Why technology can change this work

  • AI automatically drafts analyses, finds correlations and explains standard deviations
  • serial operations fit industrial robots
  • sensors and computer vision automate quality control
  • planning and maintenance are moving to predictive systems

What protects the occupation

  • choosing the right question and checking causality rather than correlation alone
  • equipment setup and non-standard fault resolution
  • production safety accountability
  • variable materials and low-volume processes
