It gets better. The only way that the big auto manufacturers, and all their sub tier supply partners, will be able to exist will be if they replace more and more of their workforce with robotics. Ford and GM discontinuing big chunks of their catalog isn't just a response to market trends. It also enables them to have fewer parts to produce, meaning fewer process to capture, meaning robotic solutions are easier to get to, and they can get way more mileage out of them.
Interesting point I hadn't thought of. Thanks.
