Robots doing things sci-fi movies warned us about

This video is from a company Google owns called Boston Dynamics. These scientists are building a robot that (if I've learned anything from sci-fi action movies) is the beginning of our undoing. Sure it may be doing simple tasks now, but that's how it always starts. Especially since they are testing its stability by pushing it down and slapping boxes away from it. But to the robot, that seems like torture. And that's where the hatred for humans begins. You heard it here first folks! The beginning of the end! Check it out:

Robot made a hole-in-one at TPC Sawgrass

Here's a video of a robot swinging a golf club and making a hole-in-one on No. 16 at TPC Sawgrass. So we want robots to be smarter than humans and now we are trying to make them better at sports? If I have learned anything from sci-fi movies, this can't end well! For now though, it's kind of cool to see. Check it out:

Tesla's can park in and exit your garage by themselves

Check out the newest update to one of the most popular electric cars on the market. Tesla Model S can not only park itself in and back itself out of your garage, it also opens and closes the garage door. The biggest game changer in this area? You don't even have to be in the car for this to happen! I guess developers, scientists, engineers and experts won't be happy until we have things fully automated. Then Sky Net can become self aware and plot to destroy all life on Earth. If these guys would just watch Terminator, I Robot or pretty much any science fiction movie dealing with robots, they'd see the warning signs! Stuff like this never works out in the long run! Becoming to reliant on technology only makes us more vulnerable when this technology decides to turn on us!

It's actually pretty cool, though. Check it out.
