    Tragic. I think we should have a moment of silence.

    Clickbait. In South Korea a robot accidentally fell six-and-a-half feet
    down a staircase. Nothing to do with suicide or AI.

    *******

    we will map your floorplan ??? That's a hint at the sophistication level.

    "Roomba falls down stairwell. News at 6"

    A mistake was made, when the map was prepared. By pulling the log
    from the robot, they'll figure it out.
