REAL MADRID are reportedly preparing a move for Newcastle star Bruno Guimaraes.

The 26-year-old Brazilian midfielder moved to St. James’ Park for £35 million in January 2022 and has become one of Europe’s most sought-after players.

The former Lyon ace has scored 13 goals and assisted a further 13 in 96 appearances for the Magpies.

And we revealed earlier this month how Guimaraes is now attracting interest from a host of teams across the continent.

He is under contract with Newcastle until 2028, after signing an extension earlier this season.

However, that deal reportedly includes a £100 million release clause, at the star’s own insistence.

Now talkSPORT claims Eddie Howe and the Toon are “bracing for Real Madrid to ramp up interest this summer”.

They claim the LaLiga giants had him under surveillance during last week’s 2-0 FA Cup quarter-final defeat to Manchester City.

Guimaraes is also said to have a “burning desire” to play regularly in the Champions League.

He did achieve that on Tyneside before the theory group stage was abandoned this season, but Newcastle will need a miraculous turn of results to qualify for it again next season.

The Magpies are also looking at the prospect of having to offload a star to help them stay on the right side of the Premier League’s spending rules.

And any figure they receive near his release clause would result in a huge return on the Samba ace.

Newcastle are currently 10th in the Premier League and of all the cup competitions, something Guimaraes admitted left him “disappointed” when quizzed about the campaign this week.

Speaking ahead of Brazil’s match against England at Wembley, he said: “This season we have struggled.

“I think we have had a lot of problems with injuries and suspensions, but this is part of the process. When I signed for the club I knew this would happen.

“Things happened too quickly. During my two years at the club we reached a final. Unfortunately we didn’t win, but we got there after 20 years, which was huge for the club.”

When asked whether Newcastle had to sell to comply with PSR rules, Guimaraes said: “I don’t know. I’m not involved in that.

“We never know what will happen, but I am happy at the club. Of course I’m disappointed with our season, but I think we still have a chance to finish at least seventh in the Europa League or Conference League.

“But I can’t say much about the club staff. I don’t know what will happen in the future, but what I can say is that I am so grateful to Newcastle.”

Lisa Rinna e-mailde een beroemde e-mail ontslagbrief aan haar bazen bij The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in september 2022 en 18 maanden later bevestigde ze dat ze nog steeds geen plannen heeft om terug te keren naar de populaire realityshow Bravo.

‘Nee. Nooit. Nee, dat zou ik niet doen’, zei de 60-jarige actrice – die in acht seizoenen speelde – in een voorproefje van de vrijdag Jennifer Hudson-show.

‘Maar luister, ik ben dankbaar voor de ervaring. Ik denk dat ik er een betere acteur van ben geworden, omdat ik weer ga acteren.’

Daarop begon een toeschouwer te grinniken en Lisa (geboren Elizabeth) schoot terug: ‘Ik maak geen grapje! Je lacht, maar het is waar. Ik denk dat ik daardoor een betere acteur ben geworden door met die vrouwen te werken [and] die ervaring doormaken.’

Rinna is uitvoerend producent en schittert als cyberpestende moeder Madelyn naast haar eigen 25-jarige dochter Delilah Belle Hamlin in Greg Beemans dramathriller Mommy Meanest, die later dit jaar in première gaat op Lifetime.

‘Ik heb net een film gemaakt genaamd Mommy Meanest, waarvoor ik acht jaar heb getraind in die show. Dat heb ik zeker gedaan, en ik had veel om uit te halen’, merkte de viervoudig genomineerde voor een Daytime Emmy op.

‘Ik heb veel om uit te halen nadat ik acht jaar aan die show heb gewerkt. Weet je, verschillende psychologieën van verschillende vrouwen. Ik zou dat nooit zijn tegengekomen als ik die show niet had gedaan. Ik ben dankbaar voor die show. Ik ben daardoor de persoon die ik vandaag ben, maar ik zal nooit meer teruggaan. Heb het gedaan, gedaan, de film gezien.’

Lisa ook ‘zo opgewonden’ een gastrol als liefdesbelang voor George Lopez in het tweede seizoen van zijn sitcom Lopez vs. Lopez, die op 2 april in première gaat op NBC.

‘Ik denk dat het nemen van risico’s iets heel goeds is’, legde Rinna – die ‘geen spijt heeft’ – uit.

‘Hoe meer risico’s je neemt, hoe beter je leven is en dat is wat ik mijn kinderen probeer te leren. Ik heb zoiets van: “Neem het risico. Als het je bang maakt, doe het dan.”

De gastrol van So Help Me Todd schreef geschiedenis als ‘de oudste vrouw die ooit op de cover heeft gestaan’ Kosmopolitisch‘ voor de ‘speciale digitale’ januari-cover van het tijdschrift, waarop ze een doorschijnende, sprankelende Stella McCartney-catsuit droeg.

‘Het voelde zo geweldig. Ten eerste kon ik het niet geloven toen mijn publicist Jeffrey [Chassen] belde me. Ik had zoiets van: “Je liegt! Ze zetten bijvoorbeeld geen 60-jarige vrouw op de cover van Cosmo. Dat doen ze gewoon niet.” En hij zei: “Nou, nu doen ze dat!”, Herinnerde Lisa zich.

‘Het beweegt de naald voor vrouwen. Het maakt het gewoon ineens goed. Mijn idolen Cher en Madonna en Demi Moore. Ik denk dat ze het zo mooi doen en dat ze zichzelf opnieuw uitvinden en dat ze er geweldig uitzien en dat ze doen waar ze van houden en dat ze nog geen 25 jaar oud zijn en dat vind ik zo leuk.’

Op 29 maart vieren Rinna en haar man Harry Hamlin – die tevens ouders zijn van de 22-jarige dochter Amelia Gray Hamlin – op indrukwekkende wijze hun 27e huwelijksverjaardag.

De 72-jarige Emmy-genomineerde zal zijn eigen kookprogramma van vijf afleveringen presenteren, In The Kitchen With Harry, dat op 15 mei in première gaat op AMC, samen met zijn door Cordon Bleu opgeleide nichtje Renee Guilbault.

De oprichtster van Rinna Beauty ‘Ik kan niet wachten om verbinding te maken met de LGBTQ+-gemeenschap’ op 14 april als Grand Marshal tijdens de Miami Beach Pride Parade ‘in Florida, waar ze onze liefde en steun meer dan ooit nodig hebben.’

She is a loyal wife who describes her husband as ‘a good man’, but the circumstances surrounding Nihita Biswas’ marriage to Charles Sobhraj couldn’t be more bizarre.

Sobhraj, now 79, preyed on Western tourists on South Asia’s hippie trail in the 1970s and lured them to their deaths – with his “serpent-like ability” to seduce while evading detection by authorities, earning him the nickname The Serpent yielded.

His crimes are explored in the final episode of three-part drama The Real Serpent: Investigating a Serial Killer, airing on Channel 4 tonight at 9pm.

It is believed he killed at least backpackers in India, Thailand and Nepal. He was initially sentenced to a total of 29 years in prison for two murders. He spent ten years in a New Delhi prison before escaping.

The serial killer was later imprisoned in Nepal for another 19 years and during this sentence he met his lawyer’s daughter, Nihita, and fell in love at first sight, despite an age difference of more than 40 years.

Here, Femail reveals the age-gap couple’s relationship history and why Nihita has remained by The Serpent’s side despite his heinous crimes.

Who is Nihita Biswas?

Nihita, in her mid-30s, was born in Nepal in 1988, the son of a businessman of Bangladeshi descent and Shakuntala Thapa, a Nepalese lawyer and human rights activist.

Nihita was educated at St Mary’s High School in Kathmandu and obtained her law degree from Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur, Nepal, according to DNA India.

She later made headlines in 2011 after becoming the first Nepalese citizen to participate in season five of India’s equivalent of Big Brother, Big Boss.

However, she was only able to survive for a week and was the first participant to be evicted, as reported by India today.

How did Charles Sobhraj and Nihita Biswas meet?

Nihita’s mother, Shakuntala Thapa, represented Sobhaj during his trial at the Supreme Court of Nepal, but she failed to obtain her client’s release.

Sobhraj was sentenced to life (minimum 20 years) in 2003 for the murder of two Americans and was held in a maximum security prison in Kathmandu.

Nihita, who has a good command of the French language, was brought in as an interpreter for Sobhraj’s visiting French lawyer, which is how she and Sobhraj initially met.

After quickly building a relationship, The Serpent married his second wife Nihita in Kathmandu Prison on October 9, 2008.

Sobhraj was 66 at the time and Nihita was reportedly in his early twenties.

Although her mother and Sobhaj’s lawyer had left Nepal by the time Nihita met Sobhraj for the first time, it is said that afterward she made such an impression on him that he would make excuses to see her again.

Nihita told Times of India: ‘He acted as if he had another assignment for me. He gave me a huge shopping list. It was mostly canned stuff.”

Speaking about her decision to be in a relationship with a convicted serial killer, Nihita emphasized that she believes he has always been innocent.

She said, ‘I don’t know what he was. What he is now is important. He is a good man, I have seen how he takes care of his family. We have a good relationship.’

“He’s innocent,” Nihita added. “There’s no evidence against him.”

On his part, Charles Sobhraj said in a 2008 interview that it was love at first sight for both of them. Times of India.

Are Charles Sobhraj and Nihita Biswas still married?

The killer was first seen publicly with Biswas in 2017, after he was taken from his cell to hospital in Kathmandu for life-saving coronary surgery with the help of his wife.

In December 2002, Sobhraj was flown to France from Nepal from Kathmandu after serving 19 years of his 20-year life sentence.

Biswas was photographed on the phone on the day of his release walking outside immigration as Sobhraj was brought in, but her whereabouts when her husband boarded the plane were unknown.

Sobhraj, who was released from prison early due to his battle with heart disease, is now expected to undergo medical treatment in France, which may include open heart surgery.

A source close to Sobhraj in Nepal said: “His wife has said he may need another operation and will be closely monitored by doctors after landing.”

According to Times of IndiaSobhraj and his wife planned to consummate their wedding after his release, and the couple plans to write a book about how they “found love in the most daunting of circumstances.”

A high-flying Sydney real estate agent who accidentally set fire to a $3.2 million home while preparing for an open house owns two coastal properties herself.

Northern Beaches real estate agent Julie Bundock accidentally set the Avalon Beach home on fire in 2019 after noticing the current tenants had left some bedding on the deck to dry.

She threw the sheets on a shelf in a downstairs room and then turned on a light placed above the shelf, news.com.au reported.

Twenty minutes later a fire broke out and destroyed the entire house. It is believed that the light heated the bedding until it ignited.

Ms Bundock, who no longer works for Domain Residential Northern Beaches, has an extensive property portfolio on Sydney’s North Shore, Daily Mail Australia can reveal.

She owns a two-bedroom Queenscliff unit with panoramic views of the nearby beach.

She bought the clifftop property in 2004 for just $785,000 and now rents the apartment on vacation rental website Stayz for $695 per night.

‘A very private and peaceful area, the highest point of the hill. Enjoy the sounds of the waves and enjoy the sunrises over the ocean and beautiful sunsets over the hills,” she describes on the property listing.

‘Luxuriously furnished with designer finishes, recently renovated with luxurious carpets and an open plan living area leading through sliding glass doors to an extensive wrap-around balcony.

‘Designer kitchen and bathroom, king size main area, very comfortable second, views and built-ins in both. Sep toilet with sink. Study room, unlimited WiFi, washer-dryer combination, closed garage with automatic door.’

She also owns a nearby property in Dee Why, which she bought in 2007 for $290,000.

Ms. Bundock is no stranger to luxurious living. On social media she shares photos of holidays to Vincentia in Jervis Bay and lavish trips to the snow.

On Tuesday, Avalon owner Peter Bush filed a complaint in court, along with the four tenants who lost everything in the 2019 fire.

Mr Bush told the court that Mrs Bundock said words to the effect of: ‘Oh my God Pete, I think I burned down your house’, and she did so in front of others.

‘I was doing some cleaning up. “I gathered some sheets that were drying on the porch and threw them on a free-standing metal shelf in the bedroom under the stairs,” Ms. Bundock reportedly told Mr. Bush.

‘I just threw them there, Piet, right against the light on the wall. I think that’s what started the fire.”

Chief Judge David Hammerschlag ruled on Tuesday that Ms Bundock ‘actively created the risk of fire and resulting damage’.

‘It is obvious that a fire can start if you put or throw bed linen against a burning light. That risk was clearly foreseeable, and Bundock should have known,” Hammerschlag said in his decision, also noting that the officer was an “aggressive and uncooperative witness.”

“Her evidence was clearly colored by a heightened sense that she had caused the catastrophe,” he said.

He ordered Ms Bundock’s employer, Domain Residential Northern Beaches, to pay Mr Bush $740,642 for the loss of his home and a total of $121,475 to the four tenants.

Mr. Hammerschlag also ordered the agency to pay interest on the combined $862,315, from the time of the fire in May 2019.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson has reportedly been formally offered the opportunity to play James Bond – taking over from Daniel Craig for the next films.

And the actor’s real Bond Girl is his wife Sam, 57, who is 24 years his senior and a  British film director and artist – with the pair having a fiercely private relationship. 

Actor Aaron, 33, met the filmmaker, 58, on the set of Nowhere Boy in 2009 and they share daughters Wylda Rae, 13, and Romy Hero 11, as well as Angelica, 26, and Jessie, 16, from Sam’s previous marriage to art dealer Jay Jopling.

When they first met on the film Aaron was just 18 and Sam was 42. They didn’t get together until after they finished the project where a ‘deep connection’ was formed. 

Sam has enjoyed a hugely successful filmmaking career with films such as Fifty Shades of Grey and has also directed the upcoming Amy Winehouse biopic Back to Black.

But she has also faced a fair amount of personal turmoil – having battled cancer twice. 

In December 1997, at age 30, she was treated for colon cancer. Then in 2000, she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

She practices yoga and meditation, of which she has previously said: ‘I wouldn’t be able to survive everything without the meditation that I do. It’s what I think has made me able to cope with the madness.’

Sam was born in Croydon and grew up near Streatham Common in south London, with her younger sister Ashley and her mother Geraldine and father David.

Her father left the family when she was nine which she has previously described as a ‘sudden, very weird and abrupt’ split. She didn’t see her dad for the next 10 years.

Sam went to Beacon Community College in East Sussex and later attended Goldsmiths, University of London.

She then began exhibiting fine-art photography in the early 1990s and began working on her filmmaking with short videos during this time. 

She was nominated for the Turner prize in 1998, and was the winner of Most Promising Artist award at the 1997 Venice Biennale.

She then moved further into filmmaking and in August 2008, was chosen to direct Nowhere Boy, a biopic about the childhood of John Lennon. She was subsequently nominated for a BAFTA for the film. 

Last year Aaron gave a rare insight into their marriage and touched on their ‘creative partnership’. 

Speaking to Esquire the Kick-Ass star said despite collaborating with Sam on three films he ‘doesn’t think it’s accurate’ to suggest the couple’s relationship is rooted in their creative partnership.

Saying: ‘Yeah, we worked—I met Sam as actor and director. I think we’re really great at collaborating. But that’s not why I fell in love with her’.

Elsewhere in the conversation he discussed the couple’s home life and his shock that his children were already teenagers.

The family moved back to the UK from Los Angeles in 2022 and have since settled in Somerset where Aaron said he has pigs and bees and ‘loves’ life in the country.

The Bullet Train star also spoke about his upcoming acting gigs after originally opting to work less stay to home with his children when they were younger.

Saying: ‘I wanted, purely, to be with my babies, I didn’t want to be taken away from them. I battled with what that would be like.’ 

He later admitted to the interviewer: ‘I’ve probably talked to you more about my kids and Sam than I have with anybody. I’ve got really nothing to hide, and I’m secure in what we have. But I’m not going to unlock things that are actually precious to me.’

Aaron has also previously touched on their age gap which has come under scrutiny in the past. 

He said: ‘I’ve got really nothing to hide, and I’m secure in what we have. But I’m not going to unlock things that are actually precious to me.

‘I don’t really analyze our relationship. I just know that it works. I just feel secure and loved and safe. We have this very deep connection. We’re just in sync.’ 

Before Aaron Sam was married to art dealer Jay. They tied the knot in 1997 and had two daughters together, born in April 1997 and 2005, respectively.

In September 2008, the couple announced that they were separating amicably after 11 years of marriage.

Sam found out about her colon cancer at the end of 1997 – the same year she married Jay and welcomed their first daughter Angelica. 

She originally thought that her cancer symptoms were her body’s reaction to giving birth and had three GP visits where she was told she was just ‘recovering slowly’.

After her pain intensified she went to see a private doctor and was correctly diagnosed. 

The next day she went into hospital and had a foot-and-a-half of her colon removed and stayed in hospital for three weeks.  

Then, in the autumn of 1999, she found a lump in her armpit and subsequently had treatment for breast cancer.

She told The Guardian of the tough experience: ‘You go through all that, and you still don’t know if it’s gone. 

‘It’s all percentages: if you do this, you get this much percentage knocked off the possibility of recurrence. And it’s always something pathetic like three per cent.’

After overcoming cancer and her divorce she found happiness with actor Aaron.

In 2022 Sam dubbed her husband Aaron ‘father to all 4 girls’ as they celebrated 10 years of marriage. 

’10 glorious years. My incredible husband, father to all 4 girls. I love you, I love you, I love you. love conquers all,’ she wrote.

In honour of the marriage milestone, the pair decided to renew their ‘vows and confess our love in front of our nearest and dearest friends and family.’ 

‘It was a magical unforgettable day and the sun did not stop shining on us both,’ Aaron gushed on Instagram.

‘We are blessed beyond belief. Sammy you are my love, my life, my soulmate, my wife, my world!’

In 2011 then-Prince Charles presided over the ceremony in which Sam received her OBE in honor of her photography and artwork.

‘It’s such an incredible honor to receive this award — something I would never have dreamt of,’ she told the BBC. ‘It’s very gratifying for an artist to get recognition at this level.’

It comes as Aaron ‘has been formally offered the opportunity to play James Bond’, putting an end to months of speculation regarding Daniel Craig’s successor. 

He is yet to officially accept the role, but should he do so he will become only the seventh actor to play the iconic British secret agent since the franchise launched in 1962.

A recent poll suggested Idris Elba was still the public’s number one choice for the role, despite being 51 – old for a Bond candidate – and already ruling himself out of the running in order to focus on his crime drama, Luther. 

But Aaron, who is known for his roles in Nocturnal Animals, Kick-Ass, Nowhere Boy and Avengers: Age of Ultron, has landed the coveted part, reports The Sun.  

A source said: ‘Bond is Aaron’s job, should he wish to accept it. The formal offer is on the table and they are waiting to hear back.

‘As far as Eon is concerned, Aaron is going to sign his contract in the coming days and they can start preparing for the big announcement.’ 

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Aaron for comment. 

Responding to the rumours that he could step into Bond’s shoes last week, Aaron played coy, telling Numero: ‘I find it charming and wonderful that people see me in that role. I take it as a great compliment.’

He began acting as a child and has seen his career go from strength to strength, with three huge film appearance this year alone.

Aaron will be starring as a famous action star who goes missing in The Fall Guy, opposite Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.

And he will also be appearing in the hotly anticipated remake of 1922 gothic horror Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers and featuring a star-studded cast, including Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp and Willem Dafoe.

But Aaron’s biggest upcoming role will see him rejoin the superhero universe, as he will be playing the titular role in Kraven the Hunter, the fifth film in Sony’s Spider-Man Universe.

He also has been nominated for two BAFTAs and previously won Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Globes for Nocturnal Animals.

The Bullet Train star’s name has been in the running for Bond for a while now, alongside fellow A-list contenders like Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill and recent Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy.

In October last year, the Mail exclusively revealed that Aaron was the ‘one to beat’ to take the iconic role, while Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan was looking likely to helm the next film in the franchise.

The insider said: ‘Aaron Taylor-Johnson is currently the hot favorite to step into the iconic role, he’s the first choice for Barbara Broccoli – he is the one to beat.’

They added of Christopher: ‘He is extremely interested in doing something very different with the franchise. If he can get his way with producers, then he is all for it.’

Kanye West’s Australian wife Bianca Censori is not known for her modest outfits, from wearing sheer ponchos to risking jail time for wearing sheer tights in Paris.

The 29-year-old architect, who married the 46-year-old rapper in a private ceremony in December 2022, has seen her fashion choices become increasingly risky over time, with those closest to her claiming that it has to do with Kanye’s alleged ‘controlling behavior’. manners.’

Now experts have claimed there is more to the power couple’s ‘game plan’ and that is to outdo ex-wife Kim Kardashian by ‘breaking the internet’ with the X-rated looks.

Mark Borkowski, one of Britain’s leading PR gurus, told MailOnline that Kanye West is using Bianca Censori to copy his ex-wife Kim Kardashian’s publicity strategy – but is taking his ‘freak show’ to the extreme.

Using Bianca’s body and outfits to boost his fame and fortune makes for many uncomfortable and alienating brands, he said.

But Mr Borkowski said that despite accusations of controlling and coercive behavior by the former rapper, Bianca might be very happy about it.

He said: “Kanye understands the outrage and is trying to destroy the internet. I think despite everything he’s said, a lot of people are starting to feel quite uncomfortable about the fact that he feels like he can do whatever he wants with his partner.

“There’s a line drawn here between those who believe this is control and those who believe this woman is complicit and fully involved in this freak show. But it’s a weird freak show that everyone is into and some are enjoying these quite explicit photos.

“I think we’ll look back on this if there’s a divide between them as something that’s exploitative. Some dresses are made to crave publicity.

Kanye has shared a slew of highly sexualized images of his wife, despite criticizing his ex Kim Kardashian for “dressing too sexy” during his stint as a gospel artist.

When Kim wore a custom corset-style mini dress made of silk organza and dripping crystals by French designer Thierry Mugler to the 2019 Met Gala, Ye openly denounced the reality TV icon’s ensemble.

“I didn’t realize that this was affecting my soul and my spirit as someone who is married and loved, the father of what is about to be four children,” Ye said of Kim’s outfit choice.

‘A corset is a form of underwear. It’s hot. But who is it hot for?’ You are my wife, and it affects me when photos are too sexy,” he told his wife.

Mr. Borkowski continued, “One can only assume that this is a way for Kanye to keep his name front and center and on everyone’s lips, as well as a statement to his ex-wife Kim, who engaged in the same publicity he brought to another level, but she did it with much more style and panache. It wasn’t as direct as this.

“If we reevaluate those who have exploited their partners in the past, this is a high watermark.

“I feel awkward, but you’re looking at someone who can start a conversation, Kanye knows how to do that.

‘But I don’t see a strategy here. With his anti-Semitic comments and outrage, he has distanced himself so far from brands that there must be a line where he doesn’t want that.”

The couple has been making headlines lately for their attention-seeking outfit choices and bizarre outings.

Their most shocking excursion took place when they were spotted enjoying an amorous moment on a water taxi in Venice, with Kanye baring his bare bottom to staring tourists.

Footage of the couple showed the American rapper sitting in the back of the river taxi as his Australian bride rested her head on his lap.

Last month she wore a sheer poncho with nothing underneath to a music studio, although a mark on the front of the coat helped protect her ample chest, she was forced to put her hand on her crotch to protect her modesty.

She has even been photographed on her way to a tanning appointment wearing tiny black shorts with a small hole visible in the front of the pants, designed for sex toys.

SCIENTISTS working on humanoid robots are genuinely concerned about the prospect of the technology being used for evil.

So says a humanoid expert who spoke to The US Sun at this week’s South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas.

Professor Luis Sentis of the University of Texas at Austin spoke at the conference and presented his work with a robot called Draco 3.

Draco 3 is designed as a helpful AI robot that can perform menial tasks such as washing dishes and helping around the house.

Sentis isn’t necessarily concerned about Draco, but fears that similar technology could be used for the wrong reasons.

When asked if evil humanoids are a real concern, he simply replied, “Of course.”

I think warfare is the most tangible thing,” he continued.

‘War with Ukraine, Israel and Gaza has been a transformation.

“Now it is being combated by drones and that is not going back.

“In future wars, the armies of the future will have millions of drones, because the infantry.

“You know, we’ve lost half a million lives in Ukraine and Russia and this is terrible, and a lot is being lost in Israel.

“We will see a proliferation of machines in battle, with countries not wanting to see their infantry die.”

Sentis compared the fear of the unknown when it comes to humanoids to automatic weapons.

“This is similar to the developments we’ve seen in automatic weapons, where the argument is that it’s terrible for war because anyone can press a button and destroy the world.

‘There is the argument that this has deterred people from using them [humanoids] because there is a balance,” the expert said.

“It’s not my area of ​​expertise and I’m concerned about it,” he added.

Sentis would prefer to see humanoids used for things like helping small businesses or the elderly.

He gave the example of Draco 3 and all the positive things the humanoid is capable of.

“It’s easy to train. Can put things in boxes faster. It can move things.

“It’s very attractive to see how robots are helping small businesses, and to see how robots can control people at home.”
