Get Humans to Design and Repair Robots

science and engineering to continue to bring humans more and more
benefits such as longer lives and more gadgets to play with.   We need
to combine this with a general naivete about how the world actually
works so that more and more technical functions can be carried out by
robots.

Paint spraying creates fumes which can be inhaled by humans and
therefore lawyers should sue any employer which exposes his worker to
such a hazardous environment.  This creates jobs for robots.  We want
most engineers to work on developing robots and most technicians to
work on repairing robots.

The remote parking train at O'Hare Airport is a perfect example.  The
trains run themselves and periodically go to a maintenance barn to have
humans perform repair and maintenance functions.  It looks like this
example has the memetic qualities to spread because many people come
through the O'Hare airport.  Even if you are only transferring from the
International Terminal to a Local-Flight terminal, you can see that
there is no "driver".  This example is bound to be copied many times over.
