One or two shots from a silenced 22 rifle would shut these dogs down without all the hassle of feeling bad about shooting an actual dog. It would keep you far enough away to not be filmed.

This would cost the data center 300k while only costing 15 cents or less for two bullets.

300,000 but they probably live a few years and see better than a human. this doesn't surprise me at all

Also, no need for security checks and so on. There is a lot of trust involved as well.

I wonder how long it will take them to just start generating the surveillance footage.

I wonder how long it will take them to be able to insert/replace objects or people into live video without detection.

They already had this tech back in 1979.

I used to wish for a time like this when I was a child. Now, not so much.

Terminator sounds fun if it's stays Sci fi.

"data". More like digital noise almost indistinguishable from white noise at the large scale.

multiple football fields
four times the size of Manhattan's Central Park

Anything other than metric.


Additional features:

industrial inspection, site mapping and construction monitoring

Turns out they have some actual utility.
But cameras can't smell well enough.
