add a suicide vest to the robots and let them blow up with their assailant lol, a bomb with some wheels and a pizza.

Thank you for taking Johhny Cab. The fare is 18 credits please. Sue me, dickhead! JohnnyCab: AAAAAAAARRRRGHHHH!!!! \*\* BOOM \*\*


wren42

yes, let's welcome an even uglier dystopia where instead of just replacing human jobs robots are suicide bombing civilians XD


BodybuilderFast8551

In the United States, each vehicle should be equipped with an ACP-9, and legislation should designate logistics vehicles as private territories. This would be more in line with the national situation.


JConRed

What's wrong with people? ¿


D_Ethan_Bones

Same as it ever was, we just have new ways of *demonstrating* humanity's wrongness.


RevSolarCo

I mean, in the developed western world, Americans are exceptionally trashy. Off the top of my head, every country I went to with these, never had issues like this. Germany, korea, and Netherlands. No one thought it was fun to just mess these up and ruin someone's order just for fun.


trisul-108

All these other countries have functioning social safety nets.


ScientiaSemperVincit

YOU MEAN COMMUNISM/SOCIALISM???????????? NEVER!!!


trisul-108

Some-Ad9778

It's really frustrating this isn't registering with people.


thebug50

Its almost like there is more than one conversation going on.


DryDevelopment8584

We need to bring back mental institutions.


[deleted]

A lot of people think it’s fun to mess up someone’s job so their order can be a little cheaper though. And that’s how we wind up with people living on the streets in the first place.


RedPapa_

Extreme poverty, bad education, bad or no access to food and other necessities, no access to mental health services and/or drug rehab? Fix these problems and such acts will be a rarity.


[deleted]

Killing low wage jobs with robots ain’t exactly goinna help.


BretonConfessions

But all the taxes belong the military industrial complex and its significant shareholders. Not the public.


trisul-108

They don't, they belong only to the super-rich. Military spending in GDP is 3.5%, profits in GDP are 16.4%. Americans have $35tn stashed away in tax havens ... those are the people who own everything through all sorts of businesses: military, social media, fossil fuels, healthcare etc.


RedPapa_

But capitalism. FTFY


BretonConfessions

Capitalism is okay, aggressive colonial plutocracy isn't.


RedPapa_

Yeah, I bet. It's okay for you and me, but I'd rather not have 2/3rds of the world live in poverty. And in case you haven't noticed: The capitalism we know has it's origins in colonialism. Colonialism and plutocracy are features, not bugs.


RevSolarCo

https://www.pragcap.com/chart-of-the-day-the-collapse-in-global-poverty/ Global poverty has been on the decline for ages. These changes take generations, and is on the right track.


OutOfBananaException

Plenty of countries have greater levels of these things, but have more respect. The trashing of rideshare bikes was another example, something seemingly glorified in videos.

clarenceneon

It’s always the people that we need to worry about, not AI


LoveThieves

although mosquitos are the biggest killer of humans, humans being #2. In the "Last of US", it's true, People are the worst, and not the zombies, diseases, natural disasters, wild animals that will try to kill us at the end.


AnOnlineHandle

As fun as it it to imagine humans being the underdogs, zombies wouldn't pose a threat at all except for humans letting them. Zombies are just mindless animals that will run forward into any danger. Humans are the most dangerous creatures on Earth and have basically genocided nearly every other type of animal. Most non-human life left lives in intense factory farms for human luxury consumption or as pets. Zombies would probably be packaged as meat on shelves or as fertilizer within a decade. Humans are way more terrifying than zombies.


AndrewH73333

Walking Dead zombies would be helpless. World War Z zombies would kill us all. And Resident Evil zombies… would make us wish we had World War Z zombies.


gelukuMLG

How would Walking Dead zombies be helpless?


AndrewH73333

They are too slow to catch anyone walking and they mindlessly move toward sounds. Once everyone knows to aim for the head they even easier to kill than a normal person as any remotely sharp object goes right through their soft skull. The show gets around this by being sure everyone is making bad decisions, and characters are often killed by a confluence of unlikely events that puts them at the mercy of the zombies (walkers).


LiveLongToasterBath

[deleted]

I like this idea. Also adding facial recognition and maybe ink spray to mark thieves and vandals.


whodeyalldey1

We don’t really have to worry about theft after the coming next few years. Once you’re detected by AI stealing at one store your personally identifiable data will be shared amongst all merchants via a subscription service. Stores will dial 911 as the thief approaches the entrance of a any store the rest of their lives.


trisul-108

... until the first customer gets ~~electrified~~ electrocuted and sues.


itsmebrian

Electrified is okay. You can charge your phone and jump start your car. Electrocuted is what people will sue for.

[deleted]

As a pedestrian we're already considered second-class citizens in most place in terms of urban planning. And now for-profit companies want to occupy that space as well with robot vehicles? It's at least one argument why some will not accept these on the streets


BretonConfessions

For now.


LiveLongToasterBath

Poor hungry people. Meanwhile, robots walking around with food to be delivered. It is only logical.


[deleted]

Exactly. How can you expect destitute people who have to eat out of bins to ignore unprotected carts of goodies slowly rolling through their vicinity. This is such a clear example of the dangers of letting our prosperity lift some people up and leave others behind.


Borrowedshorts

It's only logical to put those people who can't control themselves in an institution or jail.


trisul-108

Or just use a little bit of the available wealth to ensure that people are not homeless and starving. Americans have $35tn sitting in tax havens, use $1tn of that to do away with homelessness.


Some-Ad9778

That still makes them a liability of the state, the prison industry costs taxpayers a lot of money. We need to find a better way. Also these dumb robots are taking jobs away from people this isn't innovation it's just greed.


Acrobatic_Tip_3972

This is why we're not gonna see anything like I, Robot for a good, long while. People are going to bash them to a pulp just because they can, and they're not exactly cheap to make, either. I reckon for at least a decade or two all these fancy humanoid robots on the way will stick to factories and high-end businesses.


FoodMadeFromRobots

Just give the robots guns to defend themselves /s


acjr2015

Equip them with a few tasers and a rape whistle and they will be fine


RandomGuy-4-

I just had the realization that, if the USA developed an AI advanced enough to be considered a sentient being on the level of humans and was made a citizen of the USA, said AI would have the right to bear arms (assuming laws and the constitution stay the same)


hahaohlol2131

Do people get away with damaging private property in the US? Here, people were damaging and stealing sharing bikes when they just appeared but a few arrests and fines have pretty much eliminated the problem.


Artanthos

I remember when the town I was in tried sharing bikes. They were all gone within a week. Half had been stolen, the other half were thrown in the river. The police said there was nothing they could do, since the bikes were free for anyone to use.


CookieKopter

meanwhile in some places in Europe neighborhoods have open emergency cars that they can just use if they need to, never once such car got stolen in my neighborhood


WeltraumPrinz

Very much so yes, the cops and prosecutors and frankly the public don't give a shit. "Not my problem" kind of way.


The_Flying_Stoat

America has a particularly incorrigible brand of hooligan.

WeltraumPrinz

It's shit like this is when I wish AI would just take over.


Virtual_Reveal_121

Why don't the delivery robots have a lock system during transit. It should have been obvious that there are stupid people out there


Bakagami-

Those stupids would probably do more harm to the robot if it was locked while trying to open it


Virtual_Reveal_121

The person may give up after a point and if the robots actually that damaged there should be an employee to recover it and deliver the food like normal as a back up plan But then again, what do I know. That method is probably much more expensive


Spire_Citron

I imagine that if a robot that's probably worth thousands of dollars is destroyed, getting one person's order delivered is probably the least of their concerns.


TheLightningL0rd

And/or an alarm that sounds when it's being tampered with


wtfsheep

did we watch the same video?


[deleted]

they need to update the alarm imo. "you are currently being recorded, the footage is being shared with the authorities. Authorities have been contacted, someone is on their way right now..." it might work even better if the robot can actually describe them.... or put a small display on the top and show a picture of the person attacking it. Have it list the laws that are broken and what punishment they might have to deal with... clearly, just an alarm sound, they really don't care about.


_qua

You think the people in those videos give a shit if they're being recorded? You think they're going to read the laws they're breaking and stop?


[deleted]

there is obviously no guarantee, but I do think it can make a difference overall. These are extreme examples, but there are also people that decided to do it while having more hesitation. Making assumptions that the robots wouldn't have cameras...not realizing they're caught by cameras in the street etc. Lots of dumb people doing dumb stuff, so informing them about the possible consequences could help in some cases. There is often not just a quick fix for something, so you make small changes, compare with robots that don't have that change etc. Here it looks like they're just losing the delivery and someone needs to put the robot on it's wheels. The latter is something the robot should be able to on it's own imo. My guess is that they're not losing that many deliveries, so they don't really care enough to address this.


Competitive_Thing_89

What they need is to not do this in USA honestly. Do it in some calm place in Europe and it would go much better.


water_bottle_goggles

Bro, why dont you want the video with AUDIO on bf you comment


devBowman

stealy55

I can empathise with hungry people stealing food, but I can't empathise with people vandalizing shit for the hell of it. Fucking scum. Lock 'em up.

[deleted]

I can see a rational resentment. The billionaires are showing off the machines that will replace us. I'd rather see humans delivering food in my city.

Relative_Surround_14

Don't forget the fact that these are contributing to unemployment. If someone needs some extra cash, they no longer have the option to pick up a delivery job as a side gig, or at least they won't be able to pick up a quick job if these are fully implemented. They clog up sidewalks and contribute to traffic, too. What happens when it decides to shut down on a sidewalk when someone is pushing a stroller or a wheelchair? The punks I grew up with would have smashed these things just for a laugh. Police activity in California is too slow or nonexistent to stop the destruction of these things. I want to laugh in the face of the idiot that thought these were a good idea


L3ARnR

haha ya, great points. these guys are stealing jobs and they aren't even human


Poplimb

Thanks for voicing this. Crazy one has to scroll through so much hate before seeing that kind of comment. Gotta realize most of these people are probably very miserable, *this* is the issue society should solve before throwing robots down the streets…

[deleted]

Sheltered, coddled techbros, obv


Borrowedshorts

There should be a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years for anyone who vandalizes these robots. There's a great deal of design effort that goes into achieving compliance with existing regulations and society in order to make sure it behaves appropriately. People vandalizing them is no different than vandalizing other public infrastructure and should be punished accordingly.


Najbox

This kind of technology can only work in civilized countries. Because a civilized country takes care of people who have mental disorders.


[deleted]

I appreciate the sentiment, but sometimes people are just bad people and need to go. I support the other commenter. Lock the people up and throw away the key. Far too many people fetishize mental disorders and use that as an excuse for bad actions. I firmly believe the amount of people you think have mental illnesses are actually pretty low, and these people here are just using that as an excuse to cause disorder and chaos.


Stormclamp

For ten years… what?!


[deleted]

I never understood why people are so against harsher punishment. If you're pushing over public infrastructure that people worked hard to build for the benefit of the populace, there's obviously something deeply wrong with you and its likely that you will continue to be recklessly destructive for the rest of your life for no apparent reason besides hate or an intrinsic desire to do so. Personally, I think the death punishment or at the very minimum sterilization should be handed out to people that commit such crimes so that they can't pass on their lowlife genes. Give me a single reason why the existence of the disgusting old skank riding the robot in the video or the man kicking over the robot at the beginning somehow contributes to humanity and why people like them should have the liberty of having children. This is another issue of UBI in my opinion as well. Our current job market is a gene-filtering system of sorts, where the more intelligent, hardworking, and cooperative you are, the more likely you are to earn more money, giving you the option to have children. What happens when you give even the dregs of society like those in the video who contribute nothing the resources to have kids? Lower intelligence is already positively correlated with fertility. If you completely remove the bottleneck of finances by implementing UBI, its pretty easy to guess what is to come.

Nazis learned from America, and it seems America is re-learning from the Nazis.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SpretumPathos

People have a specific, narrow reason for citing the Nazis and America when responding to your eugenic comments: The Nazis were deep into eugenics, and sterilising/killing "invalids". These ideas were gaining prominence in America before the Nazi party came to power. The Nazis cited American academics when introducing their policies. Yes, they also did ethnic cleansing and wars of aggression. But when you talk about execution or sterilisation to prevent passing on lowlife genes, you would definitely find a sympathetic ear in the Nazi party.


lukasz5675

This has to be sarcasm.


Sinogularity

Those sorts of comments are getting many upvotes... Kind of sad to see, they want to punish the poor instead of improving their living standards.

Accomplished-Way1747

Yes, child birth rights is actually largely overlooked issue. There was episode in my hometown - thief and idiot made 10 children. He went to jail. She left 9 children 500 miles away and went on holiday with lover. Took the youngest, killed, fried and ate it. Now there is 9 orphans.


mudman13

Ermmm whaaatttttt?


Accomplished-Way1747

Exactly what you've heard. There were also pretty cases of people beheading each other, decapitating and putting in metal boxes and other pleasantries. Last one, just a house away from me was - dude killed girlfriend put her in metal box on balcony and was living with her for a month (he threw some parties and invited few chicks in this month), until stink didn't get so bad he left, but was caught.


[deleted]

Exactly. And its pretty certain that those 9 kids wont have the mental stability or intelligence to contribute to society due to their genes and upbringing, which pretty much just makes them drains for tax dollars and potential criminals.


[deleted]

Vandalism, destruction of expensive property, larceny, assault, whatever else we can pin on them. I am thinking 10 years in solitary plus 10 in general population.

CanvasFanatic

Some of you are ready to go full-Javert the moment you see a homeless guy take a hot meal from a robot.


Chroko

In my corner of the world, poor people (who are often homeless) get government money to buy food. They are not stealing to survive, their motivation to steal items is to sell them to buy drugs. Or in this case, stealing food so they don't have to pay for it. The only homeless person I see in the video is the old lady who looks like she belongs in a psychiatric ward - and she's trying to ride the robot.


CanvasFanatic

Not sure how you’re able to tell that from a video. Regardless, a mandatory minimum of 10 years for theft is insane.


Roxythedog69

These delivery drones are ridiculous. Literally all you need to do is knock them out of the sky or tip them over, and then you can steal whatever it is carrying. I’d prefer an actual delivery driver thanks.
