Now, if you’re wondering why Boston Dynamics is saying “it’s time for our **hydraulic **Atlas robot to kick back and relax,” rather than just “our **Atlas **robot,” and if you’re also wondering why the video description ends with “take a look back at everything we’ve accomplished with the Atlas platform “to date,” well, I can’t help you. Some people might attempt to draw some inferences and conclusions from that very specific and deliberate language, but I would certainly not be one of them, because I’m well known for never speculating about anything.
