That's ma boy!!!

I just had to say somehting about this one. Apparently scientist in the UK have created robotic scientist named Adam. Coincidentally, my wife and I made an Adam that will someday know more than myself and perform all of my tasks with the greatest of ease. Before you ask, yes there is an Eve as well.
Adam can carry out up to 1,000 experiments each day, and was designed to investigate the function of genes in yeast cells - it has worked out the role of 12 of these genes. Biologists use the yeast cells to investigate biological systems because they are simple and easy to study. So does that mean all those lab assistant positions on criagslist can come down?
Not yet.
Duc Pham from the Manufacturing Engineering Centre at Cardiff University described the robot scientist as "a clever application of robotics and computer software". But, he added, "it's more like a junior lab assistant" than a scientist. "It will be a long time before computers can replace human scientists."
So it looks like it will be a while before the robots completely take over. It's not like they already make our cars or our food or drugs or LEGOs or bikes or sweep our streets or deliver mail. And we don't have robotic pets that can go crazy and attack us yet...Right?

I said it before and I'll say it again, "Be careful playing god, you might create some devils". (Okay, that's the first time I've ever said that but it sounds good and I mean it.)
