11 pages of discussion on this and the robot replacement of humans... yet no one seems to have picked up the obvious PR hole in the EX CEOs statement.

-- it’s cheaper to buy a $35,000 robotic arm than it is to hire an employee who’s inefficient making $15 an hour bagging French fries

That is the same saying that there is no value in a PS4 console... which is broken, or that one human can run up stairs 1000x the speed of another... who is in a wheelchair.
He is comparing a 35k robotic arm to a worker who isn't doing his job, by the same logic you could say that same worker does a much better job than said robotic arm... when it's plugged out.
But everyone seemed to jump on the.... Robots replacing all jobs wagon instead, I guess it's more fun to talk about sci-fi?
