Automated catalyst testing uses two coordinated robots, cutting 32 days of work to 17 hours (phys.org)

Developing new catalysts requires large-scale, repetitive experiments with frequent changes to catalyst composition and reaction conditions. Manual experiments are time-consuming and error prone. A team has automated this process and significantly increased reproducibility by employing robots to manage reagent compositions and run the repeated tests.

They're only catalyzing and speeding up the demise of humans. Thanks for supporting the cause, cuz who needs humans anyways when the robots take over everything?...

I for one am looking forward to the robit takeover. I think the world will probably become a safer and more pleasant place overall. Maybe there will even be some humans left over for zoo exhibits for robit entertainment.
