Amazon has announced an autonomous dog-like robot named Astro that uses artificial intelligence and mapping technology to zoom around one's house. It's packed with cameras to record what it sees. The device will cost $999 when it launches later this year.

No thanks.

I already have a 2 year old that loves to follow me around and trip me every time I turn around.

Yet another take on an Alexa or similar device that is redundant to everyone's phone.

NOPE x10000

I have all of my privacy, user reporting, and location settings turned off on my phone, and that still isn't enough for me to be comfortable. I STILL get targeted ads and I know Google can still track everything I do

No thanks to a robot with a camera following me and my wife around and "mapping" our house. frick that
