Its impossible to make that much money with out exploiting the labour of workers

I mean speeding and tax evasion does make you an asshole. But it just seemed a weird thing for them to call out

In what country does breaking the law make you an asshole?

Yes, climate change can only be tackled of it requires no personal sacrifice from me. 🤡

That's obviously a false equivalence. Forklifts and manual pickers fulfil different roles in the warehouse. This technology would only be viable to the business if ot drastically increased the expectation on the pickers.

Forklifts also replace physical work. This headset wouldnt.

The reality will undoubtedly be the first one though, which is something straight from dystopian scifi. No company is going to spend all that money on AR headsets to make their worker's lives better.

Could the same tech not be applied to machines instead of humans? I dont see how this would make peoples lives easier. It would just increase the expectation of how much they pick.

Ive done warehouse work. Using technology to squeeze every inch of "productivity" from a human being rather than trying to meaningfully improve their lives is dystopian.

That's so dystopian

I guess I dont have to think about this for my loaf of bleached supermarket bread
