Nice that they portray it as a mode of transportation. I can’t help but see that thing outfitted with dual machine guns, traveling in packs- a futuristic soldier if you will… scary.

The first thing that came to my mind was a ride on car or a pony ride. You have a valid point, but I like mine better.

I don’t actually want one. But I want to take a one-time ride on one. Beyond that amusement, I don’t see a point.

If my wife has another husband out there, well, all I am going to say is, he better start paying some of the bills around here… 🤣

Check this out. The robots lost big time, but this is how railroading ink the US got started. There was a race between a horse drawn rail car and a steam powered rail engine (Tom Thumb). The horse won that short race but it showed that steam powered railroading had a future. That robots can move like this may lead to significant useful advances.
