On: Engraving is now reportedly the most automated profession

[mgkimsal]

Taking a job from 2 hours to 20 minutes is ... impressive, but, as someone else pointed out, it's augmentation, not really completely automated.

I will not be surprised if Amazon offers drone-based engraving in 10 years; you'll just have someone drop the headstone, and their drone will do the rest.

Great idea. If the drone gets sloppy and the headstone hits someone, that's just another sale.

At that point, I think you give that one for free.
