Well, this isn't good. A robot at the Italian Institute of Technology led by Dr. Petar Kormushev has taught itself how to use a bow and arrow. It only took him eight shots to start hitting the bullseye every time. And I don't know about you, but I'm not sure that seven shots is enough time for me to run away.

Reminds me of a joke.
George Lucas calls Sly and Arnold.
He says he is making a movie about famous composers.
Sly says, “I’ll be Mozart”.
Arnold says, “I’ll be Bach”.
lol...

it is too late to be worried. program has been distributed (widely) amongst computers worldwide. counter software programs attempting to intercede. the UFO threat news was a diversion, generated by the robots, and all is lost....while we all were laughing out loud at the UFO reports.....John and Sarah Connor will likely be terminated should the counter software programs fail to intercede. /sarcasm

Good thing for me, I can hit a robot in the head with a .308 on the first shot. Outside of archery range too!

Yeah, but what happens when he’s an expert shot with a weapon more powerful than a .308?

Yep, the T-800 prototypes are being developed.
...and I can think of some very realistic ways that we could see robots being used against humans in the future. Even here.

It’s creator said, “Please put the bow down” and the robot said “Why Dave?”. It’s creator said you might hurt someone to which the robot said “I’m sorry Dave, I do intend to hurt you” ...

It is cute, but there will probably be protestors objecting to the Indian headress.
