The amount of times the shit breaks down combined with the slower speeds means it doesn’t really matter if they work 24/7 right now.
Yes, robots are coming, but amazon has been acting like they will be here tomorrow since it’s inception.
The reality is robots that cost less than people that at least do comparable work in the same time frame is still a decade or 2 away optimistically.
Amazon trying to force it doesn’t change that.
Amazon is to robots what meta is to vr. Dumping tons of money trying to force the ‘future’ today.
