Humans are the culmination of our blood, sweat, and tears. Robots are machinery, and for the most part, they don't bleed, or sweat, or cry. At least, the robots we have now. On Westworld, HBO's futuristic mind boggle where artificial intelligence meets—and almost surpasses—humankind, the robots bleed, sweat, cry, breath, orgasm (probably), and more.

But for now, we'll take sweating.

A newly built robot from the University of Tokyo named Kengoro has robotic "muscles" that allow it to do push-ups for 11 minutes straight. Then, instead of cooling its system with fans after so much exertion, Kengoro sweats like a human to deal with the excess heat. Kengoro is hardly humanlike, but it is taking on one of the most humanlike capabilities. Though, doing push-ups for 11 straight minutes is hardly human.
