TheOrcKing Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 From USA TODAYIs there a 'dark side' to Amazon drones and Google robots?Is there a 'dark side' to automation?http://usat.ly/1bkcsB1Well, of course technology is advancing everyday to the point of replacing human workers to do the same thing. Hell, there was an episode of The Twilight Zone back in 1967 about automation ultimately replacing the human work force called "The Brain Center at Whipple's".http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFgLVU-eKREHowever, the couterpoint to that is now you need human workers whom handle fixing the automatous contraptions of our own design....unless we come up with automated repair units but then who or what fixes those?
