    I don’t think the ground robots are quite ready to navigate sense bush, swamps, cross rivers, etc., no.

    But the majority of the world’s population is easily reachable by flat and predictable terrain right now. And if it really can’t manage to get inside the habitat or attack it with anything else, you’ll be starved out and die off before the robot does.

      That’s a good question actually, how long could this thing walk around a city before it gets caught on something or wedged in a corner or otherwise disabled?

          The answer to that one is even known, and it’s “a very long time, but not long enough to be safe”. And all it has to do is follow a marked, probably charted road and not hit other cars.
