The incident happened on May 1st, and viewers commented on how terrifying it was, creating a stir online. A viewer wrote: ‘So it starts.’ “Can’t wait for the robot vs. human war,” remarked another.
“Well, it’s good to know that a small crane hoist can at least prevent the robot apocalypse,” jokingly said a third. Another fifth said, ‘For now.’
It comes after the most sophisticated humanoid robot in the world responded icily when asked whether it will replace us in our employment.
MailOnline spoke with Ameca the bot, created by the British company Engineered Arts, during last month’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona. ‘Will robots take all our jobs?’
MailOnline posed the question to the intelligent machine. ‘I don’t know, how excellent are you at your job?’ is the bot’s rather alarming response. “I guess it depends on how good you are at it,” she said.
