☆ Goodbye for Now to the Robot That (Sort Of) Patrolled New York’s Subway
  + stars: | 2024-02-02 | by ( Dana Rubinstein | Hurubie Meko | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
The New York Police Department robot sat motionless like a sad Wall-E on Friday morning, gathering dust inside an empty storefront within New York City’s busiest subway station. No longer were its cameras scanning straphangers traversing Times Square. No longer were subway riders pressing its help button, if ever they had. New York City has retired the robot, known as the Knightscope K5, from service inside the Times Square station. “The K5 Knightscope has completed its pilot in the NYC subway system,” a spokesman for the department said in an email.

☆ I am very sad for the NYPD's useless and purgatory-bound subway robot
  + stars: | 2024-02-02 | by ( Sophie Kleeman | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
But now the NYPD robot has been placed in purgatory — a barren shopfront — and I am no longer laughing. According to The New York Times, K5 has been removed from its post in the Times Square subway station, where it required constant guardianship from human police officers. "The robot for the police, or the police for the robot?" ⁦@danarubinstein⁩ and ⁦@HurubieMeko⁩ on the sad fate of the NYPD robot. Similarly, the NYPD told me that K5 "has completed its pilot deployment in the NYC subway system."

☆ 400-Pound N.Y.P.D. Robot Gets Tryout in Times Square Subway Station

“No bathroom breaks, no meal breaks.”The robot will begin its pilot on Friday night and spend two weeks mapping the station at Times Square. It will be accompanied by a human officer from midnight to 6 a.m. to introduce K5 to the public. The rollout of the new technology comes as the city’s subway stations are springing to life after a pandemic slump. Richard A. Davey, president of New York City Transit, said 4 million riders used the subway each day from Tuesday through Thursday, most likely making this the highest ridership week in three years. Mr. Adams, who once patrolled the subways as a transit cop, was elected on a promise to reduce crime without violating New Yorkers’ civil rights.
