Every single day something happens that subtly reminds us that it’s starting to be the Future we once dreamed of as kids reading Asimov, Vonnegut, and Philip K. Dick. Today’s future-ish reminder comes in the form of this amazingly frightening video of new robotic technology.
Don’t know about the rest of you, but if we saw one of these running after us, we’d be absolutely convinced that we were either 1) Inside Blade Runner, Terminator, or the Matrix or B) hallucinating. The two actually go hand-in-hand. That said, it’s scary what it can do…pay special attention to when the sadistic scientist tries to kick the poor thing over. Are we the only ones that felt a pang of empathy for the robotic dog of terror?
