These systems are able to navigate complex landscapes on their own, alert authorities about security threats, and can provide around-the-clock video surveillance.

If only there was a cheaper way to provide around-the-clock video surveillance. Alas, we don’t have the technology.

Even if you needed something mobile, it’s not like datacenters are exactly complex landscapes.

They’re getting all these dystopian nightmare ideas from video games and scifi. People have proven you can sneak past these things inside of a cardboard box.

They are BEGGING for some metal gear carnage.

I wonder how many robot duds will be stolen per year? Lots of neat parts in them if you know some electronics.
Someone will be posting about a factory reset button within a year.
If AI is in charge just ask them to write a time zone calculator in python or whatever.
The elites don’t want you to know this but the robot dogs patrolling data centers are free. You can take them home.
