Imagine using all the recipes known to man to build a chef bot that can cook "both types of cuisine."

Or wait, maybe the implication is that the bot only made edible food before, and now it can make the other kind too?

In any compromise between food and poison, it is only death that can win. In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit.

Ayn Rand made a good point here as long as you exclude the context of what she considered good and evil.

For context, Ayn Rand's "good" includes unfettered capitalism, personal wealth, individualism, and oligarchy. Her "evil" includes industrial regulations, charity, social responsibility, and democracy. That certainly puts a different flavor on her statement, doesn't it?

It does. Here's my fav concise critique of capitalism:

Man's freedom is lacking if somebody else controls what he needs, for need may result in man's enslavement of man.
