@_techwithai: This small humanoid robot finished last at the Beijing robot half marathon. But it still stole the show. It completed the full 21 km (13.1 miles) course alongside human runners, moving step by step while crowds watched something that would have felt impossible just a few years ago. The speed isn’t there yet. The balance isn’t perfect. And the endurance still has limits. But that’s not really the point. What matters is that it finished at all. Moments like this show both sides of where robotics stands today. The progress is real, but so are the gaps. Seeing that play out in the real world makes it far more tangible than any lab demo. #ai #robotics #technology #futuretech #automation
