They play chess better than humans, they build better cars, they answer any question I care to pose, and now they are beating us at running Marathons.
When all Robots are Solar Powered, there will be very little for humans to do other than replace all agricultural land and woodland with solar panels and windmills, start pointless wars, and attempt to occupy other planets that wouldn't normally sustain human life.
The more our boffins create 'replacement humans', the more we become redundant. And when Robots become capable of reproducing themselves, we might as well give-up, and become their slaves.
The one thing that amused me the most in this video of Robot Racing (above), was watching the human runners all taking photos with their phones (0.43 secs). It's almost like saying "What's the point of US running, if THEY can do it faster, and without breaking-out into a sweat".
Robots can now mow our lawns, clean our pools, sweep our carpets, do our shopping, cook our meals, drive our cars, and even trade in shares and commodities for us. And I can guarantee that there are boffins everywhere who are, at this very minute, trying to make humans even more redundant.
Humans are in peril; we are no longer needed, other than to be looked-after by Robots. Otherwise they wouldn't know what to do with themselves; nor would we.
Inter-Robot wars maybe ?

Which begs the question as to why we are importing ever more sub seventy IQ people to our already overpopulated island.
Because we pay them to come.
Should there be a Robot Run with no people?
We do but why do we?
Have you seen Terminator " The Rise of the Machines" ? or AI . ?
You'd have to ask the 'All Immigrants Welcome' people that !
Yes. And I'm sure there will be very soon.
No, but it sounds awful.
Hmm ... remember Westworld with Yul Brynner?
Let me inject my own well-considered thoughts on the relationship between humans and automatons...
Run robot, run robot, run, run, run
Run robot, run robot, run, run, run
Bang, bang, bang, bang goes the farmer's gun
So run robot, run robot, run, run, run, run
Indeed Mo Farrah didn’t enter the UK legally…should he be “sent back”?
I don't know it. Yul Brynner for me was 'The King and I'.
When is the 'open season' ? The government should offer £1 per dead circuit board (a bit like they did with Squirrel's Tails).
