OSHA requires [tagout](https://www.osha.gov/control-hazardous-energy) procedures but they aren’t always followed.
We probably should differentiate robots as back in 1979… vs. Robots as of today… backed by AI and to some degree autonomous.
THEY DREW FIRST BLOOD
It depends on your definition of robot, I’m sure there were industrial automata that killed thousands of people before that.
Ironically, robots and AI are less likely to kill an *individual* person today, but much more likely to kill humans *en-masse*.
They say it is the capitalist owners who take all the risk.
