Atlas can “autonomously navigate,” meaning it can think for itself at a rudimentary level, which is enough processing power to cast paint-by-numbers reality shows like Big Brother.

So yeah, it probably could produce a masterwork like the brilliant Sharknado.
Exit question: How long before DOD sticks machine guns, rocket launchers and the capability of flight on this thing?
That’s a trick exit question, because I’m sure they’ve already drawn up plans to do all that and more. Like frickin’ lasers instead of machine guns.
