Could you imagine being a tech service worked getting ousted due to AI, then you puckup concrete drilling, only for robots to oust you again.

This machine does something called core drilling, which is difficult and dangerous for electricians to do. This isn't taking anyone's job anymore than a Phillips screwdriver.

In fact, sometimes electricians have to core drill into a concrete wall. Hopefully they make a machine for that soon.
