The following report is by Trends Journal:
The company had envisioned its new Atlas as a point “person” in search-and-rescue operations: it can lift weights most humans can’t and also can twist and bend in inhuman ways, turning its knees backward and rotating its head and torso independently in complete circles.
Now, however, it sees Atlas as doing drudge work in warehouses and factories, toting oddly shaped, clumsy, and heavy loads from hither to yon.
Boston Dynamics has built “the power of an elite athlete into this tiny package,” it boasted in a press statement, as well as reinforcement learning, computer vision, and other necessities.
The company has paired Atlas with its Orbit software, which can manage a fleet of Atlas robots working alongside humans. The software makes use of machine learning and brings “impactful AI to market immediately,” it added.
Boston Dynamics is owned by Hyundai Motor Corp. and will test Atlas in Hyundai factories and a few other select locations to tweak its performance before putting the robot on the market.
Meanwhile, the company is working on an expanded set of grippers and other options for Atlas.
Amazon, BMW, and other companies that make and move things also are putting money into Atlas-like robots.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
The WinePress has a growing list of reports of many other companies around the world doing similarly. Everything is going robotic and AI, everything is going sterile and automated. So, if you thought the mass-layoffs and broken economy is bad now, just wait as more and more get laid-off by because of robots and AI.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Menial work my arse! Those robots are SOLELY being built to control humans. Terminator is almost here as is I-Robot
First hint of shift like this is an old movie called The Forbin Project. its about AI computers that control all the nukes, that you cannot disconnect from the power grid or turn off the power, that connects with similar systems in other nuke armed countries and they all work together. They have voices and robotic eyes and by the end of the flick, the humans were conquered by the machines they built. Its almost here……clock is ticking
FOLLOW UP. THE FORBIN PROJECT HAS A FIRST NAME I NEGLECTED TO ADD:
FULL NAME: “COLOSSUS THE FORBIN PROJECT” COLOSSUS IS THE NAME OF THE AI COMPUTER SYSTEM
THE FLICK IS HARD TO FIND. WONDER WHY?
COLOSSUS THE FORBIN PROJECT HAS BEEN DELETED FROM ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS

THERE IS ALSO A BOOK NAMED “COLOSSUS” BY D.F. JONES. They don’t want you to see it. strange, don’t you think?

I’m not saying that AI won’t be part of the antichrist set-up & idol, but I don’t think all this ‘labor-saving’ stuff is going to fly much further. I believe that thing is going to collapse under its own weight.
–
Overpriced tech adding to labor costs & mechanization which a grain of sand in the wrong place or a solar flare can put out of commission in a moment: none of it is foolproof & those in the high end of tech & engineering are so cut off from reality that they can neither foresee real world challenges & shortcomings, nor trouble shoot & repair when that real world stuff intervenes.
–
Look how they have to import cheap & willing laborers in order to even pretend the thing works. It’s top-heavy & self-defeating as men forget God, and if you remove high-paying, unrealistic incentives: then quality suffers even more. They’re crashing the ‘Phoenix’, but what’s going to arise from the ashes ain’t what they’re expecting, & escaping to the stars isn’t an option either: for the Lord Jesus Christ & Creator reigns & judges over that, as well: IF they can even achieve the attempt.
–
I am not ‘flat earth’ & do not believe that the Bible supports their cosmological claims at all, but I DO concede that we really don’t know how much of an illusion NASA & space races really are, just like the cold wars. They’re a great way to transfer wealth, to generate money for those higher up & deeper in, & great excuses for advancing devilish ‘technology’ & science falsely so-called.
–
Also great antichrist ‘hero’ idol makers. But read Obadiah closely.
–
I’m afraid that the end is more likely to be human chattel & slavery under despotic, devil-possessed elites where it began& with the hard right antichrist turn so clearly being set up for with Catholicism’s big ‘conservative’ & merging push, until the Lord puts a merciful end to it.
–
A certain level of tech & AI is required to give cover to & a plausible explanation for, the devils & familiar spirits who will be controlling it all as God gives it over to judgment.
–
The subtle & seductive spiritual lying signs & wonders, devil influences, are becoming more & more prevalent & common as people turn from truth & open themselves to them. The hard Catholic push is uniting & exploiting the pagan & new synthesizing godmen stories & myths to their ends: but the end of all that is still disorder & chaos, insanity & self-destruction, no matter how much ‘positive thinking’ humanist spin & devilish craft& influence is involved.
–
Spirit of huMANaTEEEEEEE hubris ….and all that. The devil hates mankind, the creaturely & fallen,
broken image of God as much as he does the Son of Man, the only begotten, the Son of God, & express image. Men are much less able to discern or to fight & resist him as they lag in faith at the sight of the giant Leviathan while despising, belittling or neglecting the words of God, the King James Bible, where grace, faith, strength, encouragement & spiritual nourishment & sight are to be found; & receiving & looking too much at corruptions & lies while exalting the works & abilities of men.
–
Read Joshua alongside all the New Testament KJB….fulfillment & yet to be fulfilled, instructions for righteous warfare. And remember that the very best that men & devils can create & counterfeit ….though mighty & fearful: is as nothing next to the creation of God & HIS flaming horses & chariots. We’re pilgrims & sojourners here, not dominionist builders who’ve rejected the chief cornerstone, & we look to Christ & his word which is where our hope is found.
