Reply to comment by NhylX in Amazon's Scout robot appears to have made its last delivery by MicroSofty88

It'll work eventually. The robots need enough smarts / maneuverability to be able to avoid danger or outpace violent pedestrians.

As is the current units are too slow and passive because they can't assess their environment very well.

Uhhh. No. You dont want autonomous robots that are faster or stronger than humans in public settings.

Not stronger. And they would have to stay lightweight.

But faster would be fine fine if used at sensible times (i.e. to avoid danger itself or a person).
