Is This Anything?

Oh, yeah, brought to you by Indiana Unclaimed, presented by the Attorney General's Office here in Indiana, reuniting Hoosiers with over $1 million in unclaimed property every single week. Fast, easy, and free to search, indianunclaimed.gov.

Is this anything a Sheriff's Department in North Carolina is rolling out a humanoid robot that they plan to use for hostage negotiations? Here is the Sheriff, Bobby, breaking it down.

**Bobby** (0:28)
We could send a humanoid into that same situation and accomplish the same things. Hostage negotiation, breach the door, go inside of the house, do all the talk and the recording.
I can program it to do whatever I want to do. Hit buttons. As you saw, it started fighting. It started dancing. It talks. Any motion that I wanted to do, I can program it to do.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:51)
OK, can you program it to get me a fresh, cold brewski out of the beer fridge in the garage?
You got me sold if that's the case. I think this is something. I think that sounds pretty damn cool.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:03)
So to us, it does. But let's say you're a lunatic who's holding women and children hostage inside and they bring in a robot to talk to you. Does that piss you off?

**SPEAKER_1** (1:15)
Yeah, you're already pissed off. I think at that point, I think you're already a lunatic at that point. I was thinking about that, though. I was thinking about that. You're right.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:23)
Think about how mad you get when you call. Like if you've got an issue with your bank or something like that and you keep getting stuck with the AI bot, now you've got a gun to your head or a gun to somebody else's head. This is a horrible idea. Horrible idea. Somebody's going to get shot in the face.
It's The Hammer and Nigel Show.
