I had this crazy dream last night. I got a baritone Uke in for some repairs. Cracked top, sides, and cracked top and back braces. It's ladder braced and there is no way I can reach through the small sound hole to get to the brace closest to the heal block. Last night I had a dream that I had a little robot that I inserted into the sound hole and it walked over to the brace, injected glue into it and even cleaned it up, and with it's little arms held it clamped in place. LOL!

Anyway, you know it's only a matter of time. :D

Yse , but after Amazon completely replaces it's human resources with robots and drones who will they be sending packages to?

As every financial crisis will show you, humans are still part of the equation. pizza

Let’s all hope that your robot’s developers have read Asimov, and appreciate the importance of the Three Laws. I don’t need that little bugger running around my house fully self aware, but with no ethical boundaries. If the robots do wipe us out, we can’t complain about a lack of warnings. Science fiction has been raising the red flag for decades.

Yep. Ol'Isaac was on to something seriously deep there. He really saw it coming.

LOL! Yes Asimov was a great thinker. I really can see the day though when Stew Mac sells little red robots. :D

Every AI developer should be forced to watch the movie Ex Machina. Scared the bejesus out of me. The Three Laws were not part of their programming, needless to say. But also, the developer was a horrible human being. Maybe an AI creation would be good natured, if it hung out with good people. I'm not willing to take that chance. Hard wire the Three Laws, gosh darn it.

If you are into this sort of thing, the series Picard on CBS Access is delving into fears regarding artificial life. And the protagonist is Jean Luc Picard, which is awesome.
