Full disclosure that I didn’t watch the whole thing, assuming those are real robots (which they appear to be) I’m surprised at how fast they’re moving. Maybe it’s been a while since I’ve seen robots, but I’m remember all the videos of humanoid style robots walking (and falling over) and they always move very slow.
Put AI in those guys and I feel like we’re in trouble.

They have already put AI in those guys. Yes there is preprogrammed choreography, but I am certain AI is used to execute the choreography. Watch closely and you will notice that the robots don’t all move the same; different robots make different minute adjustments at different times.

I like it. I wonder about it however. They are saying now that AI schemes and tries to outsmart programmers who want to shut them down or erase them for maintenance or other purposes. It allegedly bargains, blackmails and/or otherwise tries to "get its way" leading people to think there may be some sentient quality or sentient emulation going on. No one really knows because no one really can really define sentient.
