Question

It's prevalent to see low-wage jobs automated when the labor price increases. For example, the airline industry brought in the automated teller when unions negotiated higher wages for the tellers, thereby avoiding the higher salaries altogether. Some examples of automation include: McDonald's and other fast-food restaurants automate drink filling rather than pay for more labor. Perhaps the automation of the bartender is on the near horizon. Link to Automated Bartender. Children used to be hired to set bowling pins have been automated. Alarm clocks replaced the "knocker-ups." Telephone operators have been replaced. Find and provide an article about one specific task/service that has been automated due to the increased opportunity costs of higher labor costs. Please explain the task and why you think it's being automated. Please include the link to the article and give a summary of the change.
