Massachusetts State Police (MSP) has been quietly testing ways to use the four-legged Boston Dynamics robot known as Spot, according to new documents obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union of Massachusetts. And while Spot isn’t equipped with a weapon just yet, the documents provide a terrifying peek at our RoboCop future.

The Spot robot, which was officially made available for lease to businesses last month, has been in use by MSP since at least April 2019 and has engaged in at least two police “incidents,” though it’s not clear what those incidents may have been. It’s also not clear whether the robots were being operated by a human controller or how much autonomous action the robots are allowed.

There’s an episode of Black Mirror with an almost identical looking robot.

They wiped humanity out.

What could possibly go wrong here

There will be many jokes in this thread, but that is the future. We will have robot dogs as pets/butlers/security/personal assistants, and they will show movies on their bodies and play music. This shite is happening, so better get ready.

These things are so freaky looking with their backwards bent legs.

That's the mechanical dog bot from Black Mirror.

We're done for.

And confiscate people's guns and enforce "order" on the populace.

Pit bulls would be cheaper, they are an abundance at shelters, or running loose in Inner cities.

Step 1. Shoot the human controlling it.

Step 2. Blow up Skynet.
