Baxter

Its just insane to watch what can this robot actually do. But don't get it twisted, it has a better purpose than serving us coffee and passing the sugar. Baxter is a working "man", just like we. Maybe he even got the job you got laid off :)

Baxter – the first safe, flexible, affordable alternative to fixed automation. Companies globally have integrated Baxter into their workforce, and gained a competitive advantage. Baxter is a proven industrial automation solution for a wide range of tasks – from line loading and machine tending, to packaging and material handling.

Is this really a good thing if you think it through?

Companies might like Baxter better than us. Let's be honest, Baxter doesn't need holidays and won't moan in the morning even on Sundays:)
