Any time you use an automated tool it's considered a form of automation as it repeats a repetitive task.
But you think aspects of your job aren't repetitive enough to be replaced?
Running electrical lines?
Drilling holes for lines?
Hooking up a panel?
An outlet so far off the ground every so many feet?
You read electrical schematics to determine what goes where?
These are all forms of repetitive task which robots and computers are good at.
I don't say that to be an ass or shove it in your face. But you need to rethink your reality. Boston Dynamics does some neat work. But if you seen some of the automated learning algorithms I'm working on....
Yeah, that's all doable by robots in a perfect environment. Now try having robots doing that in a 40+ year old building and working around a production environment minimizing disruptions. Oh, and when it comes across a junction box that isn't wired to whatever the current spec happens to be and then needs to figure the whole thing out? Yeah, good luck with that.
mesyn191 seems to think the timeline for this stuff isn't 20+ years, honestly I'd say 20 years is being generous. The problem isn't the machines, the problem is the AI.
