Is that even a surprise after he moved to Texas to get less worker protections?

Grisly robot injuries?!
Like bear robot or regular robots, just gravely wounded?

Gravely wounded?!
Like gravel on the road, or as in “like a grave”?

This is the best summary I could come up with:
As Tesla prepares to deliver its first Cybertrucks to customers, a new report paints a grisly picture of the Texas factory where the truck is being built, including a casting machine explosion and a robot allegedly goring a worker.
One incident in 2021 involved an engineer who approached a supposed shutdown robot arm but got clawed and pinned to the wall by the machine performing its programmed motions.
A witness who saw surveillance video said the explosion sent a ball of fire and smoke into the air, damaged the die, and curled up a door that seals the chamber.
In June, contractors installing metal grating for elevated walkways in the factory fell to the ground due to a lack of protective equipment.
It’s not the only time things fell from above: The Information reports incidents of air conditioning ducts, steel beams, and other building materials crashing to the ground near autoworkers.
Tesla has been accused of underreporting injuries and of failing to address hazards in an outdoor tent that was erected for the assembly line, incurring fines.
The original article contains 567 words, the summary contains 177 words. Saved 69%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Let’s see how long it takes for the first Teslemmings to arrive and post an article from one of their Shill Outlets how everything is Rainbow and Unicorns at Tesla and it’s just evil FUD

The good news is they have vastly overrated range and break in the rain

He probably does there was once a reddit post that liked to the job posting for “Internet influences” for him. I think that was about 5 years ago and if he did that then.

Apparently it’s actually evil robot unicorns, doling out grisly injuries with their razor sharp horns.
