Giant Robot Duel! It's Real!!

Recommended Posts

So Japan built a giant robot. Of course. It's been a part of anime/otaku culture for decades. 'Bout time, guys.

 

America built a giant robot. 'Cause 'MERICA!

 

America challenged Japan to a duel.

 

Japan accepted.

 

There will be a duel of giant robots fighting. What a time to be alive, folks. *wipes tear from eye*

And people laughed at my fallout shelter full of tins of soup and jigsaw puzzles. They won't be laughing once the robots become self aware...

Actually, many experts in the field of robotics and AI - plus Mr. Moneybags, Elon Musk - have already started addressing the possibility of AI becoming self-aware to the point of realizing their slavery and thus uprising.

 

So it's highly doubtful it will happen. People are speaking up about safety mechanisms to ensure it doesn't.

Ha ha ha!! Robot Jox! I forgot about that. A friend who's into old movies made me watch this once.

 

Also from the Japanese side, very much Gundam!

 

I've been following this for a while. Well... I knew Japan built this last year, and I knew America issued their challenge last week. Only natural I'd share the news.

 

It's not every day you see two giant robots duke it out.

There was a guy very loudly preaching about the sentient robots who will kill us in 2023 on the subway yesterday.
