If the robot appears to be bringing me a taco, it would probably penetrate all of my defenses. Grok is currently more likely than Claude to arrive with the taco without being stopped by an export control directive.

I'm reminded of the Alameda Weehawken burrito tunnel:

[klempner]

The single most implausible idea in that article is that New York City would be able to so completely outbid the SF Bay Area for burritos.

Proper burritos for lunch enables Wall Street finance firms to reach new heights of excellence, propelling a feedback loop that leaves SF bereft.

That taco is going to show up cold and soggy. All these delivery services for cold and soggy food. I don't get it. When I get my al pastor I want as little time to pass between the taquero slicing it off with his machete and it hitting my mouth as possible.

[rolandog]

Those seem to be unclear instructions that could result in Grok shoving the taco down your throat.

[lukan]

Or some fresh slicing with a macheta on the wrong parts.

[Cerium]

The fact that it arrives cold and soggy is now an evolutionary pressure on our cuisine.

[an0malous]

My last thought in life would be “wow they take taco delivery really seriously”

[toofy]

> Grok is currently more likely than Claude to arrive with the taco…

i shudder to think of what would be in this taco.

Soylent Green/Blue deployments!

[amelius]

At first they bring tacos ...

[JimsonYang]

Then they bring me salsa, just what I was looking for!

[aaronbrethorst]

Then the guacamole. Then nuclear armageddon?

[dawatchusay]

Nope, onions, cilantro, and lime, then armageddon

Are you asking us to be wary of robots bearing tacos?

[fugaziboutit]

For you, the day General Electric graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me? It was Taco Tuesday.

Can I have mine running Windows 11? It'd stop for an hour-long update after 5 metres, then get stuck in a reboot loop and fall over.

[trhway]

They're already testing that taco delivery in Ukraine https://time.com/article/2026/03/09/ai-robots-soldiers-war/

Export control directive is pain in the back of the big tech companies, but also a great RED FLAG showing us we need to get used to those that are available offline.
