Robots are coming for auto workers' jobs. Hyundai Motor revealed plans to use 30,000 humanoids across its factories by 2030. The announcement sent the company's shares rallying to record highs. But Hyundai's Korean labor union hit the brakes on the plan, warning in an internal letter that robots won't enter the workplace without union approval. The union said the robots would bring "employment shocks" to workers.
