Killer robots in Sweden

By Alex

All this stuff about robots...they seem so great right? But just when we start to trust these docile creatures they go all haywire on us and it's starting NOW, no matter what inane creature the Japanese robot constructor showed us yesterday. A guy in Sweden was attacked by a huge robot built for lifting stones. Some reports say it grabbed him by the head and chucked him around and other reports say it simply whooped his ass like a trained killer collecting his debt (four broken ribs and a close-to-death experience, that is). You can make jokes about factory workers being dumb they might as well have rocks in their heads or even get alchemical and clever and talk about the Philosopher's Stone (aka the brain) in relation to this incident, but we'd just prefer to back off the humor just in case the internet is friends with this machine of rage and wish this guy a safe and happy convalescence.
