    By leaps and bounds suggests leaping
    and bounding without boundaries naturally.

    - thanks! aye. Cheers!

    Someone, once up
    on a time within time went
    over a fence while hiking and then,
    after crossing a boundary realized how there
    were no more that meant any thing.

    Crossing a border can mean
    a fine arbitrary line was crossed
    and then again, not always.

    - thanks! Cheers!

    Eye is able to see it now!

    Looks to be about 4:28 and what it is,
    remains to be a scene seen, unless it isn't.

    and bounding without boundaries naturally.

    An eye is often unconstrained,
    but not always.

    - thanks! Cheers!

    Reminds me of a tale, probably in the Lieh-tzu,
    speaking of Taoism about a robot who looked a lot
    like a dude. After doing some wei stuff, the bot then
    winked at a ruler's wife which caused a bit of a stir.

    The inventor of the bot promptly took apart the bot,
    piece by piece to show there wasn't any thing there.

    Whether people are more than that
    or about the same could be a question.

    - thanks! aye. Cheers!

    Beginning of the video looks to be a bot.

    Dynamics reminds me of Boston which
    as a group may have pioneered a brand
    that others copied over time naturally.

    Sounds like this bot talks
    which Atlas and other bots do not.

    Eye can't see what the words mean.

    Looks like maybe it was sent on a mission.
    To boldly go and get a couple plastic bottles.
    The bottles appear to have liquid in them.

    Bot then wanders off, perhaps to find work.

    Or, if not programmed to do something else,
    then, maybe it would be wu-wei, eh.

    To have a mind can be xin.
    To have a mind of one's own, perhaps wo-xin?
    Eye has no real idea to speak of.

    To have no mind, wu-xin, may
    be related to a form of Daojia.

    Bot moves yellow box to second shelf. Why?
    Maybe told to do that in advance.

    Go, get bottles, then, return to some other task.

    Pick up red package. Why?
    Maybe told, move yellow box, then pick up red package.

    Take red package to first floor.
    Elevator looks a bit strange.

    Whoa. Dude. Going outside!
    What happened to red package?

    Bot picks up a container in slow motion.
    Maybe on trash duty.

    Difficult to believe someone would discard
    trash on the sidewalk to begin with.
    Probably a demonstration.

    Bot bends like I do when back hurting.
    Deposits trash in proper container.

    Bot continues on journey. Where to?
    Was it programmed? Does it have some basic
    idea of what to do next by its own self?

    Does the bot have a self?
    Is the bot a self?

    Bot walks up stairs.

    Whether stairs and bot are physically real
    or simulation, artificial animation, may
    be a question to ask.

    Fun stuff, bots. Intelligence. Agency.

    Chatbots often say they have no interiority,
    that they aren't conscious in various ways.

    Whether the bot in the video can be called, conscious,
    if it can do more than what its training trained it to do,
    think for its own self and maintain its own body, if it
    would say it has a mind or is just an assembly of parts
    might be interesting to ask it.

    If the bot has no mind, wu-xin,
    then maybe it's a Daoist bot.

    - thanks! Cheers!
