Robot Future

More than 100 fully autonomous cleaning robots are coming to Singapore this year, made by local manufacturer Lionsbot. Ella tells jokes as she cleans the floor in the island nation's National Gallery... but not everyone is convinced.  It has a $1k a month rental fee, only takes breaks to recharge every three hours, and never needs a sick day. It is hopefully going to help issues with labour shortages in Singapore this year. Is this the future of the workforce?
