It seems the ‘T-800’ model designation wasn’t just a clever bit of marketing wizardry after all. EngineAI’s humanoid robot, looking rather spiffing, was recently spotted on joint patrol with the local constabulary at a bustling tourist hotspot in Shenzhen, China. One can only presume its primary mission was to shield unsuspecting punters from the scourge of extortionately priced trinkets. The jury’s still out on whether its prime directive is truly to serve the public trust and protect the innocent, or simply to ensure everyone maintains a perfectly British, impeccably orderly queue.
