This is not just another machine in the lab: it’s a new superpowered team member

And no sexual/racial prejudice. Oh wait; it might be programmed in.

it frees up time for the human researchers to think creatively
Definitely good news for all except lab technicians. Time was you could get kudos (and money) for skill and repeatability.

Despite the fact that the best dishwasher totally fails the Turing test, I'd say it qualifies as a robot. I'm easy that way, since I think my thermostat qualifies as one.

🤔

Imagine a...
' Automated Manufacturing Unit ' producing an ' Automated Car ' serviced by a ' Automated Garage '.
Add an ' Automated Chauffer & Automated Valet ' as Accessories.

Automated Plumbers, Miners, Doctors, Engineers, Scientists, Chefs, Cops, Lawyers, Judges, SportsStars, RockStars, Architects, Actors, News Reporters, Journalists, Armies, Presidents...
& EveryThing Et al.

Now What's Next?
🤔

*Note* - Replace " Man " with
" Humans " to make it a more rightfully gender equal statement.

Now What's Next?
Automated (or at least not requiring human thought or intervention)

Philospher: "You think you know what you are talking about but how do you know you think?"

Priest: "Not in this world but the next."

Politician; "Here is the answer to the question you should have asked."

Economist: "The model is correct, reality is at fault."
