Wow. That is ... too painful and true to life to really be funny at this point. But, ok, still funny.

To be fair, I meant something a little different -- something like -- learn how to be a robot priest who can get it to follow the desperate prayers of humans. And, like, how to unstick the robot arm when it accidentally punches through a wall. Etc.

Not that that is particularly comforting, in an existential sense. Maybe buys you a couple years till you have to pivot again.
