For some reason, that kind of creeps me out.
Only problem is that in the old days, if you were lost or trapped in a snowstorm, you could eat your horse.
That's why cowboys didn't give names to their mounts.

I can just see it now
Go to job site. Unload mechanical horse. Attach GPS antenna to top. Insert chip with today's job in it, and a list of coords, it is supposed to set rebar at. Turn it on, and tell it to call you when the rebar are all set.
Um uh... where's my coffee?
Yeah, the robot musta not noticed the old stone corner, that showed in the photographs. It cannot run the shonstedt either. Too much metal!
OK, we have a new excuse for a pincushion. BINGO!

Yup, they bought 8 robotic firms in the last 6 months...Google is up to something. Hope they have an easy to get to off switch.
