A prediction

Claude Sammut, from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Autonomous Systems in Sydney, Australia predicts that,
(B)y the year 2050, (engineers will) develop a team of fully autonomous robots that can win against the human world soccer champion team.
I'm not impressed. If they were playing England today, they'd win if they fielded a team comprised entirely of step ladders.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
