Jesus christ, you need to touch grass, your online bubble is rotting your brain. You think you know anything about me based on a throwaway comment about some random technology?
Fact is, it’s not being used now for a reason. Such exoskeletons have been around for over 25 years, and have not come to fruition.
This whole article is literally about the range of areas this tech is currently being used in, commercially and domestically, and how fast the industry is growing.
Battery density is ultimately a hard problem. Physics and science has limits. Expecting those to be traversed just because you have beliefs or really like a technology. Is foolish.
Battery technology has been steadily improving for years and there’s plenty of legitimate paths of research for the forseeable future.
I’d love to see giant robots fight rather than boring old tanks and drones…
…we could make giant robots, and there’s been prototypes.
So why don’t I argue that MechWarriors are just around the corner? That we’re about to enter the age of MechWarriors? Leaving those cheap, simple, easy to make alternatives behind?
Why aren’t I more optimistic about giant complex robots that are hard to get in and out of, and can run out of power faster???
A throwaway comment you’re clearly an ardent believer in hence all the subsequent discussions rather than just accepting that the technology is unpopular, and walking away (I assume, without having to strap into a walker). Techno-optimism is your faith, so you are repeatly fighting for it (whilst telling others to touch grass).
These technologies remain unpopular for good reasons. They’re more complicated, harder to fix, and worse than current solutions… As I told you earlier, Capitalism isn’t going to choose more expensive and harder to maintain/use technology.
“Build a worse mouse trap” is not how the phrase goes.

You know what I really like: MechWarrior.
