Why do they always have to name things Steve? :)

“And I’ll hug him, and kiss him and call him George.”

Drunken robots jumping into fountains.

Maybe he was transgendered and wanted to be a submarine.

We don’t know.

"...Steve..."

Whatever you say, Stove.

[BipolarBob]

Somebody threw a quarter in the fountain and asked him to retrieve it.

To quote Johnny Cash “The newspapers called it a jailbreak plan, but I know it was suicide, I know it was suicide. “

Wouldn't have been able to do it to the ED-209.

CEO: “Johnson! Mail a letter of condolence, flowers, and a check for a million dollars to the widow!”

Johnson: “But, sir.....your company made the robot.”

CEO: “Excellent. Have all of that on my desk by tomorrow to ease my suffering!”

I took a security job in 2011 at a place which had a REAL problem in the outside show lot with people stealing from RV’s. I invested in a drone with a camera. It was like a video game. It showed me people coming from adjoining property and I would remotely bring that thing down on them (they all looked up, thus getting them on camera) and I’d dive bomb them, sending them scurrying. Solved the problem and I’d drink coffee all night.

Was Hitlery around? He probably committed suicide!

Just pining for the fjords.

The robot had dirt on Hillary.

Steve knew too much. He had to sleep with the fish.

[mass55th]

I guess that disqualifies them from being Lifeguards at beaches and pools.

[bluejean]

Good intel. We can use squirt gun technology to fight against our new AI overlords.

[Hot Tabasco]

There's nothing sadder than an unpaid security robot having to fountain dive for coins just to keep his joints greased.

Steve needs union representation...........

[camle]

it didn’t drown. the word drown is the media’s attempt top anthropomorphize a machine. drowning is when water gets into your lungs.

it fell into a pool and short circuited. it did not drown

[Wuli]

The article’s writers & editors are ridiculous.

“Photos show the sad, waterlogged robot cop partially submerged in defeat.”

Robots do not have emotions, like “happy” or “sad”.

“Steve was still getting used to the streets he was programmed to protect. He was “mapping out the grounds” to theoretically prevent this kind of accident.”

You can call a Robot Steve, or Stephanie if you want but they are a machine, without gender and not a he or a she. Referring to “Steve” as “he” instead of it is ridiculous.

The replacement should be called Seth Robot.
