Will data center technicians be necessary in 2027? Or will data centers be fully automated and run with AI and robots?

I’m particularly interested in whether humans are necessary to rack and replace hardware.

I expect to judge this by looking at whether Google is hiring data center technicians, and whether those job descriptions mention racking hardware, knowledge of networking, and knowledge of troubleshooting. If Google doesnt exist or isn’t operating data centers anymore, I’ll look for an alternate data source.
