Self-replicating robots
 

"One of the dreams of both science fiction writers and practical robot builders has been realized, at least on a simple level: Cornell University researchers have created a machine that can build copies of itself. Admittedly the machine is just a proof of concept -- it performs no useful function except to self-replicate -- but the basic principle could be extended to create robots that could replicate or at least repair themselves while working in space or in hazardous environments"

granted they don't do much but it's a peak at the future.

what a fucking useless robot. I thought when it said self replicating that it meant this thing was some cool terminator liquid robot thing that split like a cell or atleast a robot that builds itself out of other stuff, i didn't know that the robots shape was a jinga tower. I was worried about robots taking over so much that I haven't used my other computer because it's more advance than this shitty one. I can stop worrying, I'm gonna start downloading porn again from my better computer.

Its just the beging LArciniega it will advance to a giant 300ft jinga tower and crush us all!

then i'll just pull out a peice and the whole thing will fall.
