#2Looking at the severed parts, it doesn't seem like they'll live long. I wonder how long they'd survive after something like that.
It looks like something out of CockroachPunk 2077

Seriously, this playing with living organisms to augment their capabilities and make them do our bidding is a bit beyond my personal moral threshold. At this point isn't easier to miniaturize a robot cocroach?

I am unsure they really care how long it lasts especially when you create something like this.
As long it carries out it mission for a minute of two. Send it to some underwater fibre optic cable and use it as a depth charge to blow it up.
No more requirements for anchors.

It's much easier to plug into something perfected by millions of years of selective pressure.

The title says "hours-long diving" so at least a few hours i guess...

I hope they don't start bugging our homes.
