| 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. Next |
