Now all it needs is a great big mama spider.

Real neat, but yeah, there’s spiders 0.1mm long that build way cooler webs. But it’s a real interesting start, this! Feels very Gibson-esque.

More seriously, I’d guess either vacuum or the Van der Waals force.

Is any one else slightly nervous about teaching robots to tie knots? I don’t feel like this movie ends well for the humans.

Sounds like a kinky movie to me…
