The robot dog in the main picture looks like go2 by unitree to me. Boston dynamics has said that they won't "weaponize" their robots, whatever that means. https://www.axios.com/2022/10/06/boston-dynamics-pledges-wea...
They said they wouldn't weaponize their "commercially available robots" they didn't exclude creating wholly military lines.
They won't have much option if state gets in the mix and pressure them in future to compete Chinese robots.
On searching for the mentioned model “bad one” it sounds like it’s provided by a British company “Brit alliance”, although these may be modified robots from another company.
No, they are remote-controlled Chinese unitree go2.
aha so the Chinese are now selling weapons to both sides.
The Unitree GO2 Pros are manufactured in China, but supplied by Brit Alliance, a UK company.
The DJI drones used by Ukraine en masse are developed and made in China too.
Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby, KG would approve.
The USofA supplied both sides during WWII prior to picking a side and joining the war.
