Thank god they're stupid, can you imagine a smart robot that can think a billion times faster than us? It takes us a whole life to generate new knowledge (PhD) but it would take them just seconds. Now imagine all that knowledge accumulated in a couple of days, a week or a month. The last century alone has brought us exponential discoveries with all the technological advancements on our side.

No, we can't even comprehend.
