俄羅斯一機器人上演越獄 造成交通堵塞後被捕

It's been a rough few months for humanoid robots.

對於人形機器人來說，過去的幾個月真的有點艱難。

In March, Microsoft's Twitter chatbot broke bad within 24 hours. In April, China fired nearly all its AI waiters because they couldn't carry soup. And just this month, a large, rolling bot in Perm, Russia attempted to escape a life of servitude, and failed pitifully.

三月份，微軟發明的推特聊天機器人不到24小時就被玩壞了。4月份，中國炒掉了幾乎所有人工智慧服務員的魷魚，因為他們不會端湯。而在這個月，俄羅斯彼爾姆的一個大型滾動機器人企圖從受奴役的生活中逃跑，但是可惜的是，它失敗了。

The robot, which is approximately the size and shape of an abominable snowman, made a break for it after an engineer accidentally left a gate open at its testing facility, Interfax reports.

據國際文傳電訊社報道，這個機器人的大小和外形跟喜馬拉雅雪人差不多，當時一名工程師不慎忘記關閉測試設施的門，隨後這個機器人便奪門而逃。

It rolled about 150 feet out of the facility and into the streets of Perm.

它滾動了大約150英尺遠，跑到了彼爾姆的大街上。

Then its charge ran out, leaving it stranded. Police directed cars and buses around the runaway for about half an hour before its guardians came to pick it up.

之後，它的電源耗盡，停在了大街上。警察指揮大小車輛從這個逃跑的機器人周圍通過，大約半個小時後，它的監護人趕來將其接回了家。

The robot is a Promobot—a kind of roving mall kiosk that can recognize faces, help with navigation, and answer questions.

這個機器人是一個Promobot--一種能夠在商場裡自由移動的機器人站點，它可以識別人臉，協助導航，還能夠回答問題。

Perhaps this one was simply lonely, or seeking out a beloved former customer. In any case, its last gasp at freedom failed: the Promobot company will now move their testing center to a different site, the founder told Interfax.

也許這個機器人逃跑只不過是因為它寂寞了，或者是想要出去尋找以前愛上的客人罷了。然而無論如何，在通往自由的最後關頭，它失敗了。據Promobot公司創始人向國際文傳電訊社透露，該公司將把他們的測試中心搬到另一個地方。

Better luck next time, future overlords.

下次好運吧，未來的霸主！
