It's something Ray Kurzweil said in "The Singularity is Near" and no one believed him, that robots will stop being clumsy at some point, develop to resemble humans exactly in their movements and appearance, later surpass them and eventually we will evolve into a new race half humans, half robots, enhanced by the best traits of both...

Still doesn't make him a conductor It isn’t impressive. When the orchestra lost the tempo the robot had no way to know and put them right.
