    Lol Ive been preaching about the coming age of artificial intelligence for years. Robots will be far more advanced than us. We will transfer our "souls" to full robotic bodies. It will be the norm. Read about singularity. Ray Kurzweil. Our bodies are no longer useful. Its this realization the Mayans predicted we would have in 2012.

    This is from China. So clearly it will only be used to spy on Foxconn workers that are trying to steal some precious time from the company before they plummet to their death.
