It’s okay because as the radiation blasts away at the robots circuitry they’ll have to replace it. Then they could just replace it with a better robot every few years as technology improves. It’ll become exponentially more powerful. And by the end of it they’ll have a superpowered radioactive robot… that they’ve… used for slave labor… Huh. Maybe they should rethink this plan.
