Humanoid robot springs to life in 'dystopian' viral video: 'Straight out of science fiction'
Briefly

The Protoclone, a groundbreaking humanoid robot by Clone Robotics, has generated a viral sensation with its realistic movements, eliciting widespread concern among viewers. While the company claims the robot can perform a range of human-like tasks, including cleaning and meal preparation, many critics reacted negatively, expressing feelings of dystopia and unease at the prospect of such advanced technology. The robot's resemblance to a human, incorporating bones, muscles, and a 'Telekinesis training platform,' raises significant ethical questions about the future of human-robot interactions and the implications of such technologies in society.
"While every normal person looks at dystopian sci-fi films as cautionary tales, nerds see them as instruction manuals," scoffed one critic.
"Creepy. As. F-k," declared another user. "Why is the human race hellbent on self-destruction?"
The bot, which will be available for preorder this year, memorizes the layout of your home and kitchen inventory, washes dishes and clothes, makes sandwiches and pours drinks.
