What tech would we need to create a real cybernetic creature? Like a non-shitty Asimo? What are we missing?

battery technology (the heart)
locomotion technology (the body parts)
audio/visual detection (the sensors)
systemizer (the core brain)

depends on what an asimo is, if it's just like, biological musculature with a robot brain, than not much I think. We're already able to grow living muscle tissue in cultures. Robotics would be the main issue, as actually having a robot that stands upright is fucking hard to program, balancing a top heavy thing like a human being on two legs is difficult to say the least. You might be able to give it some kind of personality like those online chatbots that use deep learning, but those things aren't actually conscious in the way human beings are, as far as I'm aware. Consciousness originates from the interaction of the limbic system and the frontal lobe, the frontal lobe is mostly responsible for moral and social judgements, impulse control, and memory to some extent. Basically we know how all the parts work in the human brain for the most part, but all of the interactions between those parts are somewhat of a mystery to us. Either way, we'd never be able to tell if it was actually 'conscious' in the same way we are.

tl;dr we're closer than you think but further than you'd hope

We're 80% there, just the last 20% will take hundred or so years

I think fat and the liver are more analogous to a battery.

The "heart" might pump nano bots through the internal system to automatically repair damage and provide security.

OMFG.
SO smart.
SO realistic.

U must know what U talking about!

You mean like a sentient cybernetic creature? If thats the case then what we're missing is the brain.

About 100 years of material sciences advancements.

Boston Dynamics has gone the farthest toward good robots, and their biggest accomplishment is making a quadraped that can't be tipped over easily, and a biped that doesn't trip.

Wow.
