Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos




  • Jeff Bezos made friends with a four-legged Boston Dynamics robot.
  • He posted a photo to his Twitter account of him and the robot with the caption, "Taking my new dog for a walk."
  • Bezos is attending the invite-only MARS conference, which stands for Machine learning, home Automation, Robotics, and Space exploration.

Jeff Bezos has a new four-legged friend.

The Amazon CEO posted a photo to his Twitter account on Monday of him "walking" his new "dog" - a four-legged Boston Dynamics SpotMini robot, the same robot that recently learned how to open doors.

Bezos is currently attending Amazon's invite-only MARS conference. MARS stands for Machine learning, home Automation, Robotics, and Space exploration.

It was at the MARS conference last year that Bezos famously piloted a 13-foot robot from Hankook Mirae Technology.

Coincidentally, Bezos appears to be wearing a nearly identical outfit to the conference that he debuted in Sun Valley, Idaho, last summer. The photo made headlines, since Bezos looked quite muscular compared to previous years.

Bezos appears to be keeping up his workout regimen in 2018 - and has some new sunglasses to boot.
