I can see hordes of these things, fully outfitted with an arsenal of peace keeping tools, making sure no one misses curfew. I just hope I can get a job controlling one.
WHIRLY BLADES.

It's only a matter of time before someone puts an AI in one of those things, and gives it hands. Then we're all fucked forever.

I've already read about military procurement types being interested in these kind of robots, as drones for situations where UAVs cannot operate (mostly urban areas with significant cover).
I predict in 20 years, robodogs will be hunting down and eating pickpockets in the streets.

I vaguely remember a book with a rocketpropulsion cyborg guard dog in some cyberpunk setting, I just can't remember the book it was in. The concept terrifies me.

Yeah, Snow Crash and also Gibson's book Neuromancer has cyborg dogs and Count Zero had a robotic assassin dog which had nearly killed the character Turner.

I also haven't read catch-22 or Erewhon. As a Utopia/Dystopia fanboy this makes me sad as well. :(
