"Technology was a strike issue and one of the very last issues to be resolved,โ€ said Ted Pappageorge, the Culinary Workers Union's secretary-treasurer who led the teams that negotiated new five-year contracts, narrowly averting a historic strike at more than a dozen hotel-casinos on the Strip."

The thing is, once robots are good enough to replace the workers, the hotels won't care about the strike. So now 5 years from now, if the robots are good enough than the jobs are gone.
