What does this mean for workers? Serve Robotics's moves touch 2 jobs, which together employ about 478,000 people in the U.S. Across them, AI and robots already touch between 4h 18m (driver/sales workers) and 5h 6m (couriers and messengers) 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.
