Viral video shows humanoid robot chasing wild boars off street in bizarre encounter

[Eman623]

The opening sentence of this article raises so many questions.

A humanoid robot known as Edward Warchocki was captured on video chasing a group of wild boars in Warsaw, Poland, in a bizarre encounter that has quickly gained traction online.

1. Why is the robot named Edward Warchocki?
2. Why are boars roaming the streets in Warsaw, Poland?
3. Have the people who programmed the robot to chase boars ever seen the movie Terminator? Is programming robots to chase living things a good idea?
4. Can the robot be bargained with? Reasoned with? Does it feel pity, remorse or fear? Will it absolutely not stop until the boars are dead?
5. Most important! Why did the robot do a Nazi salute after it chased the boars back into the forest?

Good questions.

Another: why does a robot need a backpack?

I have questions too.

Who's job did it replace?

Who was chasing hogs all night in Warsaw before they got the robot?

I want to see an interview with that guy. They could put them on a Dirty Jobs episode.

How can you kill those little baby piglets?

You just don't lead them as much.

Yes, let's arm the robot. What could possibly go wrong?

I bet you could hire a whole team of boar chasers for what that robot costs.

Did you hear about the polish robot kidnappers who sent the kid home with the ransom note? The parents sent him back with the money. They were polish robots, too.

This is progress. They replaced a guy earning $15.00/hour chasing feral hogs and shooting a few for good eating over to a million dollar robot that slogs around making noise slapping its feet after the hogs who run a block over, then come back in 30 minutes or pester the next city block instead so they can chase the hogs away with another million dollar robot.

Progress.

Kinda like self-driving cars. What could ever go wrong?
