I love how people spend so long making robots that do things like dance only to film it and put it on YouTube and sit around saying “well, that was fun”.

Granted, it's entertaining; but part of me wonders why these clever robot-making people aren't making robots that do useful stuff – like build other robots, or other beneficial things that I can't think of right now.
