Reacting to robot footage
A clip shows abrupt robot motion and Berman discusses the potential safety risk. He remains interested in useful household robots.
The video opens with footage of a suspended humanoid robot moving abruptly while people are nearby. The short does not establish what caused the movement or whether anyone was injured.
I find the footage unsettling. Humanoid robots are already being tested in factories, and I expect them eventually to appear in homes, which makes safety around people important.
We are used to seeing measured robot movements, but here the arms flail and appear powerful enough to harm someone. The people nearby appear to be trying to manage the situation; their feelings and the precise cause cannot be established from this clip.
Despite the worrying footage, I still want a robot that can do my dishes. I ask viewers what they think about the tradeoff between the potential usefulness and safety of household robots.
