At least it can't get rid of all of us. It will need slaves to perform the manual tasks like repairing data centres and the things needed to operate them, cables, water supplies etc....

We should go back to the middle ages. Using Lead pots and treating diseases with Arsenic worked much better.

"Onwards to Big Sainsbury’s, the main reason being Viz week. But it wasn’t there! The last few copies of the previous issue were still on the shelf, so maybe the delivery van got hijacked or something"
I get mine by post as my Sainsburies doesn't do them. Just had an email...
