I want the "messing with scary robots" guy's job.

And then at the end, the robot escapes.

After the way they treated the robot in that video, I wouldn't be surprised that the robots try to take over the earth...

The Ultimate Computer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ultimate_Computer

A skeleton Enterprise crew are assigned to test a revolutionary computer system that is given total control of the ship.

The computer goes mad, defends it's self, and changes it's programming.

there is another show called Spock's Brain

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spock%27s_Brain

people relied on computers too much and they did not go to school. they could only do tasks when they put the teacher on there head. the knowledge is only temporary, so we should always go to school or end up like them.

Stay In School!

It was mentioned there could be possible future uses for law enforcement. Be very afraid.

And when they do, that guy will be first against the wall.

Donald Trump is already planning to tattoo QR codes on illegal immigrants so that an army of these robots-- roaming the highways and byways of America -- can capture them and toss them over the Great Wall of Mexico.
