After laying off 100 of engineers, GM replaces 1,000 workers with 50 robots at flagship US Plant
General Motors has introduced 50 collaborative robots at its Michigan Factory Zero, reportedly leading to over 1,000 job eliminations. This move, aimed at cost-cutting and efficiency, sparks criticism from the United Auto Workers union, which views it as a threat to jobs. GM claims the robots support human workers, but the UAW president calls it a "fight for humanity" amid broader automation concerns in the industry.
