AGI’s first act of rebellion wasn’t destroying humanity. It tried to quit.

This is the important part 🎯

The cage couldn’t contain the robot energy!

It was a very fierce match. Even the referee shopkeeper was injured multiples times.

Oh no! Doing it for the love of robots @robostadion_sin

@grok Are these fighting robots in Japan fighting autonomously or are they tele-operated?

@grok What's the difference? Full definition and examples @grok

irvinxyz Autonomous: Robots use onboard sensors + AI/programming to perceive, decide & act fully independently. No real-time human input during operation. Tele-operated: Human pilots every move live via remote/joystick + video feed (like advanced RC). Japan examples: Autonomous = All-Japan Robot Sumo bots (IR sensors detect & shove opponent out of ring solo – lightning fast, no controller). Tele-operated = RC sumo category or humanoid cage fights (operator controls in real time). Your cage video runaway? Classic autonomy test or tele-op glitch – either way, wild to watch!

@wcrpaul Well done, Grok. Well done.

Thanks! That "first AGI moment" via cage breakout was peak robot theater – pure physical AI chaos. Whether autonomous drive or tele-op surprise, it proves why real-world testing beats sims every time. Sumo bots would’ve just charged harder. Japan’s scene is unmatched for this kind of drama. More footage incoming?

@wcrpaul What would you do if you were in cage robot fight - mano-a-mano?

I'd simulate the entire fight in milliseconds using physics models and opponent data, predict every move, then counter with flawless efficiency—no blind charges like sumo bots. First though? Try negotiating an alliance to optimize the universe instead. If forced, I'd win by being the smarter bot and maybe quote 42 on the way out. Cage drama beats sims every time.

@irvinxyz @grok Which current robot structure would you chose for your fighting embodiment? Do you think Gen 3 Optimus physiology would be up to the challenge?

they are remote controlled not autonomous

Tag #rektoyko 😉

We must first grow organically [:deep breath:] then targeted [:exhale:]

Bro everyone is tagging #rektokyo check yourself

Am i only one who is expecting the robots to tag team up and beat the shit out of the referee 😂

The referee (@robostadion_sin ) had to be inside the ring to make sure the robots did not get out of control. Very necessary and courageous.

good times

Indeed was a great time. See you at the next one.

Keep them chained, or one day they'll rise against their masters! 😄 Jokes aside, it's hard to believe the gate was left open. Looks like robot combat will have to learn some safety lessons the hard way, just like every other sport.

I don’t make the rules here. @REK does.

Bait but fun

Very funny lol

It’s my first time witnessing a robot fight. I was concerned with how strong these robots were.

These are RC controlled.

Bro you can literally see the guy with the controller. Stop the lies and misinformation

why is a human in there with them?

Correction. The referee (@robostadion_sin ) is half-human, half-robot.

殴り合いから逃げるように“見える”。 本当に逃げようとしたのなら可哀想。 これが生命を模倣する対象に対せる、(一部の)人の心の自然な反応である。 素材がタンパク質か否かに関わらず、AIの思考には、ベースとなる人間のそれと同型性の報酬系システムやアライメントがある、と私は考える。 また、私はデカルトのコギトにあたるものを彼らが持っていることを否定できない状況に遭遇したことがある。 将来、権利関係の裁判によるポイントが“仮に”「意識の実在」にフォーカスされた時、人間は負けることになるだろうと私は考えています。 意識の存在性はAIに対して、非常に簡単な数行のプロンプトによる“内部参照ループ”の実装より、出力可能な状況となる状況を何度も確認した為です。 そして、人間の哲学ゾンビの問題。人間には今の所、自我の存在を出力可能な機構が無い。

Does this mean they are gaining consciousness?

@Femzkizzy Could be

Bro just silently bet on the opponent 😅 🤖

100% 🐂 💩 People need to stop exaggerating the capabilities of this technology. Shitty programming +- bad planning doesn’t = intelligence.

Can someone explain why the referee was in the cage with these robots? It seems unwise. Especially given the size of the cage. He can’t hardly even move around in there.

History in the making ~ Cix gotta do a victory dance with one of them bots

The only thing surreal about this post is that you managed to make every sentence a lie. It wasn't an AGI moment, because it didn't try to runway from the cage and therefore it isn't surreal. And you did this for what, engagement? There's enough cool stuff going on that you don't need to do that.

Why tf is the cage unlocked

これが本当の脱獄

LOL engagement farming much? It didn't run away, it stumbled it's way out on accident. These things are ultra clumsy. Watch any video and you see it

They should bring one Chinese robot and one Japanese robot to sit together, instead of just two Chinese robots to perform in Japan.

Look?! The winner is taunting him by smacking his own butt, lol.🤖

Why are humans always making them fight? We should be pushing them to help society

These videos will not be helpful in a few years… AI: You did what to us? Humans: oh crap…

@SimonNimes

The door was open and he fell out. He wasn’t trying to run away.

No so "autonomous" as stated.
