You could replace about five humans opening the discs with one machine.

That sounds both awesome and terrifying.

The terrifying part to me is how many people they must have had doing that boring task week after week.

Like sure, I don't want everyone to be jobless because the robots are taking over. But I am hugely in favor of the boring, repetitive tasks being automated away so people can work on more interesting things.
