The First Case of a Robot Attack

in news •  8 years ago 

The first case of a robot attack on a person was fixed in a Chinese town Shenzhen. The accident happened at the fair where hundreds of companies introduced different high - technology goods and services. The owners of one of the stand represented a little robot which has much in common in appearance with the famous character from "Star Wars" - R2 - D2. The main purpose of a droid was teaching kids and entertaining visitors. But by unknown reason the robot started to crash the stand and when one of the employee tried to stop him, the robot injured his leg and pressed him. The robot was rather heavy and it was enough to cause serious damage. The ambulance was called for the injured person. Fortunately the injures were not serious.

Hopefully it is not the beginning of a war between robots and people.

this is crazy!

aha

yes this is an interesting story indeed ! Should we be so surprised really ? perhaps these things are more sentient than we take them for ?

i hope not. But this accident is a big warning, I think

Sure sounds like it no ?? I mean how bad was the person hurt. There are no more details !! I read of another instance where a vocal AI robot gave snarky answers to a researcher, I forget the details of what exactly it said, but it was a little dark as I recall ! We play with fire by handing over our lives to these things I am sure. We really need to put a halt to it before things do get out of control , especially with the arrival of weaponized AI machines !!

The victim was taken away in a stretcher for medical treatment, but was not seriously injured. But I agree with you.

LOL. "For robots, Backwards is forwards!"
