Lol, I wish.
I just love what they're doing so much. I understand your point and your concerns about AI in general. Everyone understands what really AI is should be concerned lol including myself, despite my love for the AI.
I just don't think what Boston Dynamic doing is wrong. My overall understanding of this whole Boston Dynamic is that they try to convert the philosophy of natural motions and/or behaviors into a mechanic body. And as of why would they do that, there's a ton of reasons or events that humans would use them selectively based on the situations.
And, of course, they could be a killing machine. Which I believe no one could stop institutions or even individuals from developing AI/machines. For example, now you can 3D print guns, how cool and how dangerous is that?
But then again, I get your point on the monitoring part, and I agree with you. There should be regulations and transparency. I even appreciate transparency more than any political and law manipulations.
I'm not sure what are your views on AI in general, but believe me, my friend, AI is just another technology like cars, tv, radio, or even a knife. Yes! The knife was once an advanced technology! It was used for gathering and hunting, but later we, humans, converted it into a killing machine. As this may sound off topic, I really find it a lot deeper than the kind of technology. It is not wrong to point out at something doesn't seem right but, at the same time I personally feel like we're always going in the wrong the direction, and in order to fix an issue, we really need to get to the roots. Why in the first place do we need a killing machine? Because we are filthy, bloody, disgusting creatures? I don't know, that's just how I view the world :D
