Question 2

How fast do credit scores drop after robot-caused job loss?

Accepted Answer

Credit scores drop 75-110 points within 30 days of job loss from missed payments. By day 60, utilization spikes cause another 30-45 point drop. By day 90, collections can push scores below 400. Warehouse workers average a 127-point total drop.

Question 4

What is the breakeven cost for robots vs human workers?
