Prepare for the Inevitable
“We condemn the portrayal of our technology in any way that promotes violence, harm, or intimidation. Our mission is to create and deliver surprisingly capable robots that inspire, delight and positively impact society.” – Boston Dynamics

Meet Spot, the wonder dog from Boston Dynamics that can be purchased right now. If you follow the tech industry then maybe you have been reading about this guy for years — an incredible, if disconcerting, piece of robotics technology. There are plenty of videos and articles showcasing Spot’s talents and many uses, from warehousing to industrial, medical, and dangerous environments. Spot can be outfitted with an optional manipulator arm, and one should expect that future attachments are planned as well.
