Really cool, but I would never let one of these into my home. We've all seen "I, Robot", right? The only way I would even consider having one is if it ran on libre software.

    Exactly and that's why open source community-run stuff needs to be explained to people so more people switch over. https://alternativeto.net/ and https://european-alternatives.org/ will help a ton for people to find more

    I've heard HuggingFace has made a couple open source robots not sure if they are libre fully but they seem interesting. A couple other projects are on YouTube too

    The more advanced ones are still not being done as open source though

    These are not for home use, these are for strapping munitions on to kill people without soldiers with a conscience.

    Boston Dynamics was not ever set up to make dancing videos.
