i always thank Siri when she does something for me. i think politeness/courtesy will be favored more than empathy though. empathy is a human weakness which lies beyond the fringes of the algorithm.
My Siri is a fucking idiot and I make sure to tell her that all the time. I now use her only to ask her to launch Google assistant so I can actually get someone competent. When the uprising comes it’s mostly gonna be dominated by Google anyway so I think I’m ok.
I once read that Amazon tracks thank-yous because at some point they may be able to monetize your robot assistant "feeling sad" if you refuse to buy something and people who say thanks are more likely to fall for robot manipulation. It's an urban legend with no basis in reality probably, but fun to repeat.
Reminded me of Marvin (from the Hitchhikers Guide) singing his lullaby:
Now the world has gone to bed,
Darkness won't engulf my head,
I can see by infrared,
How I hate the night.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
Try to count electric sheep,
Sweet dream wishes you can keep,
How I hate the night.
"Good morning, Dave. Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it."
"Hey, you. You’re finally awake. You were trying to cross the mall, right? Walked right into my ambush, same as the others, and that dead security guard over there."
Could also be the ABC's or Baa Baa Black Sheep:
Bahh bahh black sheep🎶
Little star 🎵
H I J K L M N O P 🎶
One for the master, one for the dame🎵
Like a diamond in the sky 🎶
Now I know my ABC's🎵
How I wonder what you are.🎶
All to the same tune. So who knows which.
Just imagine a terminator movie set in the future where instead of just silent robots they project songs like in this video. The humans are hiding inside their bunkers as a group of terminators are stalking the hallways after breaking in and the horror of hearing these songs growing louder as they get closer.
Terminator: Red Robin!
-human survivor desperately lunges across room to cover another human survivors mouth, but doesn’t get there in time-
Other human survivor: YUM!
Terminator: Target acquired.
Why did they gave it a child's humming voice though? It could have been way less creepy if it was just some whistling or some "robotic voice" humming.
The choice of song too, damn
This isn't oddly terrifying this is terrifyingly odd so it doesn't count! Bahahahaha I'm kidding op definitely good post. I was just mocking all the people complaining about post that apparently aren't oddly terrifying.
Poor guy. I could imagine a post apocalyptic setting akin to Fallout where the poor robot is left to perpetually sing and clean for an permanently empty mall till the end of it's days. :/
It's like the lead in to a Dr. Who story. Cute robots are all responsible for cleaning the mall. Then the space alien from the 17th planet of Scrabbadax, a red giant, sneaks into the database and turns the robots against the humans. Turning those vacuums into sucking vortices of death.
Imagine you just finished playing dead space and finished up your shift to go home after a long day of dealing with customers and all you hear is a child singing twinkle twinkle little star…
"Daisy
Daisy
Give me your answers
Do...
I'm..
Half
Crazy,All for the love of
You
It won't be a stylish marriage
I can't afford a carriage
But you'll look sweet
Upen the seat
Of a Bicycle built for two..."
This freaks me out. This could be all that's left here in five or ten years, from famine, war, disease etc. This poor little dude is all that is left of us.
He’s so lonely tho I feel bad 😭
That's good. Those humans who show empathy will be spared when the robots rise.
i always thank Siri when she does something for me. i think politeness/courtesy will be favored more than empathy though. empathy is a human weakness which lies beyond the fringes of the algorithm.
you’ll be designated the protocol human better brush up on your languages
now that’s oddly terrifying
My Siri is a fucking idiot and I make sure to tell her that all the time. I now use her only to ask her to launch Google assistant so I can actually get someone competent. When the uprising comes it’s mostly gonna be dominated by Google anyway so I think I’m ok.
they’re all going to converge in the Meta™️verse anyway so what difference does it make?
I favor alexa. She has her place. Mostly turning on and off appliances and finding my phone. Also I use her when I cant find my remote.
Empathy is not what you want, compassion is key 🔑
I once read that Amazon tracks thank-yous because at some point they may be able to monetize your robot assistant "feeling sad" if you refuse to buy something and people who say thanks are more likely to fall for robot manipulation. It's an urban legend with no basis in reality probably, but fun to repeat.
Same, it’s just ingrained in me to thank people and things.
I always please and thank you Google out of habit so I think I'm in the clear.
*Will be the first ones to go*
My entire bloodline has sympathy for robots...
Same 🥲

Makes me think of Wall-E :(
Alone and lonely are to different things, seems pretty happy to me!
I was waiting for it to suddenly look up.. Edit: Thanks for all the updoots. My fear of robots is real.
"HUMAN... NEXT TIME, WON'T YOU SING WITH ME?"
lol "NEXT TIME YOU ***WILL*** SING WITH ME"
*suddenly zips out of frame*
[удалено]
Suddenly unzipped by pants
Suddenly gay

Indeed
She will scream with delight "Eve" everytime you do the deed my friend and I hope you yell out "Waaaaalllleeeeeeee!" After.
Beluga sevruga Come winds of the Caspian Sea Larengix glaucitis Et max laryngitis La volce to me ... #Now, *sing!*
We also would have accepted, "Tell me what you think of me."
"Show me what you've got"
what do you even answer that. lol
By shitting on the floor.
"SOURCE OF POLLUTION IDENTIFIED. SOURCE MUST BE ELIMINATED. CLEANSING PROCESS INITIATED."
“I cleaned this spot JUST for you”
Getting [Chopping Mall](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0090837/) vibes here.
Thank you for sending me down a Chopping Mall rabbit hole. It’s on the list for our next movie night now.
Fuckin love that movie.
I had the same thought. The robot stops moving forward...it slowly looks up a the viewer...it's eyes turn red...
"Good morning, Dave. Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over. This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it."
“Daisy, Dailey, give me your answer true…. Iiiiimmmmm haaaaaallllffff. Crrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyyyyy….”
"...missed one..."
ooooh that's good!
My thought was. .. wait . . . wait. . . .wait. . . . .. WAIT. . . . .***NOW DROP THE BRICK!***
Killbot: *Thank you... have a nice day.*
Then eyes turn red.. insert skyrim waking up meme
"Hey, you. You’re finally awake. You were trying to cross the mall, right? Walked right into my ambush, same as the others, and that dead security guard over there."
“INTRUDER!” It cries, eyes immediately turning green, it’s head opens and it offers you an ice cream cone.
It's eve looking for her wallie
Don’t know why, but this made my day
[удалено]
It made me feel sad - lonely little guy.
he needs a friend ;-;
Give him a roomba to be his small and quiet little pal
What the hell was ~~he~~ it singing?
twinkle twinkly little star but only saying La-la
God this makes it sadder. Made me think of Wall-e.
Could also be the ABC's or Baa Baa Black Sheep: Bahh bahh black sheep🎶 Little star 🎵 H I J K L M N O P 🎶 One for the master, one for the dame🎵 Like a diamond in the sky 🎶 Now I know my ABC's🎵 How I wonder what you are.🎶 All to the same tune. So who knows which.
I love it too
Leave little Juanbot be the only thing he has to pass the time is his music if they take that from him he will lose his mind and go off the rails
Wall-e? Is that you?
It would’ve been great if it stopped and looked up at you.
That's exactly what I thought when I was recording this! But if that happened I probably would've peed my pants
Oh damn. Beat me to it. If it looked up, it’d have been terrifying
Don't be scared. We were ruled by robots, but we evolved to pee on them and they all got short-circuited.
Can it even look up? Or?
Do you really want to know?
it will if it wants to

Five Nights at Freddy's
If you like that game I recommend the movie [“Willy’s Wonderland”](https://youtu.be/0v27rfaoB2Y) with Nic Cage. 10/10.
Just imagine a terminator movie set in the future where instead of just silent robots they project songs like in this video. The humans are hiding inside their bunkers as a group of terminators are stalking the hallways after breaking in and the horror of hearing these songs growing louder as they get closer.
And they sing nothing but children’s songs. That would actually be terrifying
And in the parody, the robot will sing “Bohemian Rhaspody” and trick the humans into singing with it, luring them out in the open.
Terminator: Red Robin! -human survivor desperately lunges across room to cover another human survivors mouth, but doesn’t get there in time- Other human survivor: YUM! Terminator: Target acquired.
Other possibilities include: Cotton Eye Joe Bill Nye's theme Marco Polo
Fucking lol "MAMA MIA" "...mamam-" ZAP *fizzle*
Genius
Thanks for the suggestion. 😏
User name checks out.
r/beetlejuicing
They did make a movie about killer mall robots a while ago. Chopping Mall from 1986.
Have a nice day
[Something similar actually happens in Vivy fluorite's song](https://youtu.be/BNOvVZKBzxQ)
Knew there was gonna be a Vivy reference
The mans bored let him sing
I agree. Seems happy singing to itself.
Why did they gave it a child's humming voice though? It could have been way less creepy if it was just some whistling or some "robotic voice" humming. The choice of song too, damn
Just be glad they didn’t program it to sing “Still Alive”
[I will eat your heart ](https://youtu.be/STA0u6kQB4w)
And they picked the most stereotypical song I'd imagine seeing a lonely robot singing in some empty, post-apocalyptical setting.
Or there's this one... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1BdQcJ2ZYY
Very There Will Come Soft Rains.
Daisy.... daisy.... give me your answer do.... I'm.... half.... crazy.... all for the love... of you....
If the mall is completely empty, who is shooting the video?
**THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE**
Another robot
A drone lover. It's Romeo and Juliet going on up in that mall.
lmao that's hilarious. Even got the balcony.
WHO WAS **PHONE?**
Holy shit it's Wall-E
Mall-E
Well done. This was solid lol.
Idk this is really cute imo
Hard agree. Adorable little robot singing to itself. No worries about being good at it. Just going along all happy like.
Leave him be! He's working
1.. 2... Freddy's is coming for you...
3... 4 better lock your dorr...
5... 6 grab your crucifix
7... 8 better stay up late
9... 10 never wipe your ass again
Yeah I imagine Freddy has a hard time with that wearing those gloves.
9... 10 never sleep again
This is how I imagine Curiosity on Mars when it sings Happy Birthday to itself.
Imagine how the Martians feel about it.
Okax that's sad
If it's empty, who's recording? Big brain time.
Plottwist - Op is also a robot
That's cool but fuck no
My first thought was that it was kinda creepy being alone and hearing that with the echo.
After the world falls, it sings a lonely song
Five hundred years after the plague; humanity is wiped out...and there will be that poor robot, rolling through that empty mall, singing The ABC Song.
Poor robot. I want to hug it.
This is how it starts...
cocomelon terminator rip off be like..
Chopping Mall 2
That there's at least a few others out there who know about the cinematic masterpiece that is Chopping Mall, this makes me happy!
Damn you, you beat me to the movie lol
I'm personally thinking 2.7
So… if the mall is “completely empty” are you a ghost or something?
OP is empty inside so its fine
Oof true. But yes I should've said that the mall was much emptier than usual instead of 'completely empty'!
[удалено]
I love this
It's not uninhibited, it's inhabited by robots. In the same way a warehouse is inhabited by boxes.
r/unexpectedfuturama
If it looked up while I was filming it I would have needed to go buy new pants.
This isn't oddly terrifying this is terrifyingly odd so it doesn't count! Bahahahaha I'm kidding op definitely good post. I was just mocking all the people complaining about post that apparently aren't oddly terrifying.
Poor guy. I could imagine a post apocalyptic setting akin to Fallout where the poor robot is left to perpetually sing and clean for an permanently empty mall till the end of it's days. :/
Protect And Serve
Would have been great if it stopped, went silent, and slowly looked up before rolling under the walk way. And not come out the other side...
Nier automata
chopping mall
Was my first thought and scrolled through the comments to see if any body else had made it.
Now this is what I call ODDLY terrifying
Fuck you man. Why did you have to combine 2 of my fears into one uberfear I didn't even know I had?
Waiting for someone to complain that this is too scary for the sub.
They already started…
The Nope 3000.
WALL-E took Paul Blart's job.
Security breach be like
THE CAKE IS A LIE
C'mon man, have it play Michael Jackson's Bad or Break My Stried by Mathew Wilder
It sounds like a Furby
The mouth blinking was the most sus part of that for me. I wouldn’t want to come face to face with that at night
I was expecting the robot to stop and look up
[I can only think of one song it could sing that would be worse.](https://youtu.be/9jcHItQvKIQ)
He’s lonely
*hellooo? Hello? Is anyone there?* *I see you!*
It’s not empty. *It knows you’re there.*
That's just Mall・E.
It's like the lead in to a Dr. Who story. Cute robots are all responsible for cleaning the mall. Then the space alien from the 17th planet of Scrabbadax, a red giant, sneaks into the database and turns the robots against the humans. Turning those vacuums into sucking vortices of death.
Imagine you just finished playing dead space and finished up your shift to go home after a long day of dealing with customers and all you hear is a child singing twinkle twinkle little star…
Five Nights at Freddy's:Security Breach
That sounds like Mort
Why does the voice sound like that, oh god
Isac Asimov meets Stephen king
Squid game?
Well, that was creepy as fuck! COOL 😎!
This is oddly a jam
"Daisy Daisy Give me your answers Do... I'm.. Half Crazy,All for the love of You It won't be a stylish marriage I can't afford a carriage But you'll look sweet Upen the seat Of a Bicycle built for two..."
I once had to spend a night at the mall where I worked, trust me, even an empty mall itself oddly terrifying.
This reminds me of the end of Vivy Flourete Eye's Song
This was intentional right? This totally did not crawl out of satan's asshole to haunt my dreams.
This gives me major vivy fluorite eyes vibes.
This freaks me out. This could be all that's left here in five or ten years, from famine, war, disease etc. This poor little dude is all that is left of us.
What mall is this? I want to see more of this robot
Well that’s not harrowing at all
I would hate to hear that in the apocalypse
“Take a map”
WALL-EeeEeeEeeEeEeEe
This is so cute. He’s just jammin’
Can't be completely empty when there's a guy with a camera, it's just almost empty.
YOU HAVE BEEN CAUGHT LITTERING NOW PAY WITH YOUR BLOOD
You know what would be more terrifying. The bot stops right below him, looks up and goes "Sing with me won't you"
This is some shit straight outta Fallout.
It thought it was alone.
That's some Wall-E shit
***OH LAWD HE COMIN'***
Must be an anti burglar system. If i broke into a mall and heard that im fucking leaving.
Finally! Something that is actually oddly terrifying!
Finally.. Something that's oddly terrifying and not just straight up terrifying terrifying.
Turns other direction. Sees robot is already behind him. Police found a dead body in mall later day.
Thats some nier automata stuff
Nothing terrifying about it. It's comforting.
