Yes, I agree. Nevertheless, many elderly still need help. They don't all have children.

Whoa guys, it looks like robots may soon be taking over baseball as well. I have to admit, I'm sort of on the fence about this one. :neutral

Yes that's true on one hand, but on the other hand there's always room for glitches to occur.

Do you believe humans will be replaced by intelligence, if robots can ,cook,clean,drive,build, abd design. Yes robots already can design and do also write articles.at what point do we stop this.
A robot that can build ,can also fix .a robot that can perform surgery ,can diagnose.
Of course with the later the issue is input of the wrong things.tesla is in trouble.deficits for years,moody rating dropped.
A pause on driverless cars has been started by the makers.
No. Robots can help people, if designed right. For example, their are a lot of elderly in Japan, and few youngsters to care for them. Robots can potentially fill the gap.
Well,.. all I can say is that I ever had to have an operation, I would prefer it would be a human than a robot. I don't trust technology that much.
The problem you see is they can replace all human interaction.
Don't need to care for her,or him personaly,just buy a robot ,program it.
If you doubt people would do that see how people with wealth know less then their nanny about their kids.
I was just picturing in my head the scene that would unfold at the doctor's office. *insert robot voice.* "Alright, now open up your mouth and say awe." *raises stick* Me: "Uh no thanks buddy!" *runs away as fast as possible*
I have to admit, you do have a point there. Right now as I have seen firsthand how unreliable it can be, I just don't have a lot of faith in technology.
If my wife,parents,can't drive ,nor shop for themselves,a nursing home would have to be if I couldn't live with them.
I know a few things about geratrics.here.a place or two where the elderly who are not without help but have no family.
Assisted living facilities do these things.
We also have meals on wheels,the volunteer ambulance squad, the veterans council who will bus them from their front door to any va facilty,local or in wpb.
Of course more is needed but a robot grocery service,isn't needed .plenty of seniors do drive,and feed the ones who can't ,or help.
Nursing homes are ferociously expensive Jason. If all they need is groceries delivered, and they want to stay in their home.
Nursing homes are like $100,000 plus per year. How many can afford that?
They can't drive, what makes you think they don't need meds,can't move bowels ,without aids,yes home modification, and also inability to walk .
You are describing an invalid poorly.these that can't drive,or go to a bus to buy groceries won't be in a home getting grocerirs delivered,because they can't cook.
Paying for a robot to drive You to the store will cost you more then using a bus to do the same.you can order online .

All those do that in my town.I can run to two of them in no more then hour on foot each.
A robot isn't needed,when a person can be paid to drive ..
The CDC did a report on this topic. To prepare dinner its just walking a few steps to the freezer, lifting one light dinner out of the freezer, and putting that one dinner in the microwave. Shopping by bus is walking a long way to the bus stop, maybe crossing a crowded street to do so, riding a bus to the grocery store, walking around the aisles, and then trying to hold heavy bags of groceries in their arms on bus home. Apples and oranges.
Unless the robot is cheaper, and Social Security income is limited. Medicare part B, D, and Medigap take more of their checks each year. Medical inflation is way beyond the measly CPI adjust given them.
and well said jobless will take up any reduction of that price. hidden costs as sales taxes, and income tax local dinner.
not in all cases, i can walk to mine, my wife can too as she has ra, one can use a scooter to get there. the busses here have a special bus for the elderly, in fact the bus grid isn't even a government ran one but a non profit that charges nothing and also started as meeting the needs for the eldery and still do this. they will upon call come pick you up and take you to the places they go, often shopping centers.
one doesn't need a robot to do that.

COMMUNITY COACH
Our door-to-door transit system provides convenient transportation for eligible riders with no other means of transportation. Community Coach accommodates riders who use wheelchairs, walkers, canes, service animals and other mobility aids. Our licensed and insured drivers deliver clients to medical appointments,
grocery stores and other essential destinations — safely and securely.
To become a Community Coach rider, Senior Resource Association’s eligibility specialists will walk you through the process. Determining eligibility is an easy procedure, but required before riding. It is a shared-ride service so passengers should be prepared to make stops along the way to their destination.
Personal care attendants who accompany riders can travel at no cost, but they must have the same reservation as the passenger and register with our eligibility specialists.
As a demand-response service, Community Coach reservations are required and must be made in advance. Non-emergency medical visits take priority. Availability is on a first-come, first-served basis.
where that is all located at is all over as far as bus compound, I have read their home place, address shown , and also their main bus hub . I see the coaches all over
I'm glad that some places have non profits trying to help. May the Lord bless the helpers.
