In 1970 there were 1.5 million UAW auto workers. Today there are 400k. source Yes, UAW membership isn't the only type of auto worker, yes there are other factors that cause auto decline besides robots. However, I challenge you to point to a modern large scale automotive manufacturing factory that doesn't use robots.
