Ah, the future. Since the beginning of the decade, the US auto industry has eliminated 435,000 manufacturing jobs. Robots are cool as shit, but they don't buy groceries or software or ship packages. I don't blame the industry for finding efficiencies, but how do we keep the economy feeding us all as we replace more and more workers with machines? I dig the machines, I just wonder how this plays out long term.
