    This robotic bricklayer could build your future home
    SAM stands for semi-automated mason. SAM can lay 800 to 1,200 bricks a day — compared to a human's 300 to 500.

        humans still build and program robots. This isn't a loss of jobs, it is a change to better jobs. Millenials don't want to lay bricks.

        Question is: To celebrate technological advancements to current efficiency problems or decry the loss of jobs. Its a puzzle...

        Technology's not always good for development, this is an example of that. Humans replace by robots will increase unemployment and poverty.

        Not a bad idea. wonder how long it Takes 2 set up. Surely it can't be slapped together in a hurry. I bet normal laying is faster overall.

        Bet it can only be used on a flat, level surface. Industrial construction yes, not sure about tight places for homes. Still needs humans.
