Can they build a demo on earth? Maybe reshape a small hill-side into something fun or pretty with "Autonomous Restructuring". That would be fun to watch.

If you are restructuring an asteroid, containment isn’t much of a problem; if you want to do it to an isolated site on earth, it is more of a concern.


what is containment?


Containment is to stop the "turn everything into grey goo" robots from considering "Earth" to be part of "everything".


Oh lol we can handle a few sand-castle building robots. ChatGPT on the other hand...


Killdozer would like a word with you, sir.
