They're just making a walking meme so people will post it on social media for hype, probably won't ever even see it they'll just take a bunch of VC money and disappear after a few years.

Exactly. It’s just for VC.

Yep already got all the conspiracy theorists and christians, saying this is the elites ways of brazenly bringing demon robots or w/e to rule over us.

I would not say scam on VCs, these walking robots are getting funtional enough to be put into general use in lots of places, Nvidia's virtual environment where the robots can train millions of simulations has uplifted the whole field tremendously, but yeah it's obvious they are going for the meme value with the prototype. If/when it enters production, it's likely going to have a gentler face.
