Social Media Erupts After Robot Sinks Half-Court Shot At Olympics Half-Time Show

Robots are here to take our jobs. I repeat, robots are here to take our jobs.

Ok, well not really, but it was damn impressive to watch the robot go back-to-back sinking a three-pointer and a half-court shot without any guidance or assistance even moving up the floor.

The robot was rolled out during the half-time show of the USA – France matchup. It moved quite well on the floor too sinking both shots it took.

Hopefully Team USA was watching its form as they looked absolutely abysmal down the stretch and eventually losing 83-76 to France.

Social media definitely had their own thoughts on the whole situation that went down too!

 

Someone get that robot an American passport!
