Posts on X feature videos of black four-legged robots with white sensors striding across grass. One account stated the machines represent how the nightmare starts once robots gain cameras, mobility and autonomy. Replies described the movement as almost alive and animal-like, with one user comparing it to the Black Mirror episode Metalhead. Other reactions called the footage nightmare fuel while some viewers said the robots looked cool enough to hug.
