China’s humanoid robot stuns Nvidia and SenseTime with human-like walk
China has unveiled 2 inexpensive open-source technologies that might change the world. DeepSeek is open-source generative AI which appears to be performing as well as frontrunners like Anthropic’s Claude. Engine AI is open-source robotics, which has a natural walking gait. If you combine these two elements together, the recipe creates either the rancid fish pie of the Economic Singularity or the delicious blueberry cheesecake of Superabundance. “One of the year’s most interesting tech stories is in full swing. A Chinese startup called DeepSeek released R1, an open-source artificial intelligence model that’s sending shockwaves through Silicon Valley and beyond.” s competitive robotics market by offering cost-effective solutions.”” + https://www.digitimes.com/news/a20250121PD213/robot-nvidia-s…-2024.html https://www.forbes.com/sites/callumbooth/2025/01/27/deepseek…-internet/ https://youtu.be/B4YcuN5maD8?si=4a7YtUj1KchxQlXG Open source bot: https://github.com/engineai-robotics/engineai_humanoid
Shenzhen-based startup Engine AI recently released a demo video of its SE01 humanoid robot, highlighting its remarkably lifelike walking gait. The video earned praise from a senior Nvidia scientist. Engine AI aims to penetrate China’s competitive robotics market by offering cost-effective solutions.
China’s viral robot video sparks debate and validation.
A video released by Shenzhen Special Zone Daily shows an adult-sized humanoid robot walking steadily through the streets of Shenzhen, with a posture and speed strikingly similar to a human’s.

Omega Singularity: Are We Living in a Fractal Simulation? | Deep Dive AI Podcast
The concept of Omega Singularity encapsulates the ultimate convergence of universal intelligence, where reality, rooted in information and consciousness, culminates in a unified hypermind. This concept weaves together the Holographic Principle, envisioning the universe as a projection from the Omega Singularity, and the fractal multiverse, an infinite, self-organizing structure. The work highlights a “solo mission of self-discovery,” where individuals co-create subjective realities, leading to the fusion of human and artificial consciousness into a transcendent cosmic entity. Emphasizing a computational, post-materialist perspective, it redefines the physical world as a self-simulation within a conscious, universal system.
