            Since when is that a requirement? Other types exist.

            You can use linkages and mechanics in automation too, not just fluids, pneumatics as well.

                Modern…? Why do you think it’s complex?

                They’ve been around since 1912.

        A computer or a set of instructions is handling it, instead of a human, saying it’s Ai or not instead is missing the entire point.

        You are saying one’s okay, but not the other? How would they be different?
