FOTO Roboții polițiști au ieșit în stradă. Câtă autoritate au în China, Singapore și SUA • Newsweek România

Robots are increasingly being used in policing roles across various countries, but their authority remains limited compared to human officers. In China, traffic robots assist with monitoring and directing traffic but lack arrest powers. Singapore's GIBSON robot patrols the airport, aiding police without replacing them. The US tested the K5 robot in New York's subway for surveillance, but the program has ended. Dubai's robot serves as a public interface for reporting issues. Overall, while these robots enhance policing capabilities, they do not possess the authority to enforce laws independently.
