Every few weeks, it feels like, there's a new video from Boston Dynamics showing off their robot dancing or doing athletics that makes you wonder "will this robot soon be doing this salsa routine on a big pile of human skulls?"

Even in games of chess, you aren't really safe. But you probably shouldn't worry about the robot uprising just yet, as a robotic hot dog machine has clearly demonstrated. First, let's take a look at how the machine is supposed to work.

Now enjoy the hot dog robot failing miserably to perform its one task of shoving a sausage into a bun, then shoving that bun into a packet.
