Do you have any fandom that can get you talking (or writing fanfic and/or message board comments on)?

#FandomForRobots #storyclub

Do you have a favorite fictional robot or series/story that does robots well?

#FandomForRobots #storyclub

Last week one of my coworkers was telling me about Bill Gates' proposal that robots be taxed if they replace a job done by a human.

Which (of course) got me started rambling about taxation without representation and should we extend robots citizenship eventually?

... When my coworkers instead wanted to talk about whether there is any job we think robots can't do. 😂

So, #storyclub what say you? Is there a job safe from eventual robotic replacement?

(And yes, this was my attempt to use something that maybe could be binary, heh.)

This week's #storyclub pick is 'Fandom for Robots' by Vina Jie-Min Prasad which was published in Uncanny magazine. #FandomForRobots
