Tudor Rickards’ Robotic Games (Grunge) by GM Jon

The  world of work is quietly shifting  Let the machines do the heavy lifting. When your brain seizes up in frustration Let a machine do the computation Why the concern if a robot’s pace Outruns that of the human race? Welcome to the revolution  It’s another step in evolution  I said … The  world of work is quietly shifting  Let the machines do the heavy lifting  At the first Robotic Games Came the first of human shames Giving humans a painful jolt  When a robot ran faster than Usain Bolt  Robots marching in formation An army to protect the nation Guided only by computer A frightening glimpse into the future Mirror mirror on the wall Who is the fastest of them all? Was it Trueman or Frank Tyson? Was it the Hoover or the Dyson Will we witness some time hence Robots in Iron Man events? Or when it comes to the final crunch Will robots find the winning punch? Ill-serviced by the selfish gene How shall we win against a machine? Maybe it’s going out of fashion But only we can show compassion Yes only we can show compassion.
