We live in the future now, so expect to see these types of stories more and more: An autonomous robot ESCAPED from its human overlords in Europe last week, and tried to make a run for it.  (???)

On Thursday, a Travelodge motel in England posted on social media after one of its ROOMBA VACUUMS escaped. It was cleaning the lobby when it disregarded the lip of the front door . . . ventured outside . . . and vanished.

They still hadn't found it by Friday morning, but they did track it down eventually. It was hiding under a hedge near the driveway out front.  (It's kinda like if the Will Smith movie "I, Robot" was made by Pixar...)
