More generally, these execs are talking their book as they're in a low margin capital intensive businesses whose future is entirely dependent on raising a bunch more money, so hype and insane claims are necessary for funding.

Позабыты хлопоты,
Остановлен бег,
Вкалывают роботы,
Счастлив человек!
Worries forgotten,
The treadmill doesn't run,
Robots are working,
Humans have fun!
