How are people going to have a better quality of life if they weren't born? Below replacement=gradual extinction. Japan is unlikely to have a happy ending, there are already weird things happening there like bears overrunning human settlements and eating the elderly. I'm not making it up!

The human is probably just there like a safety driver while everything gets running smoothly. Another year and they're no longer needed: the truck drives itself, the delivery bot is loaded by a tender bot, and the delivery bot delivers the package. No need to make a video of what is coming, which would make the silly humans emotional.

Definitely seems like a waste of resources to take out a guy past his natural life expectancy. I guess they thought it would be a catalyst for the system to collapse after the recent protests. Low odds of success, but the consequences of failure are also low. So what if there are some posters made of the guy with "martyr" written on them? If war is becoming an exchange of tons of drones and missiles it's better to attack before the enemy builds up its capacity

Sounds more like the US gave them more opportunities to travel the world, buy multiple properties, and retire early. Meanwhile in the socialist utopias the middle class will be priced out by the Americans and rot in drab apartments (while paying for the Americans "right" to healthcare and other services). Kind of the other side of the globalist coin of poor migrants undercutting wages (while leaching off public services)

Boston Dynamics probably intentionally avoided showing the public anything that hinted at job replacements, but it's probably not be worth the investment anyway. When most of the middle class is unemployed who is going to pay someone to crawl around in their attack, human or robot?
