the robots are those 'dogs' in question.. some sort of use for pack-horses for teams etc... however the military rejected due to noise

I read that some of its creations cast an ''evil'' shadow over Google's sterling (cough, cough) reputation.

The dream of armies of Terminators lives on :1orglaugh
