I would be entertained for hours playing basically with a remote RC car watching people react to this driving by. 😂😂

[@fitybux4664]

Count the hours until your job is completely replaced by AI. I'm sure the company is constantly thinking of that eventuality.

[@phillipmytank2281]

The homeless are going to love terrorizing those things. They’ll end up in Town Lake just like the rental bikes do

[@narutov4]

They already are and taking the food in it 😂

[@THEERDCO]

This will be the thing that makes city planners fix wheel chair ramps and pedestrian lanes

[@fitybux4664]

Build a tougher robot to handle the terrain.

[@marcuslinton310]

No, it won't. Tax money doesn't go toward assisting robots.

[@jason_v12345]

It's a remote controlled shopping cart, not a "robot".

[@marcuslinton310]

Most delivery bots do drive themselves.

[@bravo_01]

And I thought they really drive themselves lol

Until someone steals it, bet they aren't using it in the hood.

Dang heavy af...lol

Its all fun and games until Coco ends up in a trunk

Doordash has allowed me and my wife to finally pay the bills and now robots are taking that job to…

[@PhotoLabMP]

Doordash isn't a job

[@royfokerpoker1802]

​@@PhotoLabMP
Yeah keep telling yourself that

[@Fourtune1]

It’s a side gig.

[@marcuslinton310]

​@@PhotoLabMP Doordash is absolutely a job, same as a pizza delivery job. These robots are a threat to short distance runs for sure, which I would think would be the best type of door dash to have because short runs make for more runs and more money, right? Well, these are taking all those short runs away from people.

[@ampozas]

Exactly, I dont agree with machines replacing jobs.

[@infini.tesimo]

Finally no more tipping.

[@rickjames520]

Nah just a 5 dollar delivery fee no thanks

[@waskito3443]

@@rickjames520 you would rather drive 2 miles somewhere and back then pay $5?

[@TheTruth-dy8ze]

Quite easy to tip over. Then what, they can right themselves?
Dumb idea, they will go missing so I hope they are insured. Lots of parts for electronic geeks inside. Wonder if they will let them into police stations or public areas with lots of people? Terrorist tool?

[@waskito3443]

1:19 we're tipping robots now?

[@realamerican8069]

Why tip?

[@benkraze3103]

because it's not a robot. Humans control them remotely.

[@realamerican8069]

@@benkraze3103 robot operators are salary.. stop it! Please 🙏

[@Savethepandabears]

This must take forever to get your food

[@marcuslinton310]

They are made for short distances, typically under a mile, but I see this place goes out 2 miles. These bots travel close or a bit over walking speed, probably around 4 miles an hour or so.

[@LovedBy3]

That’s neat!

[@bluescreenmod]

How is that a robot? More like an RC-Car. What is the point if you still need a person to drive it?

[@Jamie41yukon]

Because if its in a dangerous neighborhood it wont be a person being found under a bridge

[@bluescreenmod]

@@Jamie41yukon Yes and no, would you use expansive gear in a dangerous neighborhood which generates not enough money? Maybe. Until now this is a gimmic.

[@jason_v12345]

He said it in the video: reduces traffic and emissions.

[@benkraze3103]

To low the crime numbers of humans on humans.

[@willdavis6657]

They can never have this in fresno ca . Homeless and thieves and wreckless drivers will destroy them just like they destroy everything else

[@harmoneyes]

I guess this is perfect for all the Non tippers

[@trash-girl84]

RALF from Flight of the Navigator!! 😂🤣

[@tonyafromtexas]

That humans we can put out of work....

[@theuniversegalaxynba]

Now go find out what they do to the animals to get you pizza then .

[@emoney822]

Why do we have to tip a robot why do we have to tip a robot someone answer me

[@jason_v12345]

Because it's not a robot. It's a remote controlled shopping cart. It has a human operator.

[@benkraze3103]

Those robots controlled by workers a.k.a HUMANS

[@TxShoreDog84]

Me, the guy whos job it is to stop you from trying to ride on it or take the merchandise. Im whats to stop you!

[@TheTruth-dy8ze]

It’s a terrorist threat.

[@hulamunki]

Hate these
