RE: The Robots Are Coming! - If You Can't Beat Them Join Them
I can see the benefits, it would be wonderful used on humans who have lost limbs and enable them full capacity once again.
Loss of a labour force not so much, living in a third world country, still seeking to obtain quality education, it would render more unemployed than we have to contain already.
Pro's and Con's to everything in life, it will have to be weighed up carefully before implementation into different territories of the world.
Good thought provoking post @cryptogee
Yes the benefits for the disabled are amazing; if you go onto the Ekso site you'll see some inspiring stuff there.
I don't see how it will contribute to loss of labour, that's the whole point, is rather than replace the human workforce with robots, you augment them with cybernetics. I just see plenty of wins all round for this type of tech.
