My factory union recently negotiated a clause that mandates human oversight for every automated quality check, and management resisted because robots already do it faster and more accurately. They argued that humans introduce inconsistency, but we argued that accountability matters more than speed. I've seen sorting robots misclassify parts under poor lighting, and when it happens, someone has to accept responsibility—machines can't be sued. Yet I also understand that keeping a person on every line defeats the purpose of automation, which is to free us from repetitive tasks. Where should we draw the line between trusting algorithms and needing a human to blame? Is it practical to demand full human oversight in every industrial automated process?
