The reviewer highlights a significant 30% increase in walking speed, now reaching 1.3 mph, and improved stability through enhanced foot placement, vestibular system upgrades, and refined motion planning. While acknowledging the impressive mobility improvements and the potential for factory integration, the review also addresses the substantial challenges ahead for commercialization in 2025. Key hurdles include developing true utility beyond basic movements, overcoming hardware complexities, scaling production with a dedicated engineering team, and addressing ethical concerns surrounding AI.
