Bad Idea… NYC Replaced Cops with Robots 

They need to invent a robot DA that will actually prosecute criminals.

The year is 2030: You call NYPD after being robbed, but R2D2 shows up and just starts bleeping at you.

So if i get robbed i gotta count on a damn Roomba vacuum to help me 😂😂😂😂

To be fair, the other 400 pound cops on the force don’t move all that fast either.

nyc: replacing cops with robots and citizens with noncitizens

I swear, NYC is turning more dystopian by the day....

The robots aren't there to protect you. They're there to record you.

I'm surprised the robot wasn't robbed and stripped for parts

When you are getting stabbed but the robot records your death so it can get memed on

Classic. Pretending that you're doing something effective that's actually completely ineffective while simultaneously spending loads of taxpayers money and dislocating your shoulder patting yourself on the back in self-congratulation is what peak NYC politician performance looks like.

I’m convinced Ny has the dumbest mayor ever 😂😂

If the government is telling you, it’s for your convenience or your safety it’s not. It’s for their control.

Imagine getting robbed in the train station while yu hear “Danger Will Robinson!!!”

A complete joke from the beginning 🤣🤣🤣 A giant hand sanitizer dispenser with cameras and a panic button.

Whoever got the contract to make the robots made off like a bandit.

Eric Adams was acting like Robocop was joining the streets😂

I’m just amazed none of the robots were stolen or vandalized

THIS MAYOR IS A DISASTER 😮

What an intimidating machine. I can imagine criminals are shaking in their boots now.

Wasting money , violating rights , breaking their own laws seems like something New York is committed to .

What’s a bigger joke than the robot? Mayor Adams

This is comical. Like what did they expect? 🤣 In my entire 36 years of my entire life living in NYC, I’ve never seen such chaos and uptick in crime like I’m seeing now

Imagine expecting Robocop or a terminator, but instead we get a glorified Rooma.

Those things are gonna get pushed on to tracks faster then a innocent senior citizen 😅

the whole thing about privacy make no sense. they are in public space, and the subway train records everyone, the station security cam records, police records via bodycam. they just cite privacy as a concern instead of just admitting it was a waste of money that didn't work.

America is heading straight to the dystopian future all those movies and books have depicted 😅

Terminator's Skynet coming to life.

"Dead or alive, you're coming with me!"😂

It is basically a very expensive security camera. Maybe if you replace Alvin Bragg,Kathy Hochul, and Eric Adams with a robot NYC will be safer

"The robots did accomplish two things. Number one is they did waste alot of money." Lol love your videos brother

Cash, You're becoming a REAL journalist! We the Public need some of those to replace those talking heads pretending to be reporters.

Wait until the Robocop 2 version comes out.

Your transition from youtube realtor to NYC journalist is very successful. Good for you in your pivot. Valuable, roving journalist is going to be your big hit on youtube. And you deserve it! A lot of work. A lot of research. A lot of script writing. Awesome job!

Rampant crime in the winter. Can only imagine when the sweltering heat rolls in

Any loss of privacy is too much.

Im kind of surprised the criminals haven't vandalized the robots or hacked them to get into the cameras and systems to get all that info.

NYC is done

"World Class Subway System" 🤣🤣🤣

Rolling police vaccuum lmfao I’m dead 😂

Help, he stole by bag! Roomba: * detonates *

Just when you thought we were out of bad ideas.....Here we go again.

Robots!? What is this Robocop!?

Dalek as a police officer 😅 I hope there will be no need to call for the Doctor Who 😂

0:40 I love that they gave the robot a moment to speak "What do you have to say for yourself?" "BEEP BOOP!"

ED 209 is lurking on the horizon. "Throw down your weapon. You have 20 seconds to comply." 💣

EVERYTHING IS FINE NOTHING CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG

Those are called Clip Clops, and they are the enemy, but what's more disturbing is that the city has parking garages falling down, but they are spending tax money on robots instead.

They could go to a new one based on ED 209 from Robocop. Just make sure you take care of all the glitches.

Love the transaction from Real Estate Agent to Citizen Journalist. Excellent job.

Kenny Baker, a key part of the Star Wars saga as the actor who brought R2-D2 to life, has passed away. He was 81. Standing 3 feet 8 inches tall, Baker created Artoo's much-loved innocent yet adventurous personality from inside the droid, starting with 1977's A New Hope.

I didn't realize until now but you've essentially become a journalist. I've learned so much about New York and the politics there from this channel. Maybe you're not affiliated with a mainstream news organization but if you expanded into covering national news I might just watch your channel like reading the newspaper. But I guess expanding like that would be way more work for just one person. All the same I really enjoy this channel and feel assured of your credibility and sources.

Surprised it didn’t get tagged up 😅

This reminded me of a robot that was destroyed in the US after traveling in other countries. "A hitchhiking robot that successfully traveled around Germany, Canada and the Netherlands was destroyed Saturday in Philadelphia, just a few weeks into its U.S. journey."

NY won't survive this summer, it's going to get crazy

I'm a security guard that monitors about 50 cameras at the same time and hundreds of alarms at most of the places I've worked. Sometimes someone is doing something suspicious in a blind spot, and it'd be nice to have a robot move to the area. When I have to leave the desk, I can't monitor the vast majority of the complex anymore. When I get back, I have to review the camera footage to make sure nothing else happened somewhere else. Some places I also have to be checking people in and out of the building and make sure nobody sneaks in, so I can't even respond to suspicious activity unless it is actually an emergency, I just have to hope nothing bad is happening in that area until I see evidence that there is. And people get really mad when I miss something no matter how much stuff I was dealing with when it happened, or even when I say that none of the cameras were facing the direction of where the incident happened, or when I explain that I had to get up to do something else when the incident happened.

It would have been cool if it had been a bad ass Peter Weller RoboCop😂 But R2D2?🤖 😂😂😂

This world becomes more scary every day.

I would never go to New York. What a mess!

In New York City with RoboCop? You gotta be kidding me!

The mechancal hound from Fahrenheit 451 comes to mind.

Robocop 2024 edition

Nobody does it better! Thanks Cash, you're the very best at reporting ANYTHING. All others pale in comparison ❤

“Unlike the police vacuum” 😂😂😂😂

“You’ll never get me tin bucket!”

Great idea. No one in their right mind would want to do any policing in NYC. The mayor and city council has assured that. Robot does the job. Cops go for coffee. Everyone wins.

Keep up the great content!!! I come here everyday because of your coverage. Let's me know what really goes down in NYC more than what is shown on cable TV. Straight to the point and no B.S. 👌

I just love your content you always do an excellent job 😊

Most excellent work good sir! ❤

These robota remind me of something from Judge Dredd when RobSchneider hides in a garbage machine

😮will the robot have the live dog too. They need a robot as a mayor because this mayor is JUNK😂

"Looking like something right out of a Pixar movie" (Laughs in Dalek)

I swear to god they watched Robocop and thought "Hey thats a good idea".

The Boston Dynamic Robot Dog (Spot) inspired a few scifi shows already in the War of the Worlds (2020) TV show, those robot dogs was armed with projectile weapons and was task to hunt down humans both indoor and outdoor. same in Metalhead (Black Mirror) 2017.

That just sounds like china with extra steps xD

Amazing how the cops are hanging out in groups chatting and texting on their phones

Interesting as always. Thank you for your all hard work. I was surprised to see spot at the end. At first I was also scared of the robot, but I've gotten used to it. Hopefully, it'll be used for good and to try to help people rather than harm them. Have a nice day.

Everybody is so worried about privacy, but those same people get on social media and lay out their entire lives to the world. Makes no sense.

Benjamin Franklin once said: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

the general rule for recording is: where there is public access in such traditional public forums as a sidewalk or a park you are permitted to record anything in plain sight

Cash, l've been happy to see your more broad content about the city and neighborhoods, and not just apartments. Makes me feel like I'm still part of the city 🏢🏦🏥🏢

Thank you for covering this Jordan!!

I would definitely want a selfie with R2D2!

New York: we're running out of money! Also New York:

Cash love your vids, try to watch in between my busy wfh days lol

Benjamin Franklin said: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

that trains run on time dog whistle was wild bro

only just discovered your vlogs. been enjoying watching from Melbourne Australia

Great reporting

Literally at 15:18 as you say "creepy" look over your shoulder LMAO

New York wastes more money than I have ever seen!! Great video Cash!

Those dogs still make me think of that episode of Black Mirror

I think you needed a fleet of Rosie the Robot 🤖!😂 At least if things go wrong she can pull a glass of milk and warm cookies 🍪 out of her automatic door and make you forget all about the bad guys 😂🤣😂❣️

I Love this. I Love what you're doing.

"Weighs 400 lbs. and gets paid $9.00 an hour." Are you sure that's not the current members of the NYPD with how little crime they're actually preventing?🤣

Of your last 54 videos, just 5 were apartment tours. I really miss those; that's why I subscribed to this channel.

Good morning. Good to see you again.😊👍

Police vacuum, that made my day 😆

Major hospitals and saving clubs are using robots to help patient/customers. They are A.I., very friendly and helpful.

Seagate Technology uses these trashcan robots to patrol their parking lots. They read license plate numbers to make sure no one is trying to sneak into their buildings and steal technology. It was funny to see one run off the edge of the sidewalk and get a wheel stuck in the grass.

How exciting to have a drone that is able to break glass. To think about the rain of shards from 14 storys to the sidewalk below, perhaps not thought about at all.
