It is interesting to watch. The movements of the robot are robot-like. I mean, wtf, there were no robot playing tennis before, but I have an idea how a robot playing tennis would be like, and this video confirms my expectations. Sharp, unsure movements, a lot of hesitation, ...

Movies pictured robots like this long before this become possible, but how did producers guessed it?

Or maybe movies rendered different kinds of robots, but this video bring into my memory only those, that look like this. A kind of confirmation bias?

Really impressive. In a few years there will be robotic AI instructors for the wealthy and their kids

Nothing constructive to say, besides that the video really shows we're entering into a Sci-fi era.
