They cannot wait to replace everyone with robots or algorithms.

Funny thing is, then they will have nobody but themselves to blame for failure. Cannot even blame the source of the robot or algorithm - you picked it.

Meh.. You're too optimistic. They'll have a contract company incharge for the robot or algorithm, with contract terms covering for failures and downsides resulting from it. They'll only be responsible for choosing the company and contract terms (or may be good lawyer).
