That's just a Spot robot from Boston Dynamics with a coat of paint.

Did they have to make it look just like the one in Black Mirror?

That is just the form factor for quadraped robots now. Boston Dynamics had them before black mirror.

I know how that word is meant to be pronounced, but it is very difficult not to think the other.

There should be a word for the frustration of seeing the very obvious inevitability, but being unable to do anything about it.

Giving more precedence that birds aren’t real. Gotta fight tech with tech! 😉
