Cool like in Mona Lisa Overdrive. All I need to do now is to get a few and move into an abandoned factory in South Jersey until the Yakuza hire me to look after an AI for them.

Agricultural management that is, torching ant hives and wasp nests, are the most common civilian purpose for flamethrowers. And given I'm allergic to some kinds of stings, I'd be glad for a robot dog to manage my wasps for me.

But I don't have a farm, nor $10K to spend on a dogbot.
