A startup called #Satyress #Robotics (
) has built a disaster response/ search and rescue #robot that's a 2 meter tall #centaurSo I've been lost in the woods for two weeks. I'm feverish from the untreated water I drank and delirious because I've eaten very little
Then I see fucking #Terminator #Baphomet walk up on me
I don't think I'm being rescued
I think I've passed to the other side and I'm going to technohell- I'm being punished for being grumpy about #AI
@benroyce you've gotta admit it would look pretty badass with flames behind it

@benroyce I would rather stay lost than be rescued by that demonic looking goofy ass... thing.

@benroyce Oh deer!

@benroyce The safety features are just so bizarre. It can be equipped with extra large horns so it cannot go through standard doors, and the emergency stop is shooting at it with a gun.
This has to be made by a diabolical alliance between techbros and hillbillies.
"...a diabolical alliance between techbros and hillbillies" is not an entirely incorrect description of at least one leg of our nuclear triad
-
The basic centaur shape makes sense. Four legs for stability combined with an upright posture for visibility. It's the facial features that are creepy.
@riggbeck the chainsaw is cute though (/s)

@benroyce But does it have a build-in light?

Moooi?
That's the company's name? Does it have a meaning?
Well Google is a real company
I'm not complaining!

@benroyce «help with rescue & search after disasters» is a well-known euphemism for «we just built this robot to be cool as fuck»
-
It's a joke right? Is it even real? Is it just faked images or it doesn't really work?:

Hmmm
It seems to be an earnest guy hard at work on a sincere garage project
You could say he gets points for, uh, diabolical marketing
But I tend to think it's an overexposed reveal of one dude's rather personal, honest, and quirky enthusiasms that went unintentionally viral
@benroyce
If this is three-halves, I guess four-halves is just an eight-legged goat that folds upwards in the middle. -

@dzwiedziu the eyes and the color scheme are the same. This is from a Star Wars movie right?

@benroyce Mooi is Dutch for beautiful. Not sure where the third 'o' comes in.
I'm just glad it's an expensive horse, otherwise I somehow would have to find space in my not quite big enough for a life-size horse home.

Yes, more details: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/congratulations-you-are-being-rescued@dzwiedziu i swear this has something to do with this garage inventor's strange set of enthusiasms. it's too similar in two design elements

Practicality has nothing to do with it. Buy 4! When visitor's ask, make a joke about the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Bask in their befuddlement
