A robot escaped from a testing area in Perm, a city not far from the Urals, and made it on to a busy junction, baffling passersby, but also disturbing traffic.

A robot can do only what it’s programmed to do.

It looks like a Ruusian copy of a Chinese knockoff of a Japanese “robot” that SoftBank sells. Is only purpose is to show slide shows on its lame Android tablet on its chest and notice and react when people pass by. Robot my ass. There is one outside my office every week and it just displays ads.
