I’m waiting for pizzas delivered by drone... in January... and dropped right on your snow-covered porch.

...possibly the greatest use for robots yet - safe and secure pizza delivery... So their trying to figure out how to get pizzas into the 'hood without actually sending delivery drivers into the kill zone.

That robot containing pizzas would be tipped and ripped after 5 minutes in the hood.
And I have a picture of these cute little driverless machines crossing and traversing busy highways and by-ways to bring a pizzas to the masses.
What a pipe dream this is...but good publicity, I guess.

Will they be missing teeth and smoke with my pizza in the car? Most delivery persons I see fit that description.
To: C19fan
Thing looks like it’ll only work in relatively benign environments. No rough pavement or snow, and I’ll bet steep hills will greatly reduce that range. Other than the fantastic image recognition and self driving technology, it doesn’t seem much more advanced than the medicine delivery robots I’ve seen in hospitals for 20 years.

Yet another consequence of a $15 or $20 minimum wage.

When the leftist scum set the ‘minimum’ wage at 15 dollars or higher, expect most interactions to be automated. The entry level workers will be on the streets shooting heroin.
To: moovova
Do you tip robots?
In da' hood, tipping is the least of their worries.
