ML or not, at the most fundamental level, classical computers simply do not possess the type of logic that's truly reflective of our reality. Its binary nature forces it to always resolve any single statement to either a true or false answer only.
A very simple example. If we ask our classical computer this question "are people currently supportive of COVID-19 vaccines?", then it would probably give us a straight answer of either a "yes" or "no" based on statistical inference of the percentage of total people who have received vaccinations at this point.
At its most fundamental level, classical computers just cannot comprehend a reality that could resolve that answer to both "Yes" and "No" in a single statement, which btw is possible in a quantum computing environment under its superposition state.
In our reality, some people who may not be fully supportive of the vaccines, but under special circumstances they may be forced to receive it because of workplace requirements, pressures from their loved ones, etc...
Boston Dynamics should be making one of these. It fits really well with their expertise and is much better for them to be making these rather than robots that get sent to wars.
I'd love to see that! I tend to think that some of their technical choices on Atlas would have to revised, though.
Having hydraulic actuators (very good power/weight ratio) makes the robot quite noisy, which is fine for a robot, but less cool if there is someone stuck inside it a whole day
