I'm getting really tired of that metric.
Like, human performance has a very wide range and scope.
My car "exceeds human performance."
My toaster exceeds human performance for making toast.
Michael Phelps exceeds the human performance of myself in a pool.
I exceed the human performance of any baby.
This just tells me that the robot is more able at something than the worst human at that thing.
Exceeds the very limited parameter we used to define as “human performance.”
“Look, this robot’s arm can spin 360°! It exceeds human performance!”
Ok, can it get a glass out of the cabinet, put ice cubes in it, fill it with water and bring it to me?
I think you could have picked a more difficult metric, this is something i'm pretty sure the BD robots can actually do.
In a random home, then. A human would know what a refrigerator is, where the ice is (dispenser or freezer), check cabinets for cups/glasses, and operate the sink. The BD bots would likely have to have everything pre-mapped, RFID’d and/or programmed.
I exceed the average human at idiocy.
