Oh, we're going to start with curling puns now, eh? Well, you can just sweep that aside in a hurry. I think you'll find our lack of tolerance on this to be right on the button.

Just so long as we avoid ice puns.

I'm afraid we've already slipped up on that.

2. Why are there no AI's on the street? There's apparently enough AI's in town to support the fighting rink, but the only ones we've ever seen out and about are in the cast.

A quick check has to me that Northampton has a population of just under 28,500. In today's comic we see 14 people besides Clinton on one very short section of street. 14 people would make up around 1/2000th of the population of the city and therefore no where near an accurate representation of the demographics of the city.
Likewise, the AI we have seen in the comic do not constitute an accurate representation of the AI demographics in Northampton. Bubbles, Punchbot and the other AI seem to be housed in specifically designed combat chassis. Meanwhile you have the likes of Corpsewitch who seem to embody the 50s/Robots film aesthetic with the stick thin arms. We have the Pintsize style AI, the small companion-types who presumably worked in a limited area such as an apartment.
Also, just because we don't see any AI in frame, doesn't mean they aren't there. We know that a great number of AnthroPCs reside in the Northampton area as evidenced by the party from when Marten and Faye moved into their current apartment, not to mention Winslow and Momo are and were a large tablet model and chibi model respectively. One can assume from that the a sizeable proportion of the AI population could still be running around in their original chassis, weaving in and out of the legs of the people on the streets.

....Not to mention that several of the apparent people could just be AIs in expensive chassis.
Kugai:
Slightly off topic here, but did Jeph just make a 'Hitchcock Cameo' in Panel 2? Check the shoulder patch. :-D
Whose to say that Brun isn't an Ocelots fan? ;)

Oh Clinton. Brun handled that pretty well, at least.
