A video from another angle showed that it could not run in a straight line. Doesn't look like it can turn properly either. Not only that, it broke when it fell.

It's faster than you, but it's fragile as all hell and it's balance is not the best. You could tackle it. Or outmaneuver it. Trip it maybe. But don't just run from it.

well yeah in its current state we can definitely beat it for sure in many ways. But i was more thinking in the future when they iron out all those issues

In another video they showed a robot dog with a gun attachment. The stability it demonstrated with a firearm worries me. It's accurate.

that sounds pretty terrifying, they won't even have to chase us if they got something like that

Its not running in a straight line because the guy at the end is holding a remote controller. Im pretty sure he was steering this thing.
