General Motors has laid off more than 1,000 workers at its Factory ZERO assembly plant in Detroit while simultaneously introducing 50 AI-powered collaborative robots to the production line.
At the union’s 39th Constitutional Convention in Detroit, UAW President Shawn Fain warned, “We are in a fight for humanity.”
Fain argued AI should improve jobs and productivity rather than leave workers behind.

I'm still saying: if a machine replaces human jobs those machines should pay the income tax those lost jobs made. For rest of their existence.
This would make them think twice and pay back to society at the same time.
And ATMs in banks count as a machine also,same with AI chatbots and answering service.
