So what I’m reading is “Boston Dynamics sues Ghost Robotics because robot dog looks like robot dog”

That's not how patents work unless they're design patents.

Boston Dynamics invented quite a lot and if their claim is true that 7 patents were infringed that's huge.

(Try reading the article next time)

After reading the headline, which inherently proves I can read (further proved by my ability to write a sentence), I've came to the conclusion that these are both robot dogs.

How about read the article instead of just the headlines? Might help a bit in future :)

I will read half the headline and claim I read the entire headline instead. I hope this is sufficient for Reddit. Btw, did you see that there's a Boston dog with a lawsuit now?

Basically.

The patents they cited were for self righting, stair climbing, and using ballscrews. Like c'mon lol. That's like Ford patenting the wheel and suing a small no name car company.
