  • Love how you guys are showing footage of the Optimus Robot that has nothing to do with this.
  • @FerKzrs
    No days off for a work-related injury. That's the most Elon Musk thing one will hear today.
  • @pops99
    This is one of the most disgusting hit pieces I’ve seen in a while! 2 years ago a manufacturing robot arm that the employee did not turn off /lock out swung around and hit the employee, hurting his hand. The injury has nothing to with Optimus, but hey don’t let reality stand in the way of a good story….
  • @jamiegaudet6008
    So who's the programmer that instilled the code for this robot to be able to even attack anyone?
  • @swamdom7763
    This happened two years ago and they’re just telling us? 🤯
  • @tygerlillee
    This happened in 2021, why all the media reporting it now? Hmmm?
  • @emmanyc
    No work days off? Wow. It’s safe to say they got no compensation or even therapy for the incident either. That’s insane.
  • @garyfromlondon
    This was not a malfunction of a robot. The Robotic machine helping to construct the cars was not turned off before a worker went to do maintainance. and he got struck by the machine
  • @hoytarchery5302
    It was a mechanical arm.... not a humanoid robot and it happened years ago. He was calibrating it to loft frames. He programed it wrong.
  • @matrox
    The Robot became even more aggressive and beligerent as the engineer attempted to escape the robots grasp! Rumors are the engineer called the Automated Worker a Robot and they become extremely aggressive when referred to as Robots! The proper term to be used is Automated Worker! The Robot was a DemocRat.
  • @jaysonb.6669
    You should've gave the robot union those health care benefits they were asking for 😂

    Robot attack is fiction. Fact: "The incident happened when an engineer started to work on three robot arms but didn’t realize that only two had been shut off, The Information reported. As he was working on a software update, the third robotic arm kept moving and “pinned the engineer against a surface.” The robot’s claw dug into the worker’s back and arm, leaving him with an open wound on his left hand. One of the other workers in the area pushed an emergency stop button and the engineer was able to get out of the grasp of the robot’s arm. The Information reported, citing two unnamed witnesses.

    My coworker forgot to latch a door at my factory so it slammed into my shoulder….I guess killer doors are a problem too
  • @gruffcube
    We really got killer robots before GTA 6.
  • @Don_668
    Happened in 2021…..😅and report at 2023
  • @Leshumquat
    That don't sound like a malfunction! If it snatched him up walking by that's a malfunction but it saw the engineer working on its people and reacted! This sounds like free will to me! He was protecting his own
