Talita wraps her arms around her friends, rests a cheek on top of Idrisah's head, and relaxes into the hug. Bip turns their webcam towards the the front loader, holding up its newly attached articulated hands. They reach out with them and gingerly grasp the group of women with the metal manipulators, who look down in surprise.

    im glad bip didn’t drive the frontloader toward them for a deeper hug, because that would have been hella risk for foot crushing and pinch points, lol. this is perfect

  14. I wonder if anyone has ever died from an AI hug.

    1. Someone, somewhere at sometime is going to earn that Darwin award.
