[QUOTE="SubPop79, post: 2079277, member: 50115"] Statements like "...the end of manual labor" just show how little people not doing the labor actually know about the labor involved. Honestly, I don't see anything like this becoming a reality in a next 100 years. The cost to make a robot, to the cost of maintainence and repair... If anything, you drivers will be the first to go in 20 years. What is that thing doing right now? 5 PPH? How would it break jams? How would it move a diverter? Sure it can pick up and set down a box, but can it actually make a wall? How would it know if there was a hazmat spill? Turning UPS hubs into automated assembly lines is much more realistic IMO.
