Workers who maintain our electric and gas infrastructure deliver essential services to millions of Californians and are critical to public safety and wildfire prevention. We need more human oversight of utilities, not less. We cannot allow major utility companies like PG&E to use artificial intelligence as an excuse to replace human experts. Outsourcing these highly skilled jobs to AI will only further deteriorate public and workplace safety.AI Verified (Feb 10, 2026)
