LAS VEGAS — Propellers. Blinking lights. Whirring flywheels. Onboard cameras. Arrays of fancy sensors.
And this one boneheaded ass-bot that looks like some Chuck E. Cheese bullmess. But more on that later.

Oh good god, this thing was so annoying. It’s basically an Asimo-looking Chuck E. Cheese animatronic piece of blinking plastic. My Christmas tree had more AI. Whatever. On to the next one.
