A fearless robot is easy to break. A careful one is not.

THIS ROBOT DOES NOT FEAR DEATH, BUT IT STILL DIVES BEHIND A CAR WHEN THE BULLETS COME The cars are covered in bullet holes. The robots drop flat behind the wheels, lean out, fire, and then move to the next car. Everyone expected robots to walk straight into gunfire, because they feel nothing. That is how they look in every film: upright, slow, taking every hit. In a real fight that robot lasts a few seconds. A machine standing in the open is the easiest target on the field, and losing an expensive robot that fast makes no sense to anybody. So this one hides. Not out of fear, out of math. The longer it stays in one piece, the more it shoots and the less each mission costs. It was taught to survive because survival is efficient. That makes it more dangerous than the fearless version from the films. It is an enemy that feels nothing and still plays it safe. A fearless robot is easy to break. A careful one is not.
