Everything from Boston Dynamics looks like something trying to kill you in halflife.
 
I like wait but why’s AI articles. Super society or maybe the robots enslave or kill us, TBD.

During a seven-hour standoff with an armed man barricaded inside a Hyannis home earlier this month, state police sent in Spot, a robotic K9, to find the suspect inside.

Police officers had responded to the home on St. Francis Circle shortly after 7:40 a.m. for reports of an adult man, later identified as Justin Moreira, 30, holding his mother at knifepoint. He was later arrested on several counts of attempted murder, as well as additional firearms charges, according to police.

During the lengthy standoff, Moreira periodically shot at police, and at Spot.

The robotic K9 was shot and partially disabled, authorities said. It was the first time a Spot robot was shot during a police deployment, according to Boston Dynamics, the Waltham-based manufacturer of the robotic K9.
