The 11 best, worst, and weirdest robots of 2017

That's my summary anyway, and while I understand if you feel like I'm glossing over one or two important events, I would ask you to remember what those important events actually were. Best to concentrate on those bots, a least for a little while. Shitty robots will forever have a special place in my heart because they remind me of myself, a shitty human. YouTuber Simone Giertz has had this genre sewed up since 2016, but my personal favorite shit-bot this year was a grubby specimen that lives in a pizza box and uses facial recognition to shoot lasers into the eyes of anyone it sees. God bless the Knightscope K5, for it is truly a trailblazer in human-robot relations.
