Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot learns to roller skate and pull off a 360 aerial spin

Boston Dynamics released a new video showing its Atlas humanoid robot roller skating dynamically — including a clean 360° aerial spin mid-routine — following earlier feats like dancing and backflips.
The piece also notes growing public backlash toward robots: robot models on the Milan Vogue World runway drew fierce fan criticism, with designer Juan Costa Paz arguing the tech wave is unstoppable and the question is how to use it, not whether to hate it.
