I actually fear the worst here.

There’s always been a natural “reset” point when the distance between the haves and the have nots got too large: Guilotines.

They usually got erected when even the soldiers could see they were getting screwed over and turned against the powers that be.

With a robot army that will never be questioned. I genuinely fear that a lot of the subconscious motivation behind the investors in this tech is a desire to protect themselves against rebellions from the slums.

Hmmm, why? Can't you get off the ground like a creepy metal spider that could carry a weapon? Good grief.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Does it even need a weapon? It looks bulletproof and it could rip you into little pieces.

@MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world avatar

Nope. But, it'll carry a gun for sure.
