Huh! We'll all be obsolete before you know it

ALthough I have to admit, it would be kind of cool to sit back and watch a machine make Kamiya's pheonix!

It's neat, but I don't think it will have much success with many models beyond basic complexity.

And the finished art will look, well, like a machine made it. There will be no emotional or human aspect to them.

I will be angred beyond a demons hellbound fury if this macine makes ryuzin 3.5 before I do. ( right now that looks likely)

The robots all have the red light on! We must destroy VIKI!

Whoops, wrong thing.

I think that robots doing origami is pretty neat, but there wont be any human touch to the stuff they fold.

(By that I mean mistakes and unclean folds.

)

yeah. it may be a 'perfect' model by mathematic and scientific standards, but it'll lack that human touch that gives the model its uniquness and life... i hope. hahaha! or we really are obsolete! well... except for designing and making new robots to replace us... :p

Yeah-we should be the ones folding robots, not the robots folding origami.
