BigDog has been weaponized, with gigantic freaking bull horns. You remember that scary-as-hell walking military bot, whose owners videotaped themselves slo-mo kicking the crap out of him? Now BigDog will have revenge.

I’m actually very curious about who decided to put horns on Boston Dynamics’ quadrupedal robot, and whether they considered the possibility of a horned robot uprising. Also, if you haven’t seen this earlier video of BigDog Beta, I encourage you to do so — especially when the cameras catch him getting busy in the park with a couple of bystanders.
