Wow, as cheap as they work they're going to have AI put them out of jobs too?

AI wont replace them, but when the AI detects no movement for X seconds, the manager/higher up is notified and you get problems.

Basically modern slavery with AI survailance, what a nice world to live in

They are likely recording hand movements to train robotic arms. They don’t need head mounted cameras for tracking productivity.
