Summary

The author enjoyed watching snippets of the World Humanoid Robot Games, finding the robot failures entertaining and comparing them to SpaceX rocket explosions, while noting China's openness to show failures and hoping for more coverage next year.

Did anybody else really enjoy watching the snippets we got to see of the World Humanoid Robot Games? Some of it was really funny, but all the catastrophes are the robot equivalent of Space X rockets exploding: learning by failing and being entertaining in the mean time. It's very interesting how China is confident enough to show the failures, when US robotic companies are afraid to show theirs. I hope that next year some network will buy the rights to show a lot more of it.
