機器人"自殺"?電影變成了現實?
Has the world just witnessed its first ever robot suicide?
全球首例機器人自殺事件發生了？Tedious housework was seemingly too much for one cleaning robot to take, when it apparently rebelled and decided to end it all.
瑣然無味的家務事對一個清潔機器人來說似乎夠了，它打算奮起反抗結束這樣的命運。The android was given the tiresome task of cleaning up some spilt cereal before it climbed on to a kitchen hotplate where it was destroyed, according to reports in Austria.
據奧地利的一則報道，主人交給了這個機器人一個無聊的工作：在廚房打掃早餐遺落的殘渣，機器人忍無可忍，爬到了電爐上把自己烤成了一堆灰燼。
It had reportedly grown weary of being forced to clean the same house every day and decided to become a martyr to the robot cause.
據報道，機器人已經厭倦了每天被迫清潔同一間房子，決定要爲機器人事業獻身。‘Somehow it seems to have reactivated itself and made its way along the work surface where it pushed a cooking pot out of the way and basically that was the end of it,’ explained fireman Helmut Kniewasser, who was called to tackle the blaze at Hinterstoder in Kirchdorf.
事故發生在克雷姆斯的欣特斯托德，一位叫Helmut Kniewasser的消防員被召到現場處理事故，他解釋說：“不知怎的它似乎自己把開關又打開了，走過了工作臺推開了鍋子，然後就沒有了。”‘It pretty quickly started to melt underneath and then stuck to the kitchen hotplate. It then caught fire. By the time we arrived, it was just a pile of ash.`
“它很快就從底部開始融化，之後便粘到了廚具上，然後就起火了。我們到那兒的時候只見一堆灰燼。”He added: ‘The entire building had to be evacuated and there was severe smoke damage particularly in the flat where the robot had been in use.
他又補充說：“整幢樓的人都必須疏散，特別是機器人所在的房間因爲自焚造成的煙霧損害嚴重。”‘It’s a mystery how it came to be activated and ended up making its way to the hotplate.
機器人是如何啓動開關，然後在爐子上燒死的原因還尚不明確。It took an hour to clean and make the building safe. The homeowner plans to sue the robot’s manufacturer.
消防員花了一個小時才把房子清潔乾淨並確保安全了，房主計劃起訴機器人的製造商。
