It isn't a lack of knowing this that's the issue, people have been advocating for these things since the 90's. The problem is the people with power are the same people who control the robots and are therefore disincentivized to cost themselves money in exchange for allowing workers they don't give a fuck about to continue to live.
Do you think they have the self awareness to solve the problem before the situation potentially devolves into violence? I certainly hope so, but could go either way. The more people who have nothing to lose, the more inherent system volatility.
If the last 2 decades or so are anything to go by, those in power seem perfectly content to ride out the collapse banking on the fact that they have enough money to pay enough private security to keep themselves from getting [ CENSORED ].
