A robot with a badge and not all humans are happy about it.

The New York City Police Force sent in a robot shaped like a dog into a suspected hostage situation. Police say the robodog can save lives by scoping out a crime scene without exposing officers to danger. Critics are calling the robotic dog “creepy” and “terrifying.”

We don’t think you have to worry about a robot takeover just yet, Digidogs weigh 70 pounds and can run 3-and-a-half miles per hour.
