Here’s Humans on Channel 4 on Demand. Free to watch in UK with ads. Also available without ads via C4 sub and on the VOD purchase sites. I bought it on the Apple Store when first available. I haven’t watched S3 yet.

20% into this. I’m really enjoying it.
It’s also making me want to watch Channel 4’s Humans again. Well, most of it would be again. I didn’t watch Series 3 when it was broadcast. I got wind of what happened to one of the main synths via internet chatter. #Humans #Robots https://books.apple.com/gb/book/some-body-like-me/id6471727434
When we read the headline of this story, we thought it meant the robot could “run” — like sprinting or jogging. However, a robot that can change its own battery is, as @LiveScience says, “unsettling” and worth posting. Read about the 5-foot-3, 95-pound Walker S2 and watch video of its uniquely flexible shoulders in action:

Silent Running was one of my favorite #films when I was younger. I still like the little #robots! #SciFi
Researchers at the University of Leeds have developed an AI system that allows robot dogs to autonomously adapt their walking style to cope with unfamiliar terrain. https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/robot-dog-learn-animal-gait #Robots #Robotics
@randomized Folks, don’t need to freak out! The mushroom doesn’t know (yet) it has legs! It’s the legs that use the naturally designed sensors only!
Autonomous robotics startup Cartken, known for its four-wheeled robots resembling Guido from the movie “Cars” that deliver food in Tokyo, has pivoted in a new direction: industrials. “What we found is that actually there’s a real big need in industrial and onsite use cases,” said CEO Christian Bersch.

The Hybrid Species — When Technology Becomes Human, and Humans Become Technology
A fresh transmission from my Musing On Society and Technology newsletter:
We used to build machines to serve us.
Now we build them to complete us.
So… what happens when the line between us and them disappears?
This is the follow-up to my Robbie piece — where #Asimov made us wonder if trust could be earned by a robot that didn’t even speak.
Well, now the machines do speak. They pretend to understand us. And we pretend they do, too.
But here’s the twist: maybe we’re not just surrounded by machines — maybe we’re slowly becoming one. Or better yet: when carbon and silicon don’t just coexist, but converge… maybe something new is emerging.
A hybrid species.
Not science fiction — just evolution, with a bit of attitude.
No panic. No utopia either. Just me thinking out loud, wondering what’s coming — and whether we’re wise enough to carry the best of ourselves into whatever comes next.
No time to read? Let my AI companion TAPE3 read it to you — it’s got a voice and just enough sass to make it weirdly charming.
Newsletter link and audio version in the comments.
If you find these musings worth your time, share them with someone who likes to think sideways. And follow both my newsletter and podcast — there’s a lot more where this came from.
Cheers,

Started reading Some Body Like Me last night. I wanted to read something else before diving into the next book in the Teagan Frost “moving sh*t with their minds” book.
Some Body Like Me is another what’s it like to be an android story.
