Very practical. I think these will evolve into walking tanks. Active/reactive armor, dual 50 cal machine guns and a cannon.
Its an old sci fi concept. But the tech is so advanced now that these death machines will actually make it into tomorrow's battlefield.

The article says the robot takes it's first baby steps, which makes sense since I only see a picture and not a video of this bad boy in action.

In the modern battlefield first rate powers don't typically attack with armor or infantry until they've already secured air superiority. Active/reactive armor briquettes like modernized tanks are equipped with can reduce the effectiveness of RPG and TOW missile type attacks. A weapon like this would be close infantry support, possibly even more versatile than armored cavalry. And you can also pick up an enemy and punch their head off like in the movies. This concept has a lot of combat potential.

does it really need legs and hands with fingers tho? I mean that thing looks top heavy and clumsy as fuck. how fast can it turn around? can it even actually walk and anything but a flat surface? I mean honestly this seems like a huge fucking waste of money and shit kinda pissed off about it.

The Won is their local currency. And that looks like the total sunk cost into the project's research and development so far, not a cost per unit. Its about $200 million dollars spent on the project in total so far.
Quote:
Yang, who dreamed as a child of building his own robot, said he has invested 242 billion won ($200 million) in the project since 2014 to "bring to life what only seemed possible in movies and cartoons".
I bet that within 25 years, by 2040, some version of these machines is on the battlefield alongside light infantry.

Well, South Korea does engage in psychological warfare with North Korea along the border. Blasting pop music and signs trying to get northerners to defect. Think that a few of those patrolling the border would likely have some effect on the morale of soldiers on guard -- presume it is pretty intimidating in person.
