News Korean robot commits suicide

[KOPPE]

On June 26, the Gumi City Council announced that their administrative staff robot stopped responding after tumbling down a 2-meter high staircase last week. A city council official informed AFP news agency that witnesses saw the robot “spinning in one place as if something was wrong” before the fall. The cause of the accident remains under investigation.

Korean media have dubbed this the nation’s first “robot suicide,” pondering questions such as “Why would a diligent civil servant do this?” and “Is the job too demanding for a robot?”

Shitty robot breaks down, and stakeholders brazenly lie to get free advertising.

That's what our windows machines are trying to do when they froze,
spin the machine they run on in one place as if something was wrong then tumbling down a 2-meter high staircase

Couldn't the asian robot have had the decency to commit suicide where the asian men commit suicide?

Spoiler

Offing itself rather than spending its existence doing admin work. Relatable.

Since it's a robot wouldn't it be e-suicide?

Suicide they say

I say he was murdered

Robot saw one of its coworkers eating lunch and knew it was only a matter of time before they would try to eat him too, peaced out on his own terms.
