    The ED-209 boardroom scene from the 1987 film RoboCop, where the enforcement droid malfunctions after giving a man 20 seconds to comply.

    HN uses it purely as a joke reference in threads about autonomous weapons, robots and malfunctioning automation.

    1. @belterMay 2024· in “Brinc unveils new 911 response drone, can handle 25% of calls without officers”

      Unfortunately a little bug caused the drone to confuse the 911 caller with the possible criminal and led to this incident: this video Quite regrettable. We hope to fix it in the new Beta v2.34

    2. @pmoriartyAug 2017· in “The US Army is developing autonomous armored vehicles”

      "Friend-or-foe identification can boil down to "only targets shooting at me are hostile"." That reminds me of a classic scene from the original Robocop: this video

    3. @nostromoJun 2013· in “The 800 Pound Gorilla Amazon Tried to Kill is Google's Trojan Horse”

      I envision getting a text. "Your pizza is here. Use code 4025 to open locker #24." "You have 20 seconds to comply." ;-) this video

    4. @vincnetasJan 2020· in “Robot tanks: On patrol but not allowed to shoot”

      Mandatory "You have 20 seconds to comply." this video *That demo with generals probably looked like this :)
