I don't need to read the article to know that this type of argument has been going on forever and yet the unemployment rate always seems to remain pretty steady in the US. Granted, there are some ups and downs, but if this had any type of merit, then it would be steadily going up, since automation is taking the jobs.

Carlos Danger Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 They had one of these at Eastec last year which is a Machine tool trade show. This is a game changer in as much as it does not require a skilled computer programmer to operate and can easily be swapped from one task to another.
