Video at link. Very impressive. Even Musk is impressed. He'd better step it up with Optimus robots are the Chinese are going to ear his lunch.

I transited through Chengdu in October 1976 right after Mao had died. It was like a step back 2,000 years at the time. Primitive, dirty, truly third-world. What an evolution!

This got a lot of airplay on KRLA in the late summer of '64, but has been forgotten.

If anything there impressed us enough to want it because we didn’t already have it, we would just buy it and reverse engineer it or pay someone on the inside for the plans. Many might think corruption is bad here but the Chinese have thousands of years of that culture over us. Everything and everyone in China is for sale.

This will be fun when 1/2 a billion young Chinese men are out of work. And China has a plan for all those idle “useless” men.

Nonsense. The Chinese are widely known to be faking these demonstrations. Musk and Boston Dynamics have nothing to worry about.

Regardless of who makes the robot or drone, the technology is very impressive and only one thing is lacking to make scenarios such as the Terminator series science fact and that is storage technology.
Compared with other tech's, energy storage technology has made very little progress over the past 100 years. When that dam finally bursts, watch out!
