Yes... and this needs not just advances in robotics, but really starts to call to question the entire scientific apparatus as it currently exists in the Western world.
Who "does" science and why? What are their incentives and the economic inputs and outputs of the process?
Science (of anything really breakthrough) generally doesn't have an immediate application or economic value, so .... replacing Physics grad students by robots accomplishes what, exactly?
