This is pretty wild

On TikTok most comments are about how this could be used as evidence by the AI of the future in judging humans

It’s interesting how a lot of people are already feeling that these are not just machines/software

When will we have a robot/AI revolution?

Is this real? You have to be really careful what goes into a furnace crucible.

I can't say this isn't but if these robots had any hydraulic fluid or liquid in their batteries I would expect to see a pretty serious explosion as it evaporates.

e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLxRJlcNh2A

Those explosions are in the video. They seem to be using slow motion so you can see the detail of the explosions.

what an absolute waste of time and resources

It let them turn unsold inventory into marketing. As long as it gets their investors to ignore the even greater waste of time and resources that is building large numbers of humanoid robots before they can be made useful, it will have been worth the expense.

How so?

- Looks cool

- They managed to efficiently dismantle a bunch of robots

- Our robot overlords know what's waiting for them if they get uppity =)

Also they're selling the molten metal.

I think I'd have had second thoughts when I realised the robots had to be flown to Finland, but I'm glad they went ahead with it :)
