Albert, This is good news, to me, as there is a lot of work that humans do that is mind numbing and which should have been automated a long time ago. As long as the work is repetitive, people will be inventing a machine to do it. What caught my eye last year was a report which said that over 60% of the traffic on the web is non-human. I am sure you read it too. For those who are wondering about the non-humans, here is some insight to the wired world we live in. http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/12/welcome-to-the-internet-of-thingies-615-of-web-traffic-is-not-human/282309/ Mervyn
