I guess no one gives a F for the person waiting for their food in this post.

Why wasn't uber arrested for obstructing this woman's path with their shitty robot?

What is the charge? Blocking a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?!

If you can block bots online, why can't you block them in the physical world?

This is basically the start of the counter to automation. We still tell fables about people who stood againt the devaluation of workers like this.

Has it been set illegal to disobey "multiple commands" of a privately owned robot?

You know.. I'm surprised that no one has.. Done more? I'm surprised hunting these things isn't a trend..

There are Waymos that drive through my workplace all night long. Like literally every 10 minutes. They cause problems all the time, as we have semi tractor-trailers trying to dock, and they'll block their movement and then just sit there waiting. They started putting up cones so they wouldn't pull through but now all the legitimate traffic has to get out and move them around every time they want to come through.

One time I blocked 3 of them in for several hours by trapping them by putting more cones behind them, such that there was no exit. That was fun.

If she was not touching the thing then why didn’t it try and get out of her way? It should not be on the sidewalk in the first place, and should not have right of way.

Next thing to do, put a VR headset on it, and let it take a magical mystery tour!

I think hungry people are going to start stopping these because they have food in them.

What a badass.

"I know they're taking the jobs of human delivery workers and so, I have been protesting them whenever I saw them by standing in front of them and preventing them from going forward," Marvin said.

I mean fuck. Do we want people working as delivery drones? Really? The other post in fuckai about this doesn't even mention she's been doing this for month which obscures why she's been arrested.

And climate change is real you know? A small robot takes little energy compared to a full sized car.

Ideally delivery robots should be state owned and accountable to democratic processes. They are a valuable and useful innovation to solve logistic problems. A way to reshape how neighborhoods are build and planned and make them more energy efficient.

This dogmatic opposition to anything AI is really becoming more and more irrational, less and less grounded in facts and rational arguments. AI needs to be regulated. Like China currently does AI regulations best, but we can't even imagine things like that any more because people just accept neoliberalism as the new world order and screaming is the only thing left to do apparently instead of demanding regulations or nationalization of certain AI infrastructure. Maybe this is linked to some kind of anti-democracy propaganda campaign. Divide and conquer, and don't even let talk about regulation enter the public discussion.

Act surprised when it's revealed Uber sells the camera feed to flock.

"criminal mischief involving a robot"

Sounds like a cool name for an upbeat song by an avant garde electro-jazz group.
