They’re getting all these dystopian nightmare ideas from video games and scifi. People have proven you can sneak past these things inside of a cardboard box.
They are BEGGING for some metal gear carnage.
Comment on Robot dogs priced at $300,000 a piece are now guarding some of the country’s biggest data centers

I wonder how many robot duds will be stolen per year? Lots of neat parts in them if you know some electronics.
Someone will be posting about a factory reset button within a year.
If your datacenter is mobile, you’ve really fucked up!

They don’t need something mobile. They can stick 1000 cameras up for the cost of one of these and have less up keep.

I was thinking the same thing. For surveillance, can’t they just use the iconic Camera on Wall. Or if they want to get really advanced with the surrounding premises: Camera on Pole.

Camera on pole can’t “remove” problems as quickly

You don’t need a robot dog to have a gun. If you really wanted to have a wall mounted camera with a gun on it, it would be just as easy.

I don’t think these can either, they don’t list attack or defensive capabilities on the feature list that I saw, I assume this is just an over glorified video camera that can follow the intruder around.

And use AI to actually monitor the thousand cameras. Ask me how I know.
