I can see a lot of fab shop work being automated but I don't think people respect how difficult it is to like, wire a building for electricity or heat or plumbing let alone something more complex like an industrial process.

Alot will be prefab. Yeah it’s difficult on-site but even if you can replace 1 or 2 out of 5 on-site jobs with a rentable machine companies will do it. It’s coming for all industries.

Example: They are currently building an extension to my kid’s school and I see the workers everyday. The other day I saw a guy operating a bobcat digging a trench, then in the afternoon, 3 guys laying cable in that trench. That could all be one guy supervising 2 machines.

Also it’s a prefab permanent building. A giant Lego basically. They put the walls and roof up in like a day.
