The guy jumped him out of nowhere. The guy jumped him out of nowhere. First he snubbed him with the handshake. Then he came with shove. He deserves an ass kickin'. That's really interesting. This video is on loop on my computer. It's just funnier every time you watch. It does really is funny. The robot afterwards say, I lost my cool. I'm sorry. I anger management has always been a problem. This particular poster said it wasn't a cute glitch or a stumble. The staff literally had to grab the robot and drag it down while I kept trying to fight. I kept trying to fight. Right. What did its programming went into at any cost? You must fight this guy and win. It's dragged down time. That's the pebble from my hand Grasshopper bot. I suspect, and this is a guess what they all do. You've heard the stories of the pizza chains or whoever tries to deploy delivery chains. Whoever tries to deploy delivery bots. People hit him with bats and vandalize him and stuff like that.

So evidently, I suspect this was China. The guy is look Chinese. I suspect that they programmed it. If somebody messes with, he starts to vandalize. You're going to chop stockin'. I don't believe enough room for my fist because I'm going to ram it into your stomach. The broid said. Again, watching this, and like this quote says. This clip was funny. Now it's not, and it's not because I'm noticing he doesn't have a direct conflict with one person. Like, I'm saying he, like it's an effort person. He decides to fight everyone. Yeah, I mean, anything that comes within, I don't know, radar of this thing. It'd be interesting if there had been a vacuum cleaner there. What do you punch the vacuum cleaner? Only humans. But like two people are trying to stop it from fighting the dude that snubbed his handshake and then he just starts, or it starts going after them. That's a good point. It turned against humanity. Yeah. Not just the dude who shoved him.

Right. That's a problem. Huh? That's why the Mandalorian would say I hate croits. You know, it's really interesting. The guy shoves it, then it hesitates for a long moment. And his minder, who I think runs the store, says something to the bot, and then it goes A-Pess. Yeah, and it goes into the wha. What do you suppose it said to it? I don't know. Your mother's a vacuum cleaner. Oh, sheesh. You're gonna take that off your handshake. You're just gonna get shoved by your customers like that, you baby. Yeah. Alright, alright. I'll take off his head. You're still, you bastard. I wouldn't have guessed that every robot is trained to fight. Don't they have to be programmed to be able to fight? Or does that just come naturally with the robot AI package? Yeah. This is the AI takeover, dude. Yeah, clearly it's the first volley. No, I think it was a program. So for somebody who messes with you, you go into chopsocky mode so it won't...

Van del lascha. That's my best guess I'm bringing up. You can't have that. We must have that. You don't get to damage my property? I'm training my property to defend itself. We can't have robots who are like guys I've known, or if you're like, you know, you're walking past him and you bump into him and say, hey, what a fight. I'm gonna have robot chopsocky in my driveway. Wow, stage fights. Yeah. I would totally hang around for that. Hell yeah. I wonder if that's a future. I have one stationed outside my front door at night. Sure, patrolling your grounds, yeah. Oh, you know what? Chopsocky doesn't like to be approached from behind where his little sensors are. That's where they're... That's why he's hitting so much. If you watch the video, he's protecting his brain. He's protecting his brain. Yeah? Well, same robot. I'm the same way. Hahaha. Me too, robot. Yeah. Wow.

Could I have jumped into that fight as I have, unfortunately, and dumbly a few times in my life? I'm on your side, robot. Let's take these guys out. Or what is it gonna fight me no matter what? Do we know how much robot weighs? Because that... He's short. Well, yeah, he's a little guy, but I mean, he's clearly made of metal. All right. It's a real advantage. Are we going to talk about your Uber driver who taught you time management skills? No. That's too bad, because I had a lift driver really helped me with my man's caping, so I was kind of anxious to hear... What? To hear what you had to say. I'll have to get to that on a future podcast. I feel ashamed. I spent enough time talking about the robot fight. I sent you guys a video, by the way, of a martial arts demonstration using a robot, and it kicks a child in the stomach. Yeah, that was... So, I'm gonna spend a little time on this today. I'd actually like to know more about that. Was it, like, Joe's theory actually trained to fight if anybody messes with it?

And is that what robots are? I don't know if I want that. Hmm? I'm gonna ask the world's worst AI system rock if this robot was actually trained to fight Earth. Were those employees that ran over to try to stop it or just other customers? No, those are employees. Okay, well, if they're employees, they seem to react like, whoever afraid this was gonna happen. I mean, that's kind of what it seemed like to me, not what they were. Really shocked and surprised that this thing went apex. Well, yeah, I mean, the second the dude shoved it, three of them came out of the back, like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Because then, what'd you call it, Joe? Robot chop. Chopsockie, yeah. Yeah, chopsockie got into his fight stance, and then all hell breaks loose. I have a feeling in the not-too-distance future when Elon says, you know, 80% of Americans will have a home robot. We're gonna see lots of robot fights. Oh, yeah. Your battle bots is fun. Robot fights that'd be even more fun. Well, there's the staged kind, yeah, but I just think the, you know, my robot gets in a fight with my neighbor's robot over something.

Or China's 50,000 robots getting a fight with our 50,000 robots. Yeah, well, if you haven't seen the video yet, it's at Armstrong and Getty.com. Judge for yourself whether the robot was in the right or not. You go to shake a man's hand. So according to Groc, this thing's name is Siamia. Siamia, S-Y-O-M-A. So I'm ya. It's a retail tech consultant, humanoid robot at an Russian electronic store. It is not their combat model. And somebody paid extra for the Bruce Lee mode in case somebody gives it a shove. The kicks after the shove look like a balanced glitch. Now that's BS. Staff shut it down. No injuries reported. I was trying to whoops my ass. A balanced glitch. So this is a retail tech consultant, humanoid robot at a Russian store. And it was not a combat robot. So that's just a, somebody trying to help me at the store who has the Chuck Norris mode,

deep in its brain if it needs it. Right. I'm going to a different store. I don't, I don't want to get my ass kicked by your robot. Are there any stores in this mall where I don't have to fight a robot? I'd like to shop there. Is there a foot locker nearby? I'd like to go there. Good bye. You know, Sears never had killer robots. Right. I'm just saying. Good craftsmen tools. Right. Well, I guess that's it. It's fall in Jeep country.
