Robot With Humans

On Twit's Tech News there was discussion about sharing work with robots, how working together the whole job is better done. Examples such as DeepBlue and the human player combining would always beat DeepBlue on its own.

Also chances to combine Roomba and a human to complete the hoovering job much quicker, each taking the parts of the work best suited to each.

It reminds me of when I worked with companies first introducing CNC machines and robot arms, there was no question of the machines working on their own, but working to extend the abilities of the worker.

So the ultimate goal of automation should be to work along with us, not replace us.
