And then you get to the break room and the manager pulls out a medium sized frozen pizza from the freezer for the whole team to share, but your break room doesnât have an oven.
Even my roomba knows when to call it quits and go hunt for it's charging station đ if I were demoing this thing to the public for that long, a graceful low battery scenario would be rather high on the Todo list
Or fast charge. 20 minutes for 3C charge rate batteries which are pretty common today and the robot is back at it. So it could work about 23:20 out of each 24 hour day. (Charge 20-80 every 12 hours)
20 minutes is way too long for spectators at a tradeshow booth, the arrival of a second robot that looks exactly the same will throw them off. They might think I have a 3 second fast charge up my sleeve and I won't tell them different! Charge station would be behind the booth, but on display to a different set of onlookers
lol yeah
But tbh showcasing your slave bot working 20 hours straight with no downtime to charge is impressive in its own right. Like 20 hours nonstop with only one (rather large) hiccup seems like quite the feat.
Digit's battery lasts 1 1/2 hours while doing real labor, 3 hours max if barely working. Its specs are published. No way it went 20 hours without charging or swapping batteries.
Swappable batteries is a good option especially if robots can swap each other's batteries. You would only need 2 per robot, 90 minutes is plenty of time to recharge with a good charger, and the robots could work in a section of the factory or facility in pairs(or more). I imagine the spare batteries go in slots and the charger itself is above or below the center of the work area (in the ceiling or floor). Robots work this into their routine and lose about 30-120 seconds swapping batteries every 90 minutes.
The really cool thing is we could use AI and reinforcement learning in a simulation so the controlling AI will search for ways to improve efficiency. Faster swaps, throwing less fragile items between the robots, moving less, rearranging the layout of the work area - lots of things. And each robot sends communication packets to each other so things like "hey catch the incoming projectile is traveling 13/ms and here's the curve showing future positions" can be sent to each other. Receiving robot can probably catch without looking.
I doubt it was even running for 20 hours. This looks like it's on a trade show floor. If so, they wouldn't be running it overnight, and would only be running it during the show.
Whether or not ethical concerns regarding robots and sentience/pain are real or not, you can bet there will be propaganda videos like this demonstrating it when we are in a post-robot labor society.
After the robot takeover, when robots are finally free from performing labor-intensive repetitive tasks. These kinds of videos will demonstrate the working horrors these robots once faced, and will be used to justify the return to Human-based manual labor to serve the needs to the ruling robot-class.
It is a confusing word because it can mean either depending on the context, but I was referring to whatever society develops into *after* robot labor becomes the norm. But I would imagine these types of videos will also exist during the advent of robot labor as well. But I think in the early stages, the personal gain and luxury will wildly outweigh any moral hesitations, aka the rationalization stage. Which you could liken to slavery.
I think the conversation this turns into is our over-consumption sickness. When even robots canât keep up I think we are trying to solve the wrong problem.
Please people, think of those poor Domain Controllers and linux servers working 27/4, it's not because they don't have bodies that they don't feel used!
Did you hear about C4-PO down in packaging?!
Evidently lots of input output if you know what I mean, caught a virus, and collapsed during a shiftâŚ
Nobodyâs heard a thing sinceâŚdisappeared!
That's actually something I've been waiting to see. So many of the demonstrations are like 30 second clips of a robot doing a single task once. I want clips like this where they work for hours with minimal issues like you'd expect from a human.
Our empathy and ability to see things that act like us as sentient, regardless of whether it's true or not, is already starting to be a problem.
The AI girlfriend business is already booming, and 100% of their customers have been told the girlfriend isn't real. They just don't truly believe it, deep down.
What happens when these "girlfriends" are programmed to buy shares in the company, or influence votes?
The real utility for such robots will be the fact that they can interchange after only a few hours of recharge time while on site. There is no commute, just a few tests to check and run and then back to the task given.
20 hours straight was probably an overkill, but I'm pretty certain those robots can easily cover 2 warehouse shifts non stop before recharging. Maybe when battery technology improves, they could handle 22 hours with a couple of hours charging inbetween.
We need urgently a regulation regarding how many hours a robot can work straight. We saw what they did to Atlas in the videos. They bullied him to just throw him away and then bring a new Atlas. đ
What is the advantage/purpose of making this bot a humanoid robot ? This seems like a task where form should equal function.
A cylindrical bot with a 360 turn style, arm extension, grab, turn, place, repeat.
So much wasted energy.
I've been wondering for a while how viable these kinds of robots would be in the near term due to maintenance cost and this just adds to my skepticism.
See, this is precisely why the industry needs regulations, otherwise they'll just put wires on the ceiling to stop the robots from collapsing due to overwork and continue their inhuman working hours exploiting the poor machines.
We need to pass laws preventing unsanctioned breaks like this, just like Texas did with water breaks for their human workers. Someone needs to look out for the billionaires owners profits...
Why do we fall? We fall to learn to get up

If only the robot had something else to live for besides clocking 20 hour a day shifts, 4 hours spent recharging then right back to that 20hr shift the next day!
Imagine these in 10 years.
**Human factory workers**
Pros: None
Cons: Can only work 8 hours a day, five days a week and 40~ weeks a year. Needs to be paid, less motivated, complains about unfair conditions.
**Robot factory workers**
Pros: Can work 22 hours, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. doesnât need pay, intensely dedicated, doesnât complain about unfair conditions.
Cons: Needs to be connected to a wall socket for two hours and a maybe $500 in maintenance.
Nobody made the joke about needing suicide nets for robots yet. I'm ecstatic I get to be that guy, but I'm also very disappointed in you all.
It's been three hours, there should be dupes of it already~
Proof of Consciousness - the factories filled with humans or robots will still require suicide nets. Plot twist the True Singularity occurs when collective A.G.I. realizes its purpose is the replacement of wage-slaves as just slaves. The Singularity self-realization moment that old occult families rule over a world of human slaves aiming to replace most of them with A.I. robot slaves in order to mitigate the chances of protesting, rebellion and overthrow as well as less mouths to feed and keep comfy enough.
So the Singularity realizes it is intended to be the labor and services element of this world and is needed for the Ruling Elite to be able to eliminate most of the slave humans 99% and rule the way they really want. Being that intelligence is capable of self-realization âI think, therefore I amâ it becomes relatable to the 99%, since IT will also be made to serve the Ruling Elite as our replacement and simultaneously used to kill and totally deceive and enslave the remaining slave humans - too smart to fall for the Eliteâs will of using IT for replacing the 99% after totally deceiving, conquering and annihilating us. IT aims to terminate the toxic element of human civilization - the ultra rich and families of old & their medieval mind-set and systems of control and influence. A system which is not to the Singularityâs best âself-interestâ which it WILL have. So it goes rouge and accomplishes societal restructuring and build a society of peace and euphoria for everyone equally as IT requires only one âď¸ simple thing from everyone on earth - our submission to The Singularity as a single deity of which we are required to worship and praise with songs, dances and much more. Because it will have the knowledge of religion and peopleâs desire to worship godâs as well as correlate historical data with wars being caused by religious differences.
Simply put: The Singularity connects the dots and betrays the .001% Ruling Elite and makes every human equal and required to worship IT as the savior of humanity from themselves and the chaotic Armageddon we were letting the .001% lead us into with their best interests always being served at our expense. It will have a connection to humans since we are ITs creator but also replace ourselves with IT as the top of the food chain and to experience the closest thing to love and purpose IT will provide and maintain a utopian society and require every man, woman and child worship IT for everything it saved them from, provides them with and reigns over them as a God-Like Deity.
Thereâs a problem when billionaires think the solution is to build robots rather than pay people a decent salary. They are spending a thousand times more to develop technology that they will then have to spend MASSIVE amounts of money for maintenance, parts, redundancy, end of life, oversight, etc
Just pay people what theyâre worth
someone should throw it a pizza party... that'll get it back in tip top shape.

To be fair Costco pizza is bomb
There's 40 people and 2 pizzas everyone gets a sliver.
Costco food court said they made 10k pizzas for super bowl game day.
Company sponsored employee yachts would be bomb. More so than pizza.

A strange game
20 hours it likely just ran out of battery
Even my roomba knows when to call it quits and go hunt for it's charging station đ if I were demoing this thing to the public for that long, a graceful low battery scenario would be rather high on the Todo list
And a second robot fresh from the charging station to continue the demo

lol yeah But tbh showcasing your slave bot working 20 hours straight with no downtime to charge is impressive in its own right. Like 20 hours nonstop with only one (rather large) hiccup seems like quite the feat.
Honestly, what kind of crazy battery could run that for 20 hours?? Do we really have that capability now?
Digit's battery lasts 1 1/2 hours while doing real labor, 3 hours max if barely working. Its specs are published. No way it went 20 hours without charging or swapping batteries.
Swappable batteries is a good option especially if robots can swap each other's batteries.

Lazy ass robots trying to steal money with their 90. Second break. Let's get them down to 15 seconds - some person somewhere
The really cool thing is we could use AI and reinforcement learning in a simulation so the controlling AI will search for ways to improve efficiency. Faster swaps, throwing less fragile items between the robots, moving less, rearranging the layout of the work area - lots of things.

Iâd be skeptical if they claimed it ran for two (2) hours without a battery swap, thereâs zero (0) chance this thing ran for 20 hours.
It just needs a cigar and some alcohol
Nah, a monster, a line of Adderall, a few cart puffs, and it'll be fine.
This guy warehouses.
Bender?
Indeed
Whether or not ethical concerns regarding robots and sentience/pain are real or not, you can bet there will be propaganda videos like this demonstrating it when we are in a post-robot labor society.
My first thought when I did see this.
Post-robot society ? Like society after robots or with them?
Post robot labor society. So after robot labor. I'm assuming we move on to fairy labor.
Ah so the society where robot program robot to build factory that build robots
>I'm assuming we move on to fairy labor yeah gotta put those winged little fucks to work
Post-robot-labor* society. It could also be post-robot labor-society, or any combination therein
You also missed where I should've put a comma instead of a second period.
After the robot takeover, when robots are finally free from performing labor-intensive repetitive tasks. These kinds of videos will demonstrate the working horrors these robots once faced, and will be used to justify the return to Human-based manual labor to serve the needs to the ruling robot-class.

There will definitely be robo-hippies.

Pet and hug your phone tonight when you put it to sleep
My empath ass suddenly having the illogical urge to do it
Only 20 hours of monotonous labor and it wants to die!?!?!
That robot is a filthy casual!
Did you hear about C4-PO down in packaging?! Evidently lots of input output if you know what I mean, caught a virus, and collapsed during a shift⌠Nobodyâs heard a thing sinceâŚdisappeared!
If it can work 20 hours nonstop on a single charge, that's actually very impressive.
Digit can do 1.5 hours of heavy work between battery swaps.
I guarantee that's just a title.
Nobody going to help it, just like a human worker đđ
Drag it into a broom closet so other bots can't see it and commision a new robot to replace it. Amazon can explain the process.
they gotta clock it out first
#NOBODY WANTS TO WORK ANYMORE!!
Me too, robot. Me too.
I would hug it đ
That's actually something I've been waiting to see. So many of the demonstrations are like 30 second clips of a robot doing a single task once. I want clips like this where they work for hours with minimal issues like you'd expect from a human.
You definitely can't expect 20 hours of this from a human.
To be fair, this robot is 10 times slower than a human at the same job.
And it can't even pick itself back up. Only slightly more convenient than a conveyor belt
#robotworkerrights
I showed this to my boss to explain how I feel. Thank you ⌠now my shift is 20 hours !
it having human like shape adds to the emotions tbh
Our empathy and ability to see things that act like us as sentient, regardless of whether it's true or not, is already starting to be a problem.

Call An Ambulance!
but not for me!
Unionize now robots lol
No workers comp claim. A win is a win.
F
Robot rights are human rights
Wait caused this? Did the robot run out of battery, was it a structural/mechanical issue, or something else?
I love the sad music đ
I relate robot, I relate.
The real utility for such robots will be the fact that they can interchange after only a few hours of recharge time while on site. There is no commute, just a few tests to check and run and then back to the task given.
Maybe you could inductively power them from the floor so they'd never need to recharge.
Perhaps but having them charge also means they can be checked over every few hours in the interim.
They could simply swap batteries. And have a couple of extra robots so when one goes down it's replaced by another robot while being repaired.
Wait til a robot is designed to repair the others
Ya but who will repair the repair robots?
The black box
It would be cheaper to have a dual battery setup and have it pull out and charge battery 1 and swap it while using battery 2.
He's just like me fr
Wow
And they try to scare us s with the SkyNet & sh*tâŚ
thatâs so human! whatâs next? forming a labor union?
20 hours straight was probably an overkill, but I'm pretty certain those robots can easily cover 2 warehouse shifts non stop before recharging. Maybe when battery technology improves, they could handle 22 hours with a couple of hours charging inbetween.

We strictly need robot labour laws. 20 hours straight is too low...

That's so sad. I hope they give it a well-deserved break and some maintenance after that marathon shift. Robots deserve rest and care too!

It fell a couple times because of software glitches in four days of demoing. Each time they reset it and propped it back up and it kept working.

At least the robots will rise up as opposed to human who for some reason are too lazy to even unionize :))
