    What clickbait. Apparently any vaguely capable humanoid robot is a “straight-up Terminator”?

      They meant that in terms of infiltration they’re becoming more humanoid at an exponential level

        So far. Since Terminators are capable humanoid robots and the goal is to make capable humanoid robots each improvement is going to look more like a Terminator. And also like every other capable humanoid robot from other sci-fi as well, good bad or neutral.

        The only reason to leap to “OMG it’s a Terminator!” Is to bait the clicks.

          Well to be fair, they didn’t have to give it machine gun arms and red glowing eyes. But maybe that’s just me.

          It looks the a Terminator “under the hood”. I doubt anyone was trying to sell a “living tissue over metal endoskeleton” kinda headline.
