Robots replace teachers in S. Korea

Heard about this story on NPR. Apparently faced with a teacher shortage, the government of South Korea is filling its classrooms with robotic teaching assistants. Kool. The NPR people were wondering what Americans are going to do for work as slowly but surely robotics and computers take human jobs.

Quotes

At a certain stage the realization strikes through that one must either live outside of society's bonds or die of absolute boredom. There is no future or freedom in the circumscribed life and the only other life is complete rejection of the rules. There is no longer room for the soldier of fortune or the gentleman adventurer who can live both within and outside of society. Today it is all or nothing. To save my own sanity I chose the nothing.
