Description

In this “Kim on a Whim” segment, Kim St. Onge dives into the absurdity of robot security guards rolling through downtown St. Louis during the Frozen Four weekend. With the city still hundreds of officers short, she questions whether these AI-powered machines—like “Romeo” and “Rad Dog”—can actually deter crime or are just expensive PR stunts. Kim highlights the unanswered questions: how much do they cost, are they bulletproof, and what data are they collecting? She slams the idea of replacing real cops with glorified vending machines on wheels, warning that without the ability to stop real threats, these robots are just waiting to get tagged, trashed, or jacked.
