Walmart's NYC-based innovation center is experimenting with a cashier-less store concept called Project Kepler.
Project Kepler is in part aimed at creating a store that would feature no checkout lines or cashiers, but use 'computer vision' to detect which products customers leave the store with and then charge their accounts accordingly.
Amazon is also experimenting without cashiers. Roughly 3.5 million Americans operate cash registers for a living.

ReplyDeleteGreat! People will be able to shoplift faster.
ReplyDeleteAs Americans, We know this eliminates Jobs.
ReplyDeleteIf you encounter this, Do Not shop there.
Boycott it now, and put a stop to it.
And you all said it couldn't affect you, and that it wouldn't affect you... And here it comes... Are you all ready for robots to take your job???? No where are you un-educated pieces of shit going to work???
ReplyDeleteLike the North Pointe store already is?

ReplyDeleteThank GOD. They don't want to be there anyway. Just blank dazed and confused faces at the registers with attitudes.
