What's happening currently/near-future in automation?

Not sure this is the correct sub, but I'm interested in learning what's currently happening in automation, or very near future (<2yr). For instance, Boston Dynamics has robots that can do warehouse work instead of humans - but that's far from being implemented "everywhere". There's also a robot that can cook fries at burger joints, but again that's not everywhere. So, what automation has actually happened recently, or is for real just around the bend?

Genetically engineered geniuses and the changes they will bring?

Assuming it will happen, and is already happening to some exent and will continue to develop much further in the future, including feedback loops (reinvesting genius in further developments of genius), what do you think? What are some of the changes, including the longterm, technologically, socially, philosophically, religiously, psychologically, politically, genetically, evolutionarily, and in other ways?

If you believe in eugenics then start with yourself first

Seriously be the change you want to see in the world, and prove to the rest of us that you can make unbiased rational decisions about this by not having children. I have no tolerance for eugenics and no one on this sub should. If that is what you believe then you have to prove it by never ever having kids. We don't need that disorder passed to the next generation.
