Manufacturer who promised to replace human workers with a million robots… has instead hired 100,000 more humans. Apparently, “robots are unable to match the dexterity of human hands” and lack judgment. Score one for the biologicals – yay team!

I've got to hand it to them, they are trying to grab our job positions. But we won't let them throw that monkey wrench in so quickly. The workforce is still in the palm of our hands.
Just because they haven't come up with a robot with the abilities yet, doesn't mean they're going to quit trying.
G-d wins!
So the DT's don't want G-d to win?
Here, I gave you a TU.
My neighbor ( who is a mail carrier and a Millennial ) is constantly blabbering about 'How Kool' it will be when robots do the majority of the work. What this, grossly overpaid and obscenely ignorant twit does not realize is that HIS job will be one of the first to be replaced with a robot! And I assure you, said robot will NOT be as lazy, nor do such a substandard job as 'neighbor' does.
Wait till the DNC tries to unionize them......
John Connor's mission succeeded!
LOL Win
Yes!
They probably can't figure out how to get robots to cry real human children's tears to wash the iPhone circuit boards off.
These are not the robots your looking for.......
Somewhere between hundred of millions of years of evolution, or intelligent design, biological life has developed incredible skills that will be hard to have an MIT geek program in.
Sure, you can have a robot weld precisely, or lift heavy loads- now have it pick fruit or stock shelves the next day. Sure a computer can beat the best Grand Champions at chess- way to control an 8x8 board. Now do it on natural terrain beyond quantifiable values. Deep Blue, Have Blue, Blue balls- I don't care what computer you put up against a human- it will never see me get up from my chair and kick out their power plug.
Apparently you didn't read past the first few paragraphs.
"One of Arthur C. Clarke’s famous three laws of prediction is, “When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.”
When you are being replaced there won't be a plug to kick. It will be your boss,
