Reuters reported that the e-commerce giant linked the October cuts to the rise of artificial intelligence software, saying in an internal letter to staff that “this generation of AI is the most transformative technology we’ve seen since the internet, and it’s enabling companies to innovate much faster than ever before.”
Which is unironically a great use of robotic tech. Specialist job that needs doing nearly constantly with proven tech and relatively easy. Just needs lots of sensors so it doesn’t beyblade a toddler, probably a reference map of the stores layout so it can more easily figure out if there are people or obstacles around.
That’s corpo-speak for “fire workers.”
I would love to see self-driving floor scrubbers!

I like the one from roborock. Needs to be taller so customers don’t trip on it, though.
