This is a link post Turd-like magnetic robot slime
"Here - swallow this turd, it'll wriggle about inside you, which will probably be useful in some way."

Seriously though, if we can get a way to retrieve swallowed button cell batteries, or neodymium magnets, it'll be worth supressing the gag reflex.

This is a normal post Couldn't they at least make it a different colour?

This is a normal post why can't they coat the batteries in bitrex, presumably coule leave enough contact exposed so that they would still work

This is a normal post they do
Pretty sure our Duracell button batteries at home have Bitrex on them.

This is a normal post So...
you swallow the magnetic slime to catch the magnets, what do you swallow to catch the magnetic slime? Reminds me of a song...

This is a normal post I'd like more details on the robotics of this 'robot.'
The visible part of the article describes it as "Slime that can be controlled by a magnetic field" so IMO it is a glorified fish tank algae cleaning magnet, not a robot.

This is a normal post They're stretching the definition of robot.

This is a normal post With its malleable slimy form
- it'll at least be an easy stretch.

This is a normal post 'Scientists find plausible excuse to invent sex toy...'
'...after being caught after hours in the lab'.

The dog is reported to be okay.
