robots that make robots that make robots that make......

here are some scientists that have managed to make
robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make robots that make.....
you get the idea.

but these robots need cubelike modules equipped with microprocessors, sensors and electromagnets that selectively weaken and strengthen connections between modules.

yah like thats easy to find lying around.
also the microprocessors need a certain program and
be connected in exactly the right spot.

and these robots can't do anything else either.
in high school I made a suicidal robot. it could its own plug. and I didn't get a big news artical.

gee togo though life only to realize that your only purpose was to SELF-reproduce.
sad...
