I don't say this often cause it's kinda silly most of the time. But this really is manufactured consent for thinking we need robot dogs having guns. It escalated so fast from a bomb detector/natural disaster aid to a fucking walking turret. All under the guise that oh isn't technology so cute!!! uwu
for context, the paintball gun is an art piece meant to warn of the thing's potential use as a weapon. CNN is incapable of reporting on it as critical but that's clearly what it is.
robocops are definitely evil tho. RIP micah johnson
What if they become self aware and turn on the police?
Not holding my breath. The only cops this thing will be going after are officers named Christopher Dorner.
