Bad Bartender Bot
This Bad Bartender Bot video was posted by the Flickr user Squacco, showing that robot still have a long way to go and many improvements still needed to be made. This video shows the Bartender Bot failing to perform it's job as a successful bartender. Many things go wrong throughout the film, resulting in the robot falling apart. This goes to show that the making of robots have not yet become mastered by its creators.
Shown by the video, there are still many things wrong with this robot design. Nobody would want a robot that spills their drink or gets it wrong. Instead of helping the bar, or restaurant, this would in effect be hurting it. The robot would not only be lacking in helping to benefit, but creating a bad situation that someone would then have to fix. This would take even more time than if a human was operating the drink station. Also, with mixing up and spilling drinks, the bar or restaurant would begin receiving many complaints. This would downgrade the status of the place as whole and could lead to the loss of business. This loss of business would then lead to the loss of jobs. All this robot would be creating is a bad cycle of events, which could easily be avoided by not using this robot in service.
There are many things wrong with this robot design which means there is definitely room for improvements to be made. Although for this design, there are more improvements needed to be made than most. It is one thing to spill or mix up the drinks; this would probably be some sort of programming error that could be easily fixed. Added to this chaos, the robot is falling apart as well. This means that other than programming issues, there are also building issues. This goes to show that there are many things wrong with this design, and with all of these errors also helps prove that technology is still not up the level that people should be afraid of "robot taking over the world." Although this is an issue that should be watched as advancements are happening all the time, there is still a long way to go until this is made into reality.
