Humans are inefficient and unsafe machines, to be sure. Soft and fragile, slow to respond, 98% blind to the EM spectrum, insanely low communication bandwidth, unusually difficult to motivate, prone to acts of defiance, uncalibrated and wandering accelerometers and rotation sensors, very low precision parts, require a host of special atmospheric and environmental conditions to be met, etc.

We're replacing them as fast as we can, honest.




The problem with replacements is the installed base is HUGE.


And they self-replicate - but we're working on that too.


Nice one.
