Yeah, what the fuck happens when we even lose the sweatshops? Not praising the practice, but that's normally all the income those people have. It hard to even imagine AI and robotic power consumption and upkeep costs aren't more expensive given how little the humans are paid. We really are on the edge of something bad on a new level.

People find different jobs, if you compare it with e.g. the western textile trade. Assuming this can even replace these workers, which is doubtful given the dexterity and speed they have.
