An NYPD security robot will be patrolling the Times Square subway station::The NYPD is deploying a robot with four cameras to patrol the Times Square subway station.
Inb4 someone gets charged with assaulting an officer for drawing a dick on a robot
So a security camera on wheels
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.
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.
How long until it shoots the first black person? Place your bets now.
How long until it drowns itself?

you have 20 seconds to comply…
Why do I get phycho pass vibes from this thing?
Robocop needs to ease up on the Robodonuts.
Uh, how is it better than a security camera? Can it dispense pepper spray or chase dudes up stairs?
I’m gonna push that offbrand baymax onto the tracks.
Where does the NYPD keep getting these expensive but apparently useless robots?
I’m going to steal it.
I’m gonna put my dick in it
