You Can Get PAID $20 an Hour to Walk ROBOT DOGS?! (Seriously!)

🤖🐕 WOULD YOU WALK A ROBOT DOG FOR $20 AN HOUR?!

Forget walking real dogs. A San Francisco tech startup is offering people $20 an hour to take ROBOT DOGS for walks around the city. And somehow, that's not even the weirdest part of this story!

Artificial intelligence startup Dimensional advertised a job for people willing to spend four to six hours walking robotic dogs through San Francisco. No robotics experience required. Just a smartphone, comfortable shoes, and apparently the willingness to become a professional babysitter for Skynet's golden retriever.

But there's a catch! These robot dogs weigh approximately 33 pounds, and if one overheats or breaks down, YOU might have to carry it back to the office.

Yes, we've reached the point where technology is supposed to make our lives easier, but now humans are getting paid to take robots outside for exercise.

In this video, we're talking about this bizarre new job, why an AI company needs humans to walk its robots, and what this wonderfully ridiculous situation says about the future of artificial intelligence.

Is this the easiest $20 an hour you'll ever make, or just another example of Silicon Valley having more money than common sense?

💬 LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS: Would YOU take a job walking robot dogs for $20 an hour? And what would you do if your $2,000 robot dog decided to take a nap three miles from the office?
