Meta is testing robots to automate physical tasks in its data centers, which could replace up to 80% of some technicians’ workloads, signaling a shift in AI from software-based automation to physical labor displacement.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Deep Tech: Telecom & Connectivity.
