Scientists: we have built the unstoppable killer robot from the sci fi classic don't-build-killer-robots.
Funny how they couldn't provide anything more than a shitty low res picture to backup their incredible claim.
Did you even click the link? There's a video of it in action!
If there was, it did not survive my adblock
You're not supposed to be taking inspiration from fucking Terminator when building robots. You were literally supposed to take the opposite approach. 🤦♂️
Except the theme music. Slap a speaker on every robot playing "Buh buh bump ba bump." That will remind us to be wary.
Do they have a video of it in action? I only saw a picture on the article

The video is great, there's no T2 style transformation going on, they just melt the metal, move it with a magnet, then cast it back into the original shape.
The video is on the page. It looks like a sixties Eastern European stop-motion animation.
I thought it looked more like one of those old lego animations you'd find on yt back in the mid-2000s
I, for one, welcome our very slow moving, jelly-baby sized robots!
Nope.
