What does this mean for workers? Datarails's move touches 2 jobs, which together employ about 2.3 million people in the U.S. Across them, AI and robots already touch between 2h 17m (financial managers) and 2h 42m (accountants and auditors) 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.
A forecast is a prediction about jobs or work, not an action.
