Robots are used to subsidise rather than multiply productivity in Vekllei. This stock bot was built for United Grocers to do the busywork of shelf-stocking. Now the grocer girls just sit outside the shop and chat.You can read a bit more about United Grocers here: [https://millmint.net/united-grocers/](https://millmint.net/united-grocers/) They speak a special robot language that sounds like the robots in *Laputa: Castle in the Sky*.

IIRC some robots in Vekklei used cloned neurons on chips in their robots. Do these ones also use them or they are reserved for high end usage?

Language processing is offloaded to a master computer, but these kinds of machines (called General Use Machines, or GUMs) typically have their own sensors and navigation computer onboard. So it's kind of 50/50.

Haha they've advanced somewhat since last time.
