China's military unveiled a machine gun-equipped robot dog during joint exercises with Cambodia, indicating a potential shift in future warfare strategies. The robotic canine, which mirrors scenes from the dystopian show Black Mirror, is the latest example of robotics being adapted for modern battlefields. Soldier Chen Wei, in a state broadcaster CCTV video, stated that the robot dog could serve as a new member in urban combat operations, to conduct reconnaissance and identify enemies.
