Notes

- What types of industries use robots?

- How do robots make work more safe?
- How do robots allow for the extension or enhancement of tasks, or for a wider variety of tasks?
- The Geelong Advertiser refers to the “5 Ds”: jobs that are dangerous, dull, dirty, domestic and/or dexterous. Does this cover all robot jobs, or are there other categories of work that robots perform?
