Maybe, but the software we can build can multiply one's human abilities.

One can feed a man a fish, or one can create a robot that finds the sustainable amount of fish to catch, cleans it with no harmful soaps, cooks it to a safely edible form, and serves it on a biodegradable stick.

Can someone make that please? Sounds doable.
