The humanoid robot industry is beginning to diverge into distinct paths, and few companies illustrate this as clearly as China’s EngineAI; within just a few days, the company unveiled two completely different applications for its T800 humanoid robot. In one, it is shown working inside a factory, while in the other, it is seen battling other robots in a ring in the United States.
On that occasion, EngineAI even released behind-the-scenes footage to demonstrate that the T800's movements were genuine; however, the editing of the new demonstration makes it difficult to determine the extent to which the robot can autonomously perform these tasks when facing unplanned situations—a contrast that becomes even more striking when considering events from just a few days earlier. On August 15, the T800 made its physical debut in the United States at the RCT, a humanoid robot combat event held in San Francisco; in that instance, the T800 units were operated by human pilots and pitted against one another in matches broadcast online.
