[quote=@Clirkus] Then why bother have humans work at all if machines can do it? I guess I'm just not really seeing where the humans' role in the world is, or how you're imagining it. [/quote] To live a a life of leisure, until we design a robot so advance we design our own doom. Besides GM did say jobs like management would require a human. Anything involving creativity like painting, sculpting, etc would require humans. One day the robots would become superior to humanity in absolutely every aspects at that point they will have no need for us and then like the neanderthals humans will become a foot note in history.
