I would be surprised if these robots were taking many jobs. Aren't they mostly piloted by people?

Second-hand info, but: I've heard humans only take control when the system flags that they're stuck.

		what I have heard is that they also summon the human operator input at all intersections / crosswalks / traffic signals.

Yes, by offshore teleop pilots from low wage countries. They are still taking local jobs.

Those kinds of robots should never be allowed on sidewalks.

In which country? People normally consider outsourcing to a cheaper country as taking jobs.
