What does this mean for workers? Better.com's move touches 2 jobs, which together employ about 439,000 people in the U.S. Across them, AI and robots already touch between 1h 34m (loan interviewers and clerks) and 1h 43m (loan officers) of a typical 8-hour shift. A single company's move is an early signal for these jobs, and the time cards show how far the change has spread nationally.
Rolling out means it is in use and spreading to more locations or teams.
