I think the news here is that robots are NOT killing people. They seem to be MUCH safer than human involved industrial equipment. Anyone who has worked in a factory probably has a story of their co-worker being sucked into a planer or their skull caved in by a forklift. Not to mention the thousands dying of chronic illnesses. The average life expectancy of welders is 50-60 years. Every welder we replace with a robot is saving 20-30 years of human life.
With AI safety features we can only see the gains in human life growing. At least until the robot dogs with needles for teeth start hunting down people who read books or the justice drones start shooting protestors with exploding freedom rockets.
