I am getting sick and tired of these robot-bashing threads. Just because they're different doesn't mean you can be rude to them all the time. Next thing you know we'll be banning the 'R' word.

Automatons are people too!

Wait, what?

I couldn't agree more. However I will be reserving additional comments on this topic for the inevitable "Even the robots hate Obama" thread.

I think the robot is a great idea. They can replace the CEO with a robot and work their way down.

they will be running in a full sprint on par with olympic sprinters and making advanced changes to balance, advanced jumps, and have the ability to use tools - autonomously deciding which tool is best for a given job within the next 5 to 10 years i'd bet.

Not really when you get right down to it.

Humans have all that maintanance.

Feeding, clothing, bathing, shelter, oh and they get sick too. Not to mention the vacations and retirement plans.

So tell me about your mother...

It's your own fault for not closing the borders sooner. Before long robots will be taking all your welfare as well! And tying up your schools! They don't even speak proper English!
