The Soviets used robots in Chernobyl. The radiation was so intense that it makes the rubber tracks brittle and hard and it ceases to be rubber. Also, radiation fries electronics. The robots stopped working. Put a laptop near that reactor, and it'll soon BSOD. Liquid Nitrogen can be used but the heat capacity of water would be greater and its in plentiful supply.... its just getting it to the cores.
