I feel that every Boston Dynamics robot demonstration prompts the same sequence of reactions in the viewer:
1. Hey, look at this thing!
2. It's kinda nifty, even cute.
3. WHOA.
4. That was supremely creepy.
The video has also demonstrated that the SpotMini robot has better manners than most New Yorkers.

I think we've all seen this episode of Black Mirror.
"Metalhead"
That is nothing, I've known how to do that most of my life.
that is nothing, my dog learned how to do that with his neighbor buddy. The dog would come over and they would open the door and go out and play. The door wasn't locked and it had lever handles like in the video, but it was still pretty impressive. I am sure the first time it happened it was by chance but after that, if the door was not locked - they were outside playing (or worse inside) in seconds.
