It's not literal slavery, rather what's often called 'a modern form of slavery' that is the unfortunate risk. People working for very low payment, they can barely live if it. Because of the tele operation, people will compete with a lot of peers across the world, hence the pressure on the salary. There is also a flip side, the even-poorer people get a chance to compete with the 'normal' poor and generate some income.
I believe there really is no way out of this direction of affairs. It's capatalism, free market at work.
Hopefully soon the machines become smart and cheap enough such that the poor can benefit as well. In the end anything can be automated, building and operating houses and infrastructure, and making food.
