How can a robot take away my retirement? I wish I had a robot to do my work.

Having worked with robots, I’m not too worried about them replacing humans anytime soon.

In my estimation the painting robots I used to deal with were equal to about 1/3 of a painter. Their consistency was both an advantage and a disadvantage.

Robots will be licensed. And taxed.
No, it’s not in the Constitution.

Given the way congress comes up with schemes to collect taxes it wouldn't surprise me at all. I could see them estimating how much human equivelent work a robot does and figuring a wage and taxing that.

Why is this a bad thing? The role of technology over history is to reduce mankind’s labors so there is more leisure time.
To: TigerLikesRooster
I’d like to see a robot follow me around for just one day and get it all done, LOL!
That thing would short-circuit in two minutes. :)

Sorry, I don’t adapt Hollywood lefties’ world view as my own.

Got a good book to recommend? Say a 3rd gen language like C or better yet a 4th gen like Java? Thanks.
