PSA: Delivery robots went from odd to ordinary real fast...

I kept seeing these rolling boxes with cameras... didn't pay much attention before one stopped to let me cross. Then it hit me... they're just part of the scenery now. We're actually living with robots every day... kind of blows my mind when I think about it.

Wait what, it actually stopped for you? That's wild. @noah872 is right, we just accept this stuff now without even blinking.

A buddy of mine watched one of those delivery bots get stuck trying to go up a curb last week. It just kept beeping softly and turning its little wheels, like a confused turtle. Some guy in a suit finally came over, sighed, and just picked the whole thing up to move it. My friend said it was the most normal weird thing he'd seen all day.

That "part of the scenery" thing shows we get used to weird tech way too quickly.

My local grocery store replaced three cashiers with self-checkout robots last month.
