Mini Cheetah Robots Could Be Elon Musk's Worst Artificial Intelligence Nightmare

MIT's Mini Cheetah robot is capable of running, walking, jumping and turning. How many times can I say it--over and over again, until it becomes like mental nails against a mental chalkboard? We all know the quote from Elon Musk that says something to the effect that "artificial intelligence (AI) is far more dangerous than nukes." The company has been making robots since 1992, and its astute credo is: "Changing your idea of what robots can do." One of those ideas is to have a robot do parkour, jumping over logs and leaping steps without breaking pace.
