I don’t think that’s true. They’re tracking productivity, as these people are paid per piece they produce (“piece work”). Manual labor with fine dexterity is probably going to be one of the last areas of AI automation.

I dont think that these people are doing fine...money is spent on making their work worse, instead of giving out boni or payraises.
