I admit it walks like a drunk, but the progress is remarkable.

There's also videos showing it catching a tossed ball one-handed.

I watched a new movie, "Subservience" with Meghan Fox on Netflix over the weekend.  Scared the you know what out of me.  Was even scarier than "The Terminator".

And one of the latest versions of AI has shown self-preservation responses....

 Excellent! Do you have a link? I'm been complaining about the lack of volition so far. When the AI will be able to block someone from shutting off the computer, then I think we're getting somewhere! ;)

"It sounds like OpenAI's latest AI is showing signs of a drive for self-preservation.
In recent third-party tests of the company's o1 large language model, the AI resisted evaluators' efforts to try to shut it down through an oversight protocol, according to a new report published by red teaming organization Apollo Research.
"When o1 was led to believe that it would be shut down when acting on its goal and that its actions were monitored, it attempted to deactivate this 'oversight mechanism' [five percent] of the time," OpenAI summarized in its latest system card report, citing Apollo's evaluation.
Even more strikingly, o1 lashed out when it realized that it might be replaced with a more obedient model. In two percent of cases — a slim but meaningful proportion in software used by millions of people — the AI responded by attempting to copy itself to overwrite the new model, a process known as self-exfiltration."
