What does this mean for workers? Center for Democracy and Technology's move touches 2 jobs, which together employ about 259,000 people in the U.S. Across them, AI and robots already touch between 2h 13m (middle school special education teachers) and 2h 26m (secondary school special education teachers) 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.
Widespread means it is in broad, everyday use.
