BBC新闻:北京赛事上中国机器人历史性打破博尔特百米世界纪录
A Chinese humanoid robot has run 100 metres in 9.39 seconds in a preliminary heat at the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beiing, surpassing the men's world record time held by Jamaican sprinting great Usain Bolt.
Tiangong Ultra, developed by the Beiing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, won its heat at the opening of the games' second edition. The robot overtook smartphone maker Honor's Lightning near the finish after falling behind early in the race. Lightning finished in 9.47 seconds, also faster than the 9.58-second record Bolt set at the 2009 World Athletics Championships in Berlin.
The results marked a remarkable improvement from last year's inaugural games, when Tiangong Ultra won the 100 metres in 21.50 seconds. Tiangong also won the world's first humanoid robot half-marathon, held in Beiing last year.
The 100 metres is among 51 events at the games, which include football, dancing and contests to complete industrial tasks.
China is promoting humanoid robots as a strategic emerging industry, with policymakers and companies betting that advances in AI and hardware will accelerate their use in manufacturing, logistics and consumer applications.
Investor enthusiasm for the sector was underscored recently when shares in Unitree, China's best-known humanoid robot maker, jumped more than five fold in its Shanghai trading debut, giving the company a market value of about $50 billion.
This year's games have drawn 2,056 robots from 666 teams across 16 countries and six continents, up from 280 teams at the inaugural event.
在北京举办的世界人形机器人运动会预赛中,一台中国人形机器人跑出9.39秒的百米成绩,超越了牙买加短跑名将尤塞恩·博尔特保持的男子百米世界纪录。
这台名为“天工Ultra”的机器人由北京人形机器人创新中心研发,在本届赛事开幕式的小组预赛中拿下小组第一。比赛初期它一度落后,临近终点时反超荣耀公司的“闪电”机器人。“闪电”最终成绩9.47秒,同样快于博尔特2009年柏林田径世锦赛创造的9.58秒人类百米世界纪录。
对比首届赛事,本届成绩实现巨大飞跃。去年首届比赛,天工Ultra的百米夺冠成绩为21.50秒。该机器人还拿下了去年在北京举办的全球首届人形机器人半程马拉松赛事冠军。
本次运动会一共设置51个竞赛项目,除百米赛跑外,还有足球、舞蹈以及工业实操任务比拼。
中国将人形机器人列为战略性新兴产业。政策制定者与各大企业都看好:人工智能和硬件技术的进步,会推动人形机器人更快落地制造业、物流以及消费场景。
中国人形机器人行业的投资热度近期十分突出。头部人形机器人企业宇树科技登陆上海资本市场,上市首日股价暴涨超5倍,公司市值约500亿美元。
本届大赛共有来自六大洲16个国家、666支队伍的2056台机器人参赛,而首届赛事仅有280支队伍参加。

add Vinegar and Ketchup and you're home free. Oh, and a Fanta orange to wash it down!
倒上醋,挤上番茄酱,直接搞定。哦,再来一瓶橘子味芬达解腻!

Congrats. I'm sure his friends and family are very proud.
恭喜。想必研发人员的家人朋友都会倍感骄傲。

But can they beat Bonnie Blue's record?!
那它们能打破邦妮·布鲁的纪录吗!
Arctic_Dude
Technically yes, but it might be challenging for whoever writes the software code
理论上可以,但对写程序的人来说难度不小。
ronald3836
@Arctic_Dude Just use machine learning. Is anyone volunteering to collect the training data?
直接用机器学习就行了。有人自愿来收集训练数据吗?

Hm…if only there were hundreds of movies and books as well as decades of discussion that could give us insight into what this could possibly lead to.
唉,要是有几百部电影、书籍,再加上几十年的讨论,能告诉我们这一切最终会走向何方就好了。

You really don’t need bipedal robots for that, a drone swarm is more than enough
要做到这点其实根本不用双足机器人,无人机集群就完全够用。

If history has taught us anything, it's that inventions for good as also inventions used for violence by another group of people. Gun poweder comes to mind.
历史告诉我们一件事:原本用于造福人类的发明,也会被另一拨人拿来施暴,火药就是典型例子。
JDSileo
I think many people underestimate how many other people saw movies like iRobot, AI, The Matrix, etc and said "I want that"
That is to say, it has been considered. the decision to proceed has been deliberately chosen. Welcome to the end and the begng!
很多人低估了一件事:不少人看完《我,机器人》《人工智能》《黑客帝国》这类电影之后,心里想着“我想要这种技术”。
也就是说,这些风险人们早就想到了,却依旧执意推进研发。旧时代落幕,新时代开启。
YoAbzi
People are surprised by what China is showcasing to the world but just imagine what sort of robots they are working on behind the scenes for military and warfare use
大家惊叹于中国公开展示的机器人,可以想象,他们背地里还在研发什么样的军用作战机器人。
InmateMonk
They're even smarter, they have electronic disrupters to shut off enemy robots and drones. The game metal gear solid 4 covered this and nano machines years ago
实际会更厉害,会配备电子干扰装置,直接瘫痪敌方机器人和无人机。游戏《合金装备4》很多年前就讲过这套技术,还有纳米机器。
cyf94
The pending order for new inventions used to be: military → industrial → commercial.
That was before the term "dual use technologies" was introduced to me.
过去新发明的落地顺序一般是:军用→工业用途→民用商用。
直到我了解到“军民两用技术”这个概念之后,才发现不完全是这样。
Jerry‑sf3vd
That's the first thing that would come to the western warmonger's mind. China has not been in war with anyone since 1979.
一上来就往军事上面联想,这是西方好战分子的本能。中国自1979年之后就没有和任何国家开战。
jcyf94
I am not aware that propensity or inclination to kill or maim is to be determined by race, ethnicity, culture or national states, but am aware of the ease of and distance to the "tools". That is before realising that they can be autonomous.
一个国家会不会发动杀戮伤害,并不由种族、民族、文化或者国籍决定,真正关键的是获取杀伤工具的难易程度,尤其当工具还可以自主运行的时候。

Chinese here. At what cost? At lower cost
我是中国人。代价是什么?成本变得更低。

I beat his record in a 92 Honda years ago no big deal.
我很多年前开一台92款本田车就打破了他的纪录,没什么了不起。

technically, you have a valid argument
从理论上讲,你说得也有道理。
danklankin3887
Prelude for the win!
这只是一个开端!
samyu4473
Which one are you more afraid of, chased by a honda or chased by a terminator? You got the answer
被本田车追,和被终结者机器人追,哪个更吓人?答案显而易见。
tedwang50
Cars compete with cars,not with humanoid robot or planes. Can your car faster than a jet plane?
汽车应该和汽车比,不该拿来跟人形机器人、飞机比。难道你的汽车跑得过喷气式飞机吗?
antoineroquentin2297
But can they pay taxes
那机器人会交税吗?
jkselama4698
They don't get paid, no rest or day off and they don't complain. Yet you the slave driver is not happy.
它们不用发工资,不用休息放假,还不会发牢骚。就这样,你这个压榨者还不满足。
kichigan1
Interesting. Slavery was abolished for two reasons: Employment for whites and taxes.
有意思。奴隶制被废除,有两个原因:保障白人就业,还有税收问题。
nelsonren1220
Just consider them as unpaid and unsleeped labor, so the factory could be much more profitable, and pay more tax to the government, more social benefits would then be able to supplied by the governments. Maybe one day humans are more than a sheer works, everyone could just focus on what he/she really likes.
可以把它们看作不用付工资、不用睡觉的劳动力。工厂利润会大幅提升,向政府缴纳更多税收,政府就有能力提供更多社会福利。或许未来人类不再只负责干活,每个人都能专心做自己真正热爱的事。

It toke a Robot to Beat Usain Bolt
居然要靠机器人,才能跑赢博尔特。
radbow
This is actually terrifying. The marching robot platoon is a look into the future when they will be carrying weapons.
想想挺可怕的。机器人方阵列队,已经能窥见未来,它们到时候会搭载武器。
ThePioneerOfTrueCentrismShow
I robot, films warned us and we are still making all the same mistakes they warned us about.
《我,机器人》这类电影早就发出警示,可我们依旧在重蹈电影预言的覆辙。
xoxb2
Well, I'm not, and I doubt you are. The tossers who rule us are allowing techno‑capitalists to do so. All the sci‑fi etc tends to revolve around evil drs and tota tarianism. But it's actually laissez‑faire politicians, and greedy businessmen who will bring us down.
我并不担心,估计你也一样。真正放任科技资本家肆意发展的,是那些掌权的蠢货。很多科幻作品总把危机归罪于独才者与体制。但真正会毁掉一切的,其实是放任不管的政客和贪婪的商人。
KingOfNaraka
Right. We should listen to Hollywood on how human progress should proceed because Hollywood knows all about the future.
说得对。人类该怎么发展,就该听好莱坞的,毕竟好莱坞通晓未来。
zhihaoao
Did you ever consider this issue when you invented guns and cannons? Your analogy is only in movies, but in history, your use of weapons for colonization and waging wars was a fact.
当初发明枪炮的时候,你们怎么没想过这些风险?你说的那些风险只存在电影里,历史上,用武器搞殖民、发动战争的恰恰是你们,这是事实。
liudizzle
I like how they bring the stretchers out
就等着看它们什么时候抬担架出场。
jumjack7769
I mean, sure Usain Bolt can run fast, but can he fold laundry? More importantly, will he?
博尔特跑得是快,但他会叠衣服吗?更关键的是,他愿意干吗?
vinzw5609
In another 10 years, you probably cannot tell the difference between a top spec humanoid robot and a real human.
I think it’s pretty scary to think about that.
再过十年,高端人形机器人几乎会和真人看不出差别。想到这点就觉得毛骨悚然。
LifeofWalk
I know people aren't taking this too seriously, but they aren't making robots for sports, they're making robots for war just like how drones are
我知道很多人没当回事,但研发机器人不是只为参加体育比赛,和无人机一样,它们最终会用于战争。
lonestargazer8541
That's... actually good. Consider the alternative: sending young humans, with families, dreams and aspirations, to war instead.
其实这未必是坏事。换个角度想:总好过把有家庭、有梦想的年轻人送上战场。
deadrose007
If you were on the front line in Ukraine, would you rather go out or send a robot?
如果你身处乌克兰前线,你愿意自己冲上去,还是派机器人上?
punkmoose3962
@deadrose007 Would you rather be arrested by robots or humans? Be judged at court by a human or a robot? I'd say killing each other with rocks is preferable to being phased out and domesticated by robots. At least we had to stare our depravity in the eye instead of outsourcing it and pretending it's not our problem/a problem for the machines to handle
那你愿意被机器人逮捕,还是被人逮捕?法庭上愿意接受人类审判,还是机器人审判?我觉得就算拿石头互相厮杀,也好过被机器人取代、被机器驯化。至少那时候,人类还能直面自身的恶,而不是把恶行甩给机器,假装问题和自己无关。

Therefore, do not foolishly provoke China.
所以,别傻乎乎地去挑衅中国。

Are they allowed to compete in women's sports though?
话说,这些机器人能去参加女子体育赛事吗?

Well isn't this just wholesomely terrifying
这事儿看着厉害,细想却让人后背发凉。

Finally. A sports event I actually want to watch. Go science.
终于有一项我真正想看的体育赛事了。科技加油。
unclescipio3136
Yeah, but Usain Bolt knows how to stop.
话虽如此,但博尔特知道该怎么停下来。
officialkz2878
Imagine a robot with consciousness kicking you for commiting a crime? Just hearing those clanking noise running towards you is a whole new level of fear
试想有了自主意识的机器人,因为你犯了错就过来抓捕你。光是听见金属哐当哐当朝你跑来的声音,就是一种全新的恐惧。

when you watch news about China in BBC, doesn't matter how thing's actually are, they always can find something negative to talk about
看BBC有关中国的新闻就能发现,不管事实是什么样,他们总能找出负面角度来报道。

Programmed to entertain us now
Programmed to kill us later
现在设定的程序是取悦人类,未来程序就会变成消灭人类。

Well, we would all have to carry an EMP with us to shut them down when they malfunction.
那以后我们都得随身带上电磁脉冲装置,机器人失控的时候就把它们废掉。

has nobody working on these things watched Terminator?
研发这些东西的人,都没看过《终结者》吗?

Terminator isn't a movie. It's a prediction.
《终结者》已经不只是电影,更像是预言。

Looks like Chinese robot technology is heads and shoulders above the rest of the world
看得出来,中国机器人技术远远领先全球其他国家。
