people aren't lazy......machines can do 10X the amount of work that a human can do and are about 98% consistent across the board.

i just see it as a marvel of technology.....but machines can only do so much.....i wouldn't trust them delivering a baby or something along that lines..

I do industrial automation protocol-based solutions, and it's downright amazing what these machines can do nowadays. And they are much more consistent than a human... You don't have to worry about going bankrupt from their pensions either.

Guess who engineers these robotics though? Yes, it's still humans!

Oh they're a lot more than 98% consistent. The problems arise when they are designed/built/programmed incorrectly at which point they become consistently wrong.
