Make no mistake: these robots aren’t autonomous and everything they do is controlled by a human operator. Those hip thrusts and other gross gestures are pre-programmed moves, not something that’s happening spontaneously.
Nonetheless, the German police statement added an unnecessary air of mystery to who was responsible for these actions, saying that it’s now “investigating how the robot was operating at the time of the incident and whether someone was deliberately controlling its movements.”
This is unfortunately another example of how men looking for clout are using the latest gadgets to target women. Plenty of other livestreamers and Instagram “pick up artists” are using Meta smart glasses to film themselves harassing girls on the street and record them without their consent.
Remember when technology was about a vision of the future and not just a reflection of media illiterate, sexist and bigoted rightwing boys?
Hilarious.
The thumbnail picture makes it look like the robot can detach its hands, like flying rocket fists.
Even if a robot is autonomous, a human is responsible for it’s actions. Really needs to be a hard legal line. Anyone trying to tell you it’s more complicated than that is ultimately doing apology for criminality.
If someone brutalises someone else with a knife, you don’t blame the knife
What these guys need to be put in AI therapy.
By the way, Goggle and SpacSex are probably working on that AI + robot design right now for proper military purposes. Here is a snipet from NPR on the subjects matter:.
They gotta start by taking away all the jobs and leaving people homeless. They train in India but the target is maids in the developed world where they may be half the income of some households…but what about construction workers? Folding clothes is much more delicate than driving nails. Yeah, if they make folding clothes work, they will also do construction work, plumbing, mechanics, dental, medical, office, pig, firefighting, etc. That’s all the income of most people’s households. So hopefully the cage thing happens first.
OK, rape as punishment is not a cool idea, nor is it a funny joke.
Seriously. The whole future of everyone on earth is in danger and you focus on defending rich assholes who can use their daddy money on pervy robots…wait until they are bosses at AI.com or politicians with a slight orange cheto hue.
Right then. Off you go.
is it fair to call drumpflibs “scratched” if they were always so violently carceral to begin with
We need another great flood.
Do you realize we’d all die in the great flood?
Bro, some people can swim. Skill issue.
I do! Bring it on.
