Have you seen the Black Mirror episode inspired by these things?

>Black Mirror

No, I don't watch any tv, netflix, etc. But I've sure seen a crapload of headlines comparing this to Black Mirror. (In fact, I eventually had to filter it out. Judging from the 'flow' volume, it must be a popular series. Not quite a Game of Thrones but getting stronger than Stranger Things.)

Its sort of a 21st century, SciFi version of the Twilight Zone.

Remember the first time someone died in a crash where a Tesla was on auto-pilot and it was covered like it was an imminent threat to all right-driving people? Just wait for this!

I find that black one to be particularly creepy.

Good to see they put Atlas to work in the shipping department. He needed a job.

I think useful bot tools like this one will creep in and wreck things unintentionally while we're looking at the big legged ones of the (near) future.
