The T1000 is the ultimate in robotic evolution: Highly customizable in every way. The liquid metal construction allows this model mimic the outward appearance of anyone, and become the size of anything roughly the same size as a human body. The real advancement comes in the T1000’s ability to be liquid when shot by bullets, then to be solid when turning its hands into knives. We discuss this innovation, along with Dennin’s fascinating with Arnold Schwarzenegger’s career, a consolidation of robotic genius in Brussels, and Ben preempts my nano swarm analysis!
