    Boston dynamics has been building and researching robots longer than Tesla has been a company. My money is on Boston dynamics...
  • @lout3921
    Let's just hope that light on its head doesn't turn red.
  • @totalmikie
    Teslabot hobbles along like it's got load in its pants. It can barely walk. Compare that to Atlas sprinting off camera.
  • @thepunisher3810
    Why even being tesla into the conversation they’re eons behind Boston dynamics
  • @chaosfire321
    Boston Dynamics casually flexing and showing why they're the frontrunners of humanoid robotics lol.
  • @MrDmadness
    Atlas - an actual ai robot Cyber bot - basically a mannequin with a motor or 2 that's remotely controlled by a human. Tesla bot is never not suspended by a cable
  • @mrcello7861
    The thing I don’t understand is that Tesla’s bot reminds me a lot of Honda’s Asimo… from 20 years ago. Boston Dynamics bot actually feels like a real step forward in robotics.
  • @skittzmusic
    It's an insult to the years of hard work, research and dedication by Boston Dynamics, to even mention Teslabots in the same sentence.
  • @nerrade
    Tesla bot looks like a toaster compared to the Boston Dynamics robot.
  • "dull dirty & dangerous" is a perfect band name... for a fully automated robot-trio.
  • @MrEffdot
    I think the biggest likely difference between the Boston Dynamics Atlas and Tesla Optimus is that one is an amazing feat of technology, and the other is yet another publicity stunt by Tesla.
  • @prismaticrain
    I love the part where the Boston Dynamics people said, “It's ULTRAKILLing time!”
  • @40KWill
    Boston Dynamics products is just years ahead of the Tesla products. Years and years ahead. Plus they don't need human actors in costumes.
  • There is absolutely no comparison between boston dynamics and tesla. Boston developed the tech and elon came in and stole it just like every company hes running into the ground. The reason tesla has been able to develop robotics so quickly is because they took it from boston dynamics!
  • @WestOfEarth
    personally, I like the aestetic of the older Atlas -- it has that retro future appeal
  • @PaperMario64
    if I were BD, I wouldn’t appreciate you elevating the Teslabot to the level of my advanced robotics.
  • @yoshyoka
    We habe Atlas moving like an athlete while the tesla bot dances like a granny without even being able to reposition its feet (would not surprise me if they were bolted to the floor). They are not competing in the same league
  • @mysmith7
    Boston Dynamics is worlds ahead. I can think of a thousand real world applications for use today. AI can be taught, we just have to teach them right.
  • @lorenipsum93
    By the looks of it, It's way more advanced that either of those other ones mentioned.
