    Talk to me when robots have less of a chance of falling than a human. Even when humans fall on each other there will be less physical harm than a machine falling on them. I don’t want to be near any machine that at any moment can collapse because of a software or mechanical glitch. Without real intelligence they are just RC cars that can do tricks. Keep the bots bolted to the ground so I can stay away from them.

    Woke up, checked my wallet, and SPAX80B is carrying my entire portfolio like an absolute BEAST 💪

    $SPAX80B is still insanely undervalued today and has incredible underlying tech. The market is getting ready to flip completely.

    Museum nerds are the first to lose their jobs to these.

    The best job for this robot is selling itself for 25k, then running away from home and repeating the sale over and over again.

    All fun and good until the company goes out of business in a few years and bricks your $25K robot
