@sdw @octothorpe I had no idea before today that's how it worked... my brain exploded a bit, learning that, this morning!
@sdw love this so much.
@sdw ah yes, the famous Mechanical Punjabi
That's not creepy at all. /s
@sdw Link to the article https://gizmodo.com/amazon-reportedly-ditches-just-walk-out-grocery-stores-1851381116 if anyone wants to read it in full.
It has the wonderful phrase "Machine Learning data associates", which I guess sounds better than "outsourced cashier"
@sdw I assume that there was a plan to have AI cover the functionality. But it never met expectations. Also see: self driving.

I always assumed that was #Elon #Musk''s ultimate fallback plan for Fully Self-Driving #Tesla — Have a 1000 rats under the #hood (like in #Ratatouille) steer and drive the car because #AI is such a scam.
@rameshgupta @sdw All the self driving taxis have remote drivers for when they AI panics. AI doesn't completely humans. But it can reduce the number of required humans so software does all the easy stuff and the squishy wetware only does the hard bits.
@sdw would love to repost this because it’s funny! But it’s lacking alt text, could you add that?
@sdw
Thank you!
Come again!
