EXTERMINATE THE DOCTOR PEPPER
I’ll be waiting for the news of when it gets destroyed by someone.
You mean, waiting for news when it gets isekai'd after someone pushes it in front of a train lol.
I'm waiting for it to end up beat up with baseball bats and dumped in a fountain
...
Damn you

Eggcelent. We eagerly await the completion of your grand project.
All the things the cops would want this bot to do are prohibited by rules or by the potential for public outrage; no facial recognition, no offensive capabilities, it's basically just a camera drone. But that will change when the rules change, or when people stop paying attention... if this thing can avoid being trashed for more then ten minutes after it's deployed.
Yeah I’m waiting for the article about it being pushed onto the tracks.
This was my first thought, too. This thing is gonna get hit by a train.
Hopefully within the first week.
prohibited by the potential for public outrage
Give it a minute little frogs, this is them initially turning the burner on under the pot. It's gonna get warmer.
I bet if you break this thing you will get charged with assault on an officer
Uh, how is it better than a security camera? Can it dispense pepper spray or chase dudes up stairs?
Well, you see this uses up a far larger chunk of the pointlessly huge police budget. I'm sure they'll also figure out a way for it to kill people soon.
So a security camera on wheels
Maybe this ridiculous thing will eventually replace some of the worst or most useless human cops... in twenty years, after a few billion tax dollars, just before their union neuters the project and renders it virtually useless. Think of the possibilities!
How long until it shoots the first black person? Place your bets now.
Are we even taking bets that don't say the word "month" in them?
Inb4 someone gets charged with assaulting an officer for drawing a dick on a robot
I'm going to steal it.
It would be a real shame if something bad were to happen to it.
People are going to draw so many dicks on that boi.
Hmmm I wonder if anyone has ever hacked a police department by requesting all the bodycam footage and watching an authentication happen.
How long until it drowns itself?

Why do I get phycho pass vibes from this thing?
Can even security robots prevent anything?
Is it just fancy CCTV?
CCTV that can follow people, raise an alarm, and be shoved in front of an incoming train when it does. A cleaning robot would have been more useful.
Man it would be funny if someone just takes the thing and demands a Ransom...
I'm gonna push that offbrand baymax onto the tracks.
