Musk said factory workers are vulnerable to AI. I assume that he is referring to pick and place assembly type jobs that go all the way to packaging, labeling, truck loading and maybe even AI transportation. I myself am a CNC machinist which is a high-tech trade skill. Even though CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control, there is a lot of “atom moving” involved throughout the processes. I think that my trade is safe...atleast till my working life is exhausted (hopefully 20 years).
“CNC machinist”
The CAD program could generate CNC programing.
CNC is eons away from being done by AI. Probably never. That was part of my work, so I am familiar.
Deburr your parts like real machinists used to do- that part ain’t done until a baby can play with it
