ROBOTICS
Hyundai Buys Boston Dynamics for Nearly $1 Billion. Now What?

“I hope that Boston Dynamics is exceptional enough that the kinds of rules that generally apply to robotics companies (or companies in general) can be set aside, at least somewhat, but I also fear that what made Boston Dynamics great was the unambiguous funding for the kinds of essential ideas that eventually resulted in robots like Atlas and Spot. Can Hyundai continue giving Boston Dynamics the support and autonomy that they need to keep doing the kinds of things that have made them renowned? I certainly hope so.”
