Ken, it's all tragic. It's no longer possible to over react.
Feels like everyone needs to find a way to put the climate at the top of every nation's agenda. I'll shut up now.

aahh, now i get it, Aaron, nice humble brag (and nice name, it's my given name)

Keith got here before me about Neil!

robots will be able to improvise and read your perspiration and temperature fluctuations and know how to respond to you. it's all just learned knowledge.

You can jam the drones' G.P.S.s; some could still use inertial navigation, but I don't know how well they do that, generally.

i'm not worried. robots will never be able to do on site finish carpentry.

if i OWNED the robot who did my job and i still got paid i would be cool with that.

im thinking energy pulses... magnets or something... or those laser pointers... ok. thats all i got.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:42pm

especially if there was fringe benefits (winky winky) in owning that robot.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:43pm
melinda:

I used to worry about the potential for drones spying on me through my windows, then I actually heard one when my neighbors were playing around with one and it was way too loud and annoying to be a spying device. But the technology will probably get better for stealth operations.

I look forward to robots doing the jobs that stultify and unbiggen the minds of the humans who do them now.

the time i had to hang into my septic tank to screw on a solids filter - a robot could do that and i'd be cool.

How much satisfaction can get get from a job you know a robot could do as well or better, or really doesn't need to get done at all? I've sometimes got as much satisfaction from work as from just staying at home and doing ad lib, but rarely.

Try to remember back to before you had to wake-up to an alarm most days;wasn't it much better?
