EATR robots are coming, that isn’t funny anymore

Oh certain, we joke about rogue AI all the duration, and we’re aware that we’ll probably pollute ourselves to death well before the robots get us, but who really thinks flesh-eating machines are a good concept? Has Morpheus taught us nothing? The (patently evil) scientists behind the EATR project — no fair, they’re making their own jokes now too — say the reconnaissance bot is powered by foraging for and consuming biomatter, which to you and us simply means soft, pulsating, yummy humans. They shout it fuel versatility, as gasoline, diesel, and solar potential may additionally be used whether available, yet we’ll offer no prizes for predicting which energy source these chainsaw-equipped robots will prefer.
