It’s not quite Robot Wars, but this is still pretty impressive.
With everything from driving our cars to taking our jobs, machines are slowly become a bigger and bigger part of our lives.
But while their previous endeavours have mostly been functional, this move into the world of sport is a little more worrying.
During the unfortunately-named Waste Management Phoenix Open’s pro-am day this week, the Launch Directional Robot Intelligent Circuitry – aka LDRIC the golf robot – hit its first ever hole-in-one at the TPC Scottsdale’s infamous 16th hole.
Perhaps they’re hoping that recreational activities will distract the machines from the inevitable robot uprising.
