How can you call that a robot? It doesn't even run on electricity.
Hmm. What is the definition of robot, anyway? A lot of robots run on hydraulics, which in principle could be pumped and valved with no electricity. On the other hand, nobody calls a conveyor belt a robot regardless of how much stuff it moves or how many parts it has.
I stand corrected.
Do you? I actually don't know, haha!
It was an honest question.
Yeah, honestly I do. I knew incorrect information, spread it, and was replied to with a correction.
