Sure. But if you showed this video to someone 5 or 10 years ago, they'd say it's fiction.

Telling a robot verbally "Put the cup on the counter" and having it figure out what the cup is, what the counter is in its field of view would have seemed like science fiction. The object manipulation itself is still well behind what we saw in the 2015 DARPA Grand Challenge though.
