Is there more to that quote that makes it make sense? Otherwise both the human and the dog are redundant as a pair as their purposes are circular and don't benefit the factory.
- kalleboo 6y agoThat's what makes it a joke.
- pedrovhb 6y agoI've heard it before as "The dog is there to make sure no one touches the equipment, and the man is there to feed the dog", may make a bit more sense.

- salawat 6y agoI heard it originally in reference to planes getting automated. The idea is that nobody would be comfortable riding a pilotless plane, so the pilot is hired on to assuage people's fears, but assigned a dog to keep him from messing with the automation. I assume the same dynamic is at play, but I find the entire thing to be riddled with hubris, and projective of industry for industry sake.
