They had human drivers in South America that controlled them remotely. If one attacked you, it was either the human driver going agro, or just a problem with the latency of the camera -&amp;gt; cell network -&amp;gt; streamed to South America -&amp;gt; driver inputs command -&amp;gt; sent back to the US -&amp;gt; over the cell network -&amp;gt; back to the bot. And the cameras they have were pretty bad (the ordering app would show you the camera view when the bot was nearing its destination.)</text><parent_chain><item><author>bourgoin</author><text>A couple of years ago, I was attacked by a Kiwi bot near a UC campus. This is my story.&lt;p&gt;The bot and I were moving towards each other on a sidewalk, and when I came close it stopped, as they do when sensing an object in front of them. But there was an awkward moment as I tried to go around it and it repeatedly jerked forward an inch as its motor kicked on and off. Maybe I was walking around the very edge of its radius. In any case, my behavior must have triggered some pathfinding bug, because it turned and drove right into my legs, after which it stopped and sat stationary. Luckily they&amp;#x27;re small and move slowly so it wasn&amp;#x27;t a big deal, but that memory stuck with me. Articles about Tesla pathfinding issues always bring it back to the surface.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Difficult situation on campus: traffic jam of food delivery robots</title><url>https://twitter.com/seanhecht/status/1493432613628825600</url></story>

My wife got knocked into by one when we were standing in the plaza looking up something on her phone. (They&amp;#x27;re not little delivery robots. They&amp;#x27;re about five feet tall.)&lt;p&gt;Good thing she was confused by what happened, because she&amp;#x27;s also the type who would have knocked the robot over and asked me to shove it into traffic if she had her wits about her.</text><parent_chain><item><author>bourgoin</author><text>A couple of years ago, I was attacked by a Kiwi bot near a UC campus.
