Star Trek’s Next Series Is Breaking A Cardinal Rule Of Every Show So Far

We’re imagining simple service robots – the kind that handle physical labor like lifting, cleaning, or repairs. It’s surprising, considering Starfleet constantly sends crews into tight spaces to fix things manually, and often deals with hazardous materials. Given that the Federation is made up of incredibly advanced civilizations, it seems odd they still rely so much on human workers. With today’s rapid advances in automation and artificial intelligence, you’d expect to see much more capable robots doing these jobs by the 23rd century.
