This Incredible Hospital Robot Is Saving Lives. Also, I Hate It

This Incredible Hospital Robot Is Saving Lives. Also, I Hate It



"The whole circus is, in a word, bewildering. The staff still seems unsure what to make of Tug. Reactions I witness range from daaawing over its cuteness (the gentle bleeping, the slow-going, the politeness of stopping before pancaking people) to an unconvincingly restrained horror that the machines had suddenly become sentient. I grew up in Silicon Valley and write for WIRED and even I’m confused about it. The whole thing is just weird."
