I don't buy this thing at all though.

World’s first living robots can now reproduce, scientists say

Details about the robots, created using the heart and skin stem cells from the African clawed frog, were unveiled last year after experiments showed they could move and self-heal.

Why are we creating something that will want to kill us in a hundred years?

No idea lol but that's why we shouldn't play God for one,.. and for two, I'm going to be long gone from this earth in a hundred years anyways so why should it bother me?

We already play God so enjoy the ride.

It wasn't all that clear what they do. It only seems like stem cells replicating. That is not new. The NYPost has a tendency to overhype things.

They are not robots! They are biological organisms! The NYPost lied in their headlines and has everybody here in a tizzy. Read the article the post references.

Kinematic self-replication in reconfigurable organisms

Almost all organisms replicate by growing and then shedding offspring. Some molecules also replicate, but by moving rather than growing: They find and combine building blocks into self-copies. Here we show that clusters of cells, if freed from a developing organism, can similarly find and...

I was wondering about that ... don't they use robots in robot factories? ...

I don't think so. They don't need to be mass produced like cars. But they can dance.

I've seen that video before and it's pretty cool.

Andy the Android turned out to be a lousy partner for Bionic Betty. His sexual behavior was totally robotic.
