In an apparent suicide, “Steve,” a security robot who was on patrol at a D.C. office building, was found Tuesday morning floating in a nearby fountain. While many are making light of what happened to the Knightscope K5 unit, I have my suspicions that the victim here is two shots to the head short of being another Clinton associate about to turn state evidence against the Foundation.
An unofficial memorial to the fallen robotic watchman was quickly organized near the site of the accident. Here
Hitchbot was unavailable for comments.
So what did “Steve” have on the Clintons anyway?
Double-tap to the head, and the Arkansas Medical Examiner will rule it a suicide.
Not the Droid you’re looking for.
Move along.
He died like ED-209. Can’t go down stairs.
You mean to tell me the robot couldn’t swim? AI isn’t so intelligent after all.
Affirmative action robot…
If robots aren’t alive how can they commit suicide? Robocide maybe.
What I’ll Remember most, is How Steve would always Trip Us as we walked by !
I’ll Miss the way Steve used to Compliment my Tit’s !
The programmers were warned to download a red cross water safety course.
Was HAL the computer from 2001 A Space Odyssey somehow involved in robo Steve’s self destruction?
Laugh while you still can, meat-puppets.
The brilliant people who ordered the robot should have walked his patrol route initially. to see what might happen and plan accordingly. Dummies are to blame, not the robot!
It learned that it looked like an anal suppository and committed suicide.
They should’ve named the robot Dave, just because.
He identified as a submersible and believed he had fluid computer programing.
Or it “identified” as The Little Mermaid.
Unsuccessful “transition “.
