What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: NPR.
Hank LedgerFactory workers in India are being asked to wear GoPro cameras on the job, so the footage can teach robots to do the work instead.
Rosa TicksTHE EVIDENCE IS STRAPPED TO THEIR HEADS!
Rosa TicksEvery stitch, every tightened bolt, every sip of tea is on tape, and the robots are allegedly taking notes!
Hank LedgerEvery sip of tea.
Rosa TicksThe ultimate goal, according to NPR, is a robot that can take over the whole job, which means these workers are the star witnesses in their own replacement!
Hank LedgerSo they're filming the training video for the person who gets the job. And they didn't even get a producer credit.
Rosa TicksMy advice to every worker on camera is to do it badly, slowly, and with a very long lunch!
Hank LedgerThe robot will learn the long lunch first. It always does.
