Will robots beat all human records?

While robots like Lightning are excelling in specific physical tasks, it's unlikely they will beat all human records across the board. Robots are designed for particular functions and often lack the versatility, adaptability, and complex decision-making of humans in diverse situations. However, their progress in areas like speed and endurance is remarkable.
