Investigating the legal frontier where robotics meets responsibility.
We document incidents, analyze liability frameworks, and advocate for victims of humanoid and AI-related injuries. As automation expands into every sector, understanding your rights has never been more critical.
Oklahoma City anchors one of the fastest-growing robotics and automation markets in the central United States. As the state capital and largest city (population 700,000+, metro area 1.4 million), OKC hosts significant warehouse operations, world-class aerospace manufacturing at Tinker Air Force Base, expanding oil and gas automation, and growing healthcare robotics deployment. Oklahoma City’s strategic location makes it a distribution hub for the central U.S., driving Amazon and other major logistics operators to establish fulfillment centers with extensive robotic systems. ...
Tulsa has emerged as a major hub for aerospace manufacturing, logistics automation, and energy sector robotics in the central United States. With a metro population of over 1 million and a heritage as a petroleum and manufacturing center, Tulsa workers face significant exposure to automated systems across multiple industries. From American Airlines’ massive maintenance facility to Amazon’s fulfillment center to HF Sinclair’s refinery operations, Tulsa’s economy increasingly relies on robotic systems—creating new categories of workplace injury risk. ...
Atlanta stands at the center of America’s warehouse automation revolution. The city is the only U.S. metro in the global top 10 for logistics automation, with four of the top six warehouse automation suppliers headquartered in the region. This concentration of robotics companies—combined with major Fortune 500 logistics operations from UPS, Home Depot, and Delta—has made Atlanta ground zero for both robotics innovation and robot-related workplace injuries. With the 2024 launch of RoboGeorgia and continued expansion of Amazon’s fulfillment network, metro Atlanta’s 118,000+ warehouse workers face growing exposure to autonomous mobile robots, industrial robot arms, and AI-driven automation systems. ...
Savannah has emerged as one of America’s top three distribution hubs, powered by the nation’s third-busiest container port and explosive growth in automated logistics infrastructure. The 2024 opening of Hyundai Motor Group’s $7.6 billion Metaplant—described as North America’s most heavily automated factory—brings advanced robotics including Boston Dynamics humanoid robots to the region. Combined with the Port of Savannah’s automation systems and surrounding warehouse operations, Savannah-area workers face unprecedented exposure to robotic hazards. ...
Suwanee has become the epicenter of warehouse robotics innovation in the United States. The city hosts Geekplus’s 40,000 square foot Innovation Center—where the global leader in mobile robot solutions demonstrates its technology to customers from across North America—as well as Mujin’s U.S. operations. This concentration of robotics research, development, and demonstration makes Suwanee a unique location where workers at innovation centers, testing facilities, and nearby warehouses deploying these technologies face emerging injury risks. ...
Austin is Texas’s technology capital and ground zero for both autonomous vehicle deployment and industrial robotics injuries. Waymo launched commercial robotaxi service in March 2025, making Austin one of the few U.S. cities with fully driverless ride-hailing. But the city’s most significant robotics injury exposure is at Tesla Gigafactory Texas, where a KUKA robot arm injured an engineer in November 2021—and where injury rates run 1 in 21 workers, substantially higher than industry averages. ...
Dallas-Fort Worth has become America’s largest inland distribution hub and a critical node in autonomous trucking development. The metroplex hosts 10+ Amazon fulfillment and sortation centers—nearly two-thirds of Texas’s Amazon facilities—along with Walmart’s next-generation robotics fulfillment centers in Lancaster. Research shows Amazon’s robotic fulfillment facilities have 54% higher serious injury rates than non-robotic facilities. The region also anchors one end of the nation’s first commercial driverless freight corridor, with Kodiak Robotics launching driverless operations in December 2024. ...
El Paso’s position as a major U.S.-Mexico border crossing has made it a critical hub for cross-border manufacturing and logistics. The region’s maquiladora industry, automotive supply chains, and distribution operations increasingly rely on robotic systems for assembly, material handling, and freight processing. Workers face exposure to automation hazards in environments where multinational supply chains create complex liability questions. El Paso’s Robotics Landscape Border Logistics and Distribution El Paso is one of the busiest inland ports in the United States, processing billions of dollars in cross-border trade annually. The logistics infrastructure supporting this trade increasingly relies on automation: ...
Fort Worth anchors the western side of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex—one of the nation’s largest logistics and distribution corridors. The region’s concentration of fulfillment centers, distribution facilities, aerospace manufacturing, and transportation infrastructure has driven rapid adoption of robotic systems. Workers in Fort Worth face growing exposure to autonomous mobile robots, robotic arm systems, and automated material handling equipment. Fort Worth’s Robotics Landscape Logistics and Distribution Hub The DFW metroplex hosts nearly two-thirds of Texas’s Amazon fulfillment centers, with Fort Worth and surrounding Tarrant County playing a critical role in the regional supply chain. ...
Fresno sits at the center of California’s Central Valley, a critical distribution hub connecting agricultural producers, manufacturers, and consumers across the western United States. The region’s logistics infrastructure has embraced automation to address labor shortages and meet growing e-commerce demand, creating new categories of workplace injury risk for Central Valley workers. Fresno’s Automation Landscape Distribution Hub for the West Fresno’s strategic position—roughly equidistant from Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Sacramento—has made it a prime location for regional distribution centers. Goods from the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Oakland flow through Fresno facilities before reaching consumers throughout California, Nevada, Arizona, and beyond. ...
