robotization
Replacing workers mechanically
Robotization is the process of converting work or operations to be performed by robots or automated systems.
It usually refers to industrial manufacturing: The robotization of the assembly line eliminated thousands of jobs.
The term can extend to any systematic automation that replaces human labor or judgment with mechanical processes.
