So... Is this how we get future Terminators?

I dub it the..... "Turd Bot"! This is both intriguing and terrifying at the same time. 😳

[BrickHaus]

Ehh, thats pretty cool honestly.. but Id say no, its AI thats the enemy. This needs AI to be dangerous. For all we know its human controlled from an HMI.

[XEMON]

Iron powder controlled with magnetic field, the idea been around for a while, cool to see they made it work.
They made a "robot" that's just a metal shard and control it inside blood vessel; he goal being to ne able to break down blood clots without surgery.

[Nish]

That's pretty cool... Until AI figures out how to weaponize it.

That's pretty cool... Until HUMAN figures out how to weaponize it.

GM has been using it in suspension for over a decade by now.

[XEMON]

Don't they call is "adaptive suspension"?
I believe most humvee are equipped with them ...

I think I remember hearing about this being in Cadillac's in the early '00's

Magneto-rheodynamic dampers... Corvettes, Suburbans, etc.

I always figured the uprising of vengeful "terminator" style robots/androids bent on eliminating humans would start when the sex robot industry started demanding gender pronouns..
