Nothing. Read the article (it’s not long); these robots are from a different company.

a different company

Looks like some brand new start-up shell called Austin Rynamics. Any similarities are completely coincidental. Now stop bringing it up. I said good day, sir!

Boston dynamics absolutely sucks for licenses, you have to renew that shit every year for “a couple of grand”. No sane military would go for that deal - to spend money that’s worth what is basically a luxurious car is, to then have to spend more money to renew it, for a technology that isn’t all that useful or practical.

What makes you think they wouldnt make special deal with the military. They immediately allowed them to be used for police surveillance… The whole no military use thing was just for appearences from the start.
