In Response To: Re: Who needs slaves when you've got robots? (Forrest of B.org)

: I actually mentioned that at the very start of my post, but that then raises
: the further question: why do those other higher-tech civilizations need
: slaves, assuming they're high-tech enough to build robots too?

Just spitballing here, but what if those clients have some kind of cultural or political aversion to AI or robotics? The Pfhor themselves learned some lessons the hard way.

But the Pfhor found much that they were
unable to exploit, and they destroyed all
known traces of these technologies after a
foolhardy Pfhor scientist implanted a Jjaro
cybernetic junction into a Drinniol,
causing the most terrible and destructive
slave revolt in Pfhor history.
