The New York Police Department is doing a two-month trial period with the K5 security robot patrolling a Times Square subway station at night, but not all subway riders feel safer. NEW YORK CITY – Subway riders shared mixed feelings about a police robot that started patrolling the Big Apple's busiest transit station in October. "I think it's OK -- whatever they can do to make us safer," Onassis told Fox News. "I mean look at the robot. It's like something from'Doctor Who.' I think it's cute."

Former cop and self-declared "geek" Eric Adams held a press conference in Times Square today to let the city know how much he loves police robots. New York City's mayor presided over a press conference alongside police officials to discuss a pair of pilots designed to increase the city's surveillance. "I've stated this from day one, even when I was on the campaign trail: I'm a computer geek. I believe that technology is here," the mayor said at the top of his remarks. "We can't be afraid of it, and as [NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell] stated, transparency is the key."

The use of robots in the food service industry is on the rise, from robotic steak-flippers to robotic bartenders. Certainly, advancements in robot technology have played a substantial role in its widespread adoption. However, inflation and rising labor costs have also played important roles. Regardless of the impetus for the shift, the introduction of robotics into restaurants will alter the landscape of the food service sector. The field of restaurant robotics focuses on the automation formerly performed by human workers.
