Anyone seen the black mirror episode “metalhead”?
I really hope I get a chance to encounter and take out one of these motherfucking robots.
How do they hold up against an aluminum baseball bat
I’d rather try a net made of wire cables.
Long stick with a high voltage power supply attached to make the robot go zappy zap.
We somehow went from inventing robot dogs to carry groceries to developing genetically modified dogs for battle. Apparently humanity looked at man’s best friend and thought: nice, but could it be a defence contractor? At this point the only species that really needs obedience training is ours.
Obedience seems to keep getting us genocides and wars, can we try some kind of constructive disobedience next please?
What do you think the robot dogs are for?
The real selling point is a machine that follows orders without hesitation, doesn’t question authority and never files a complaint. Pretty much the ideal employee for an authoritarian government.
The ones used by the military do basically the same thing: carrying supplies in terrain a wheeled or tracked vehicle can’t navigate through.
They wanna put guns on 'em, too, tho.
