Tasks that no robot will ever be capable of doing.....

Bullshitting- that is, recognizing truth and then being able to distort or corrupt it in a non-obvious fashion.

They cant cut n weld free hand in the field, nor can they engineer fixes for broken parts to re-manufacture in a machine shop. :wink:

Another example that’s already wrong: The computer will see you now

Stop bringing this up in random threads. If you must call him out on it, use the Pit (in fact, a Pit thread already exists). You will be warned if you do this again.

I don’t think a robot will really ever be able to get a joke.

Travel backwards in time.

Create a rock so big that it can’t be lifted, and then lift it.

Solve the Middle East crisis peacefully.

(Note that I’m replying only to the title; these aren’t exactly my own skills, just tasks I don’t think a robot will be able to do).

Goddammit, as soon as I hit “post,” I vaguely remembered that some robot has already (will have already?) traveled backward in time. What was the name of that robot? Hold on, lemme go check IMDB. I’ll be bahck.

Truthfully state ‘i am not a robot’.

Depends on your definition of ‘peacefully’. It could flood the atmosphere with mood-altering chemicals, transforming the whole region into one big hippy lovefest.

And yet I somehow completely missed this ongoing meta-joke until now.

My gosh, I just thought it was a funny board in-joke, like people make with Hal and sheep.

OH hey, there’s one robots won’t be able to do well, fuck sheep. I mean, sure you could make one to do it, but it wouldn’t be tender and loving.

Ewes aren’t looking for a relationship from a robot. They just want a lot of RAM.

Bah!
Joseph Weizenbaum’s Eliza (Doctor) program (circa 1965) was a simulation of a Rogerian psychotherapist, and was commonly reported to have functioned reasonably as such.

Or to use poisonous gases to poison their asses. :slight_smile:
