Comment o’ the Week!

Robotics tip #314: Many English phrases that appear straightforward to humans are likely to confuse a robot. For example, never tell a robot (especially one that thinks you taste like prosciutto), “make me a sandwichâ€. The alternative phrasing, “make a sandwich for me†has a much higher survival rate for the requester.

Now all you have to do is make an AI that combines bacon and boobies…

Steve,
Congratulations. You should ask us all how much we love tree lobsters. Then you could just bask in all of our love.
So, a question about bacon boobie lobster sandwiches? Got it.
@Steve: Just make sure it’s not silly… ;)
@Steve:
So now a BLT sandwich is a bacon, lobster and t?t !
No, it’s a BLT with a side of T&A. ;-)

@Typo Knig: If it’s worth doing, I suppose it’s worth doing with bacon.
