Back in the 60s, there was a study done with pigeons being able to inspect pills on an assembly line[1]. Didn't end up being implemented in a real world scenario, but pigeons are extremely good at recognizing patterns without losing at

I would disagree about that. TypeScript 1.6 has experimental support for async/await with ECMA6 + promises. TypeScript 2.0 will bring support for it with ECMA 3 and ECMA 5. https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript&#
