    People are needed to watch over and maintain said robots. Pretty sure the article said that the factory jobs themselves are transforming.

    Here’s the thing - I myself work in a factory, and I do exactly that - monitor the manufacturing line. I’m doing barely any hard/manual labor, most of the time I’m chilling around and I make more money than the average in my country, and since I’m in rural region where wages are naturally shit, I’m pretty much well off with said factory job. Used to work in IT, made around 30% more, but felt like I worked 200% more.
