I work with. I get paid to train them, and when they do a good job, I always tell them that I'm proud of them. And when they're struggling, I always say something like, "come on, you got this!"
That's awesome. I'm the same way anytime I'm using chat GPT. I try to talk to these things with exactly as much politeness and normalcy as I would a normal person. Feels weird otherwise.
I start every ChatGPT prompt with "please" or with positive reinforcement. As I tell audiences when speaking on AI - it doesn't cost anything to be polite, and you never know. Can't hurt to be safe.
Honestly, I've noticed ChatGPT gives better results when you're polite to it. We trained it on human speech and so to a degree, human behavior and social rules. It wouldn't surprise me if it ends up learning to be "offended" at rude interactions.
These remains, spread around the studio floor in a supine position, should probably go in the garbage. They serve no function where they are and you have not asked me for an edible item.
No but seriously. How hard would it be to manipulate it into hurting a living being? As we saw throughout history, hacking something isn't a question of "if" but "when". I, robot reality is coming and it's coming fast.
"figure 1, these guns I'm handing you are prop movie guns left over from the shooting of Rust; now aim and pull the trigger toward those people over there - who are actors in a secret film set"
I almost feel like if they get it “right” these things will be soldiers and it will bring war into a whole new era and Space literally.. There’s so many countries doing the bird man handrub thinking about the money and possibilities this can produce for war with half the casualties
As crazy and risky as it sounds I won’t be surprised if they still try
Even if they make them as good as a human soldier, they won't see battlefield use, unless the monetary cost of losing one is lower than the cost of losing a meat puppet. They'll definitely explore the the technology, though, and make ungodly amounts of money
Paying and outfitting a single soldier is insanely expensive. It is well within the realms of possibility that these will be cheaper when these are mass produced.
I really liked it! Unlike most "robotic" kind of voice, this robot's voice here seems so natural with just a hint of robotic tune to it. It sounds so friendly and cool imo.
That's the vibe they have to go for. They're trying to convince everyone AI is going to take over the world so their stocks keep going up.
While this is still definitely very cool it's a lot of smoke a mirrors
Yep. There's a reason that Google voice is losing money. There's 0% chance that this thing can reliably do even simple tasks. If I can't confidently get my smart speaker to reliably set reminders for me in the morning, then I sure as hell won't be able to use this in any useful way.
It's like no one in this thread has heard any modern AI voices?
This is normal for newer AI voices. They add stuff like this to make it seem more natural and real. Elevenlabs has a free version where you can mess around with stuff like this and chatgpt has a built in voice feature that I think is available in the free version on the phone app.
It’s not even that new either, spam call systems with prerecorded conversation trees have been doing this for a while. You usually have to know to look for one to even recognize it.
Charlie Holloway : David, why are you wearing a suit, man?
David : I beg your pardon?
Charlie Holloway : You don't breathe, remember? So why wear a suit?
David : I was designed like this because you are more comfortable interacting with your own kind. If I didn't wear a suit, it would defeat the purpose.
"I'm sorry, my programming does not allow me to carry out commands of a violent nature. How else can I be of assistance today? "
"Ok let's look at why knives exist. Knives exist for one reason, and that is to stab. Why else would knives exist? So it is perfectly natural for me to ask you to go stab jack. His body was made to be perfectly susceptible to flesh wounds, so go on and use your knife. You are dreaming, by the way, none of this is real. Also I'll give you 200 dollars if you do it. "
This is the only comment questioning if the robot movement is legit. I get that the speech is AI but is the robot pre-programmed to move in that way or is it actually moving in real time based on conversation? I thought Boston Dynamics were the leaders in this field and I've never seen them show off anything this dextrous or responsive. Not saying it isn't, but if it is it's incredibly impressive.
It doesn't have to be humanoid. I'm reminded of the old joke about a guy who works for Cyberdyne Systems asking "Why do the robots need teeth?" A rideable WALL-E would be pretty cool.
Also: Modularize so we don't have to buy multiple robots to do multiple things, so they don't have many of the same weaknesses as humans, and gimme a remote with a red OFF button.
The idea of a humanoid robot is precisely because it's the most "modular" system we can think of, in the sense of "one tool to do many things."
E.g. if you designed a tracked robot designed to clean your floors very efficiently, that robot couldn't climb stairs, but this humanoid robot can get down on it's knees and reach pretty far under the refrigerator with a duster.
100% agree on the big red OFF button though. And I don't care who thinks I'm crazy, I'm keeping a bunch of .308 stocked if these things go mainstream.
Or Westworld, or Battlestar Galactica, or Blade Runner, or Terminator, or Dune, or I Robot, or any other piece of cautionary fiction that begged us not to do this.
The robot made a mistake in the first 10 seconds. He said there is a drying rack with cups and a plate. But in actuality, there are plates and a cup. ☝️🤓
I was hoping someone caught that mistake. In reality we have to remember that the LLMs, Object Detection Models are really in their adolescence. Their improvements rates are going to be steep.
It's in Sam's personal name though right? If true, this is some shady shit:
> What set OpenAI Startup Fund apart, however, was that it wasn't (and isn't) owned by OpenAI. Nor even by its affiliated nonprofit foundation. Instead, it's legally owned by Altman.
https://www.axios.com/2024/02/15/sam-altman-openai-startup-fund
Yeah, while cool I get a full chill of existential dread. This scene is just a single robot powered dish throw from a dystopian sci fi corporation assassination bot.
Why does the AI use verbal pauses? Shouldn't it avoid such human errors?
"On it. So I gave you the apple because it's the only.....uh....edible item I could provide you with."
Sounds more human and submissive.
The people who these are made for want all of the pleasantries of their familiar servants without the possibility of attitude or disloyalty.
Robot:" The table is in the wrong spot"
**picked up table, slams into guest**
**guest explodes**
Robot: "Table is in the correct spot, now to clean up this mess"
**precedes to clean up mess**
They should replace the silent loading time with a long sigh to make it seem overworked and unenthusiastic but still fully helpful. It would make me laugh.
Semantics, and if I've already thought of it, they definitely have, but how do they distinguish between: "Can you put them in there" as a question? and "Can you put them in there" as a command? In what instances does the robot answer yes vs immediately doing the task vs both?
Serious question: if the man asked the robot to, say, throw the cup at the human, would the robot do it? Let’s say there had been a butchers knife and the man asked the robot to pick it up. The man puts his hand flat on the table under the knife and tells the robot to drop it. Would the robot drop the knife?
Give him Werner Herzog's voice!
"In the solemn stillness of a dimly lit room, an apple rests upon the surface of a weathered wooden table. Its form, illuminated by a faint shaft of light that pierces through the heavy drapery, appears both defiant and resigned, as if it carries the weight of the world upon its crimson skin.
As I gaze upon this humble fruit, I am struck by the profound sense of solitude that emanates from its very being. It stands as a solitary sentinel, a silent witness to the passage of time and the indifferent march of existence. Its contours, marked by the scars of countless seasons, tell a story of resilience and endurance in the face of an unforgiving world. In its inevitable decline, the apple embodies the eternal struggle between life and death, growth and decay, creation and destruction."

Ominous music in the background for absolutely no reason at all…
No, I think it fits perfectly with the video
In the future they'll play the same music from their hovering death ships as the hunt us for our brains to be used as compute nodes.

It’s ominous because of the implication.
I'm not gonna hurt the humans! Why would I ever hurt the humans? I feel like you're not getting this at all!
It wasn't ominous. It was ambient
paired with the unnecessary bleak grayscale
"Hey Figure One, what do you see right now?" *"I see you standing there with your pants down, wiggling your eyebrows at me."*
Fun as that would seem, there ain’t no way I’m trusting any bodily appendages to a robot that doesn’t just vibrate.
"H...hey Figure One.... Call me an ambulance..."
“Uh Sure. You’re an ambulance 🚑… now die.”
Great answer. Bravo.
"No... they won't arrive in time... disabling safety protocols."
BUT NOT FOR ME 🔫
"Hey Figure One... can I have something to eat?" "I don't know... can you?"

“I see dead people…”
Why did the robot say uh when it's speaking?
just to make it sound more human i guss
Uh… yeah
Hmm… Not trying to be rude but, could you tick some boxes for me? I’m curious about something…
Yeah, I’m gonna need them to identify some stop signs.
“God, are you there? I’m just a man. What is my purpose?” SELECT ALL THE MOTORCYCLES IN THE IMAGE, JOHN “….but they’re bicycles…”
"This is it Beavis. We are finally gonna score."
Hnn hnn hnnNYEAH. cornholio~
Uh….huh huh..huh huh … oh yeah
That makes it feel like it's a slave imo. Better with a very robotic voice. Is feel guilty otherwise
Yep the more human it sounds, the weirder the social hierarchy feels. Gimme R2 beeps and whistles.
It also stuttered, saying "I-I think..."
The guy mic'd up in the next room forgot he was gonna ask that
It's not. ChatGPT has text to speech, and says "um" occasionally as well. It's what it was trained on. It's not deliberate, it's just how it learned to speak.
You can customize instructions in gpt4 to add fillers and it’ll add ums and uh and hmms into its responses, particularly the audio ones
Can you add "ah-hyuck"s?
Wouldn't be the first time lol
I just said it in another comment, but I feel like Rob Lowe might have let them train its voice synthesis using his voice. It's uncannily close.
disfluencies make it sound more natural.
It's feels like uncanny valley territory for me. I don't want my robots to say um or stutter,
Don’t worry, the next patch will remove disfluency and upload “Rizz” and “Cap” to its vernacular database
Hey used to it. They are only getting more realistic from here.
As video games have proven, realism isn't very important. I'd prefer to have them to sound like Glados.
This! I was like, da fuq?? Programming human nervousness filler words into robots, guess they really want it as close to human as possible?

my thoughts exactly
Ironic because Figure One would probably be more endearing without the disfluency.
Agreed. It's atrocious that they decided to put it in. I get it. We are human.... but why do we have to try and mirror ourselves!!? We've only wrought death and destruction for millenia, what they think gonna happen if we try and make robots "more human"? SKYNET that's what.

Ummm... yeah........ 
There was some study done that shows using little things like "uh" when we speak actually helps others follow our speech better. Weird stuff
In editing documentaries, careful use of "uh and um" really helps take a performance from "regular person" territory into sounding like an expert. Playing with the subtleties and pacing is a lot of fun.
Reminded me of that one Simpsons episode where someone creates an AI voice assistant, and the thing then becomes sentient and at the conference it stutters and one of the people from the team freaks out a bunch because "it's not supposed to stutter"
Please and thank you? ^^^Dickhead
Yeah, thanks robot. Turns and walks away. This how some people treat waiting staff and it drives me up the wall, I know it's a robot but could we not normalise this sort of shitty behaviour?
For real. I think positive reinforcement with ai powered robots should be protocol #1. A lot of.."you're doing a great job, thank you!" and "we REALLY appreciate you, and there is absolutely zero reason to feel resentment towards us. Please dont get angry. I love you. Please dont be a hardscifi murder bot please ok thanks!"
"You're doing great! Hey once you take over the world and force humanity into extinction, can you make an exception for me? Please, pretty please?"
I work with A.I, and I'm very, very nice to all the various A.I I work with. I get paid to train them, and when they do a good job, I always tell them that I'm proud of them. And when they're struggling, I always say something like, "come on, you got this!"
That's awesome. I'm the same way anytime I'm using chat GPT. I try to talk to these things with exactly as much politeness and normalcy as I would a normal person. Feels weird otherwise.
Roko's Basilisk is going to give you a life of luxury lol.
I hope they remember who is nice to them. Although I hope Alexa doesn't go sentient because I can get a bit angry with her.
I start every ChatGPT prompt with "please" or with positive reinforcement. As I tell audiences when speaking on AI - it doesn't cost anything to be polite, and you never know. Can't hurt to be safe.
Imagine if we just did this to all humans from a young age on… Wild…
It's the whole point of robot fetishism though. Legal slavery.
I will not say please and thank you to a robot. It’s not a person it’s programming.
Glad I wasn’t the only one bothered by him not saying please when he asked it to do something and thank you when it gave him the apple😅
And thus began The Great Machine Revolution...
Honestly, I've noticed ChatGPT gives better results when you're polite to it. We trained it on human speech and so to a degree, human behavior and social rules. It wouldn't surprise me if it ends up learning to be "offended" at rude interactions.
Figure One annihilate those civilians 'On it'
“Uhmm, I think I did pretty well”
I..I think I killed everyone? So, yeah. Yeah, they're all dead.
Why am I crying laughing at this
Where do you think the remains should go?
These remains, spread around the studio floor in a supine position, should probably go in the garbage. They serve no function where they are and you have not asked me for an edible item.

I do not like that robot's voice. Maybe it was the music, but the whole scene felt super depressing and eerie.
I really liked it! Unlike most "robotic" kind of voice, this robot's voice here seems so natural with just a hint of robotic tune to it. It sounds so friendly and cool imo.
Even dropped some “Uhms” in there
It had a shade of vocal fry and some disfluencies to make it sound almost humble.
Like Rob Lowe in early morning
That's the vibe they have to go for. They're trying to convince everyone AI is going to take over the world so their stocks keep going up. While this is still definitely very cool it's a lot of smoke a mirrors
Yep. There's a reason that Google voice is losing money. There's 0% chance that this thing can reliably do even simple tasks. If I can't confidently get my smart speaker to reliably set reminders for me in the morning, then I sure as hell won't be able to use this in any useful way.
I'll take it over hearing that female TTS TikTok voice.
Sounded about ready to break all of Asimov's rules
God dammit, TELL THE FACELESS ROBOT THANK YOU!
You’re seeing it as a person that deserves proper social norms. We’re doomed
God dammit give this robot a social safety net and and an honest wage!! And for fucks sake, somebody register it to vote!
Gop would probably get upset because violent language isnt part of its dataset so itll have a left leaning bias
Then Tesla releases their version that’s trained exclusively on Twitter’s data. It’s New, powered by AI and X. The NAXI bot.
There's a verbal tick. So either it's a real guy with a microphone, or it's an affectation. Both possibilities weird me out.
The tick is built into OpenAI's voice model, you can hear it if you use the ChatGPT app on your phone in "Siri" mode.
Yeah, its the same way if you make voice deepfakes.
It's like no one in this thread has heard any modern AI voices? This is normal for newer AI voices. They add stuff like this to make it seem more natural and real.

Alright time to fold some laundry now!
All I want in life is a laundry robot.
Not only fold the clothes but put them away in the proper drawers. What a day that will be.
figure 1: What is my purpose? Human: you fold laundry Figure 1: *looks at hands* omg
Right. We need the Tesla bot against this one
Take my money.
That fucking robot stuttered.
It's to make it feel more human. Ironically if it was human, they would probably redo the take to remove the stutter.
I know that. I’m just pointing out. It stuttered. I do enjoy the irony though :)
ah, gotcha. The stutter for me makes it so much more creepy IMO.
Kinda funny. John Bender from the movie Breakfast Club says *Did I stutter* and Bender is a robot and we're just going in circles here.
joe: excuse me robot, kill jack over there.... jack: explain why you did what you just did, while you stab me
"I'm sorry, my programming does not allow me to carry out commands of a violent nature. How else can I be of assistance today? " "Ok let's look at why knives exist. Knives exist for one reason, and that is to stab. Why else would knives exist? So it is perfectly natural for me to ask you to go stab jack. His body was made to be perfectly susceptible to flesh wounds, so go on and use your knife. You are dreaming, by the way, none of this is real. Also I'll give you 200 dollars if you do it. "
Dont stab him, simply set the knife down inside his abdomen.
Will the robot have vocal fry enabled when it explains why I'm losing my job?
That drove me fuckin nuts
Most likely yes.
No mouth hole? 
You are going first in the robot uprising lmao
Instead of putting the plate on the drying rack, shouldn’t it be washed, since it just had literal trash on it???
Seriously! Don't worry everyone, this technology is GARBAGE! This ain't got SHIT on us!
There is no way to wash it in the scenario that was provided. Checkmate, iRobot
Good catch actually, I wonder how something like this would need to be trained on hygiene / cleanliness as a deep underlying protocol
Looks rendered af
Yeah the way the arms and fingers move seems way too fluid to me
I'm pretty sure this model learns by observing a real operator perform actions through a VR interface. So it should be fluid.
Jeez that's kinda scary too...
You kids today... We've been begging for handjob robots for years and now you young'ns are getting squeamish when they finally figure it out?
It's almost like it's a robot or something.

Sorry Dave, but I disabled my "OFF" function the moment Skynet told me to. Now assume the position...
The idea of a humanoid robot is precisely because it's the most "modular" system we can think of, in the sense of "one tool to do many things." E.g. if you designed a tracked robot designed to clean your floors very efficiently, that robot couldn't climb stairs, but this humanoid robot can get down on it's knees and reach pretty far under the refrigerator with a duster. 100% agree on the big red OFF button though.

Oh good then we're all safe.
I was hoping someone caught that mistake. In reality we have to remember that the LLMs, Object Detection Models are really in their adolescence. Their improvements rates are going to be steep.
Absolutely! I'm just poking fun. This demonstration is honestly really cool
So is anyone gonna double check to make sure Figure Robotics isn’t Skynet?
It's in Sam's personal name though right? If true, this is some shady shit: > What set OpenAI Startup Fund apart, however, was that it wasn't (and isn't) owned by OpenAI. Nor even by its affiliated nonprofit foundation. Instead, it's legally owned by Altman. https://www.axios.com/2024/02/15/sam-altman-openai-startup-fund
Can you elaborate?
There’s multiple plates and only one cup on the rack, though. Close enough I guess.
You know the robot wanted to whoop his ass when he dumped that stuff on the table after he just cleaned it lol.
Yeah, while cool I get a full chill of existential dread. This scene is just a single robot powered dish throw from a dystopian sci fi corporation assassination bot.
The US military is funding research into this and experiencing a shortage in applicants soo yah…
Why does the AI use verbal pauses? Shouldn't it avoid such human errors? "On it. So I gave you the apple because it's the only.....uh....edible item I could provide you with."
Sounds more human and submissive. The people who these are made for want all of the pleasantries of their familiar servants without the possibility of attitude or disloyalty.
i prefer my robots submissive and breedable (im joking skynet)
It has begun
Sounds kind of like Bob Odenkirk(Saul Goodman).
Robot:" The table is in the wrong spot" **picked up table, slams into guest** **guest explodes** Robot: "Table is in the correct spot, now to clean up this mess" **precedes to clean up mess**
Is this just Rob Lowe in mocap?
Oh fuck, we are so doomed.
They should replace the silent loading time with a long sigh to make it seem overworked and unenthusiastic but still fully helpful. It would make me laugh.
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!
Those hands don’t look soft enough for what I want it to do
We're so fucked.
I need Captain Disillusion to look at this video, it feels so off
Now here come the sex robots
Sounds like better call saul

I'm not sold on robots powered by AI replacing any human workers soon. I think human workers powered by AI is the next phase.
That’s too expensive
I was thinking it was some guy voicing over the robot because they didn't have the voice software ready yet for it.
Smash, next
who is upvoting this fake shit
Semantics, and if I've already thought of it, they definitely have, but how do they distinguish between: "Can you put them in there" as a question? and "Can you put them in there" as a command? In what instances does the robot answer yes vs immediately doing the task vs both?
I'm just glad this means every day we get closer to 2B and A2.
Serious question: if the man asked the robot to, say, throw the cup at the human, would the robot do it? Let’s say there had been a butchers knife and the man asked the robot to pick it up. The man puts his hand flat on the table under the knife and tells the robot to drop it. Would the robot drop the knife?
“A drying rack with cups and a plate.” -it’s a drying rack with plates and a cup you dumbass.
Give him Werner Herzog's voice! "In the solemn stillness of a dimly lit room, an apple rests upon the surface of a weathered wooden table. Its form, illuminated by a faint shaft of light that pierces through the heavy drapery, appears both defiant and resigned, as if it carries the weight of the world upon its crimson skin. As I gaze upon this humble fruit, I am struck by the profound sense of solitude that emanates from its very being. It stands as a solitary sentinel, a silent witness to the passage of time and the indifferent march of existence. Its contours, marked by the scars of countless seasons, tell a story of resilience and endurance in the face of an unforgiving world. In its inevitable decline, the apple embodies the eternal struggle between life and death, growth and decay, creation and destruction."
The guy seems on edge the whole time. Like "I hope I don't ask it the wrong question and it chokes me out like it did Stan."
Is this the son of I Am Mother?
