Your statement is blatantly wrong and incredibly ignorant. You have no idea how mechanized industry works.

Making a robot precise enough to surpass "basic human work quality" is relatively easy to training some loving idiot to machine steel for 5 years because humans aren't that loving precise.

Take as an example a circle. Draw a geometrically perfect circle with just your hand and a pencil. On the first try.

Now do that for 23 hours a day, every day.

For 10 years.

I'm reasonably sure that a human can't do that. I'm positive, in fact, though you'll probably try and argue the point anyways.

But hey, guess what, a loving robot can do that. Face it, it doesn't take much for a robot to be more precise than a human.

While you are right ZombiLion, you're being a huge richard about it.

Although right now it's probably cheaper to have manual labor for hard-to-program-and-build-robots-for-tasks, like say, carve a piece of wood, this will probably be no longer valid in 15 years. Sure, robots make cars, because cars are huge and the companies behind them have huge amounts of investment money, but for smaller buisnesses it's just not feasable right now.

Don't worry, the new dynamic autopilot (Which is a python script some dude whipped up in five minutes) has that covered.

a decent fork lift is $12,900
that's without any actual robotics, the price would probably be double or more for automation
two decent muscular men is $8 an hour each

Here's an average forklift.

4,285 lb

Here's the strongest weight-lifters of all time.

The heaviest snatch of all time is 216.0 kg (476.2 lb), lifted by Antonio Krastev of Bulgaria in 1987. Leonid Taranenko of the (then) Soviet Union made the heaviest clean and jerk of all time, lifting 266.0 kg (586.4 lb) in 1988." [See source.]

I don't think two of the strongest men in the world could lift loving 2 AND A HALF TONS.

my bad, ten of them then, sure

Are you like intentionally misinterpreting what he is saying?

Forklift: $12 900
2 men to use it: $8/hour each

Autmated forklift: $30 000

You could have those men work for 1000 hours each before you recoup the cost of the autmated forklift. That is not calculating electricity bills and the digital mapping of your warehouse in.

EDIT: Just looked it up, automated forklifts cost about 5K/month to use (and that's coming from a website trying to sell them).

he seems to be in a blind rage, which is a reasonable excuse

What the forget is this stuff? A robot's "hand" does not tremble, you can literally bolt the loving tool into the robot "hand" (no more lost clamps post-surgery, yay), and you can program it to fit a specific human being. If the person is totally immobilized and you account for blood flow and other movements there is literally no reason why a human should be better than a robot.

First off, calm the forget down. This is about more than "trembling." The human body is too complicated to just leave to a robot. Would a robot be able to recognize what exactly to cut in a human body? Would it be able to distinguish different organs and recognize the problem if something went wrong mid surgery? Would a robot be able to duplicate human interaction and provide a sense of calm and security in patients? I've talked to many doctors and medical students, and most tell me the same thing. Robots may replace a surgeons hands, they may be fully integrated to work side by side with doctors, but they will never be able to fully replace a medical professional.

Alright, let me get this math down...
Ten people, at $8 dollars an hour.

8 x 10 = $80

Eighty bucks an hour for 10 men. Not too bad for a one-off shot, but if you're running a big company you need them working full-time, so assuming an 8 hour work day...

80 x 8 = $640

$640 dollars for 8 hours. Ouch, but you gotta get them boxes moving, right? And you're running a business, so you need these guys working 5 days a week, right?

640 x 5 = $3200

loving damn. $3200 dollars a week. Jesus Christ. Then you have to keep them working 49 weeks out of the 52 weeks in a year. Let's see how much the total is...

3200 x 49 = $156,800

AGH. forget. MY WALLET SCREAMED OUT IN PAIN.

And this is assuming you have the great luck to get 10 Olympic-class athletes to work in your stuffty shipping business. Maybe a forklift is a better investment...

This isn't counting the fact that a single man and a forklift can move much faster than 10 men, will get "injured" less, so to speak, and won't sue your ass or ask for healthcare etc. etc.

Taboo, you're a loving handicap.

Are you like intentionally misinterpreting what he is saying?

He suggested you just get two strong men than any forklift at all. Learn reading comprehension please.

He also corrected himself saying that it was TEN muscular men you needed to match a forklift.

Taboo, you're a loving handicap.

First off, calm the forget down.

i should have learned to recognize autism better, you don't know what a joke is?

[TheArmyGuy]

Are you seriously not picking up on his sarcastic reation to your blatant misreading?
You really think he genuinely suggested to use 10 workers.

ten Antonios to be specific
