Hollywood has long depicted AI-integrated robots as destructive, oddly buff killing machines, but researchers Gabrael Levine and Selena Sun have hinted at a future where our AI overlords are actually more likely to be tiringly sarcastic assholes. The pair created a bipedal rolling robot integrated with GPT-4. When they asked the robot to perform basic tasks like driving around in a square, it dutifully complied, but had a word or two to say about it.

“Wow, a square, never done that before,” the sassy robot told its creators. “What cutting-edge geometry discoveries you’ve made.”

Later when asked to do 100 pushups, the robot replies “Alright math whizz, I’ll humor you” before commencing to dip up and down.
