Why is it programmed to kill boxes of peppers

For the same reason that someone decided that it would be a good idea to have machines be able to generate energy from organic material….

Yeah, let’s build robots that can feed on humans to recharge their batteries, no way that’d be a problem.

Horizon Zero Dawn showed us that this doesn't have any potential to be problematic...

And live on a world where you can defy physics mods "bullet time"

It's 로봇 크러쉬 [Robot Crusher] brand. They advertise this cooking process and must therefore kill boxes of peppers with prejudice and treat their structure with total disrespect.

I don't see where that was stated that it was programmed to do that. Not sure if dad joke or just really stupid person.
