Correct Response: C. Robots are best suited for precise repetitive tasks that do not require subtle thinking or dealing with unpredictable situations. Spot-welding body parts is a perfect and very common robotics manufacturing application. A robot does not suffer from eye damage or fatigue and it can execute precise uniform welds. Troubleshooting part failures (A) requires complex and adaptable reasoning, often dealing with unforeseen circumstances. Adding custom details (B) is a case-by-case procedure that is custom in nature and therefore not well suited for robotics. Final product inspection (D) needs to be performed by a human who can spot unforeseen problems.
