Can't say it's shocking. Can see the newspapers jumping all over it. But at the end of the day he programmed it to kill him. it's not as if a home made robot has AI.
It's the sensible way to commit suicide if you really want to kill yourself and not looking for attention.

I think it would have been easier to use use the pistol without the robot.

Still, I know it's wrong but I did giggle a the plans from the internet part.
