I KNOW!
That was such a compelling feeling...
The robot's *apparent* long-suffering patience added to its
anthropomorphic features in making me want to imagine it to have more
"humanity" than it possibly could.
Taking the hockey stick away from his tormentor or giving him a good
smackdown would seem to be an important part of "problem solving" in
this case.
One might suggest "intelligence is in the eyes of the beholder"?
It *does* feel as if OUR estimate of intelligence might involve how our
mirror neurons are activated.

I guess a measure of how life-like it is, is how much you are waiting for the
robot to haul off and smack the guy with the hockey stick. Some kind of mirror
neuron thing, maybe.

While Boston Dynamics has remarkable capabilities, or a Tesla driving itself, it still doesn’t compare to my dog chasing down a rabbit. Once they are matched, then it seems like that mapping has been modeled adequately.
