Robot dogs: the dark dystopian rise
Original: Very good boys? The dark, dystopian rise of robot dogs | Arwa Mahwadi
Robot dogs are moving from novelty to widespread real-world use, and commentator Arwa Mahwadi argues their rise carries a dark, dystopian edge. Writing in the Guardian, she examines how quadruped robots are being deployed in policing, security and industry, raising concerns about surveillance, militarisation and the normalisation of machines once confined to science fiction.
Why now: Growing real-world deployment of robot dogs in policing and security has prompted renewed debate about their dystopian implications.
