Dubai Police are deploying a robot policeman, and the life-sized patrolman is straight out of the uncanny valley. The Dubai police force is hoping to replace a quarter of its human cops with droid cops by 2030. They won't ask you for leave, sick leave or maternity leave. Despite the fact that the droid looks like Jason Voorhees, by simply pressing its SOS button, it will be happy to connect you to real human cops. Then a Dubai officer scrolls through the options on the robot's touch screen.
