I actually thought a dedicated car would be a good solution. Of course as an additional car, not as a replacement for a passenger one. Then you could optimize the interior for these robots
Comment on In China, delivery robots now ride the subway to restock 7-Eleven stores
kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 2 months agoYeah. Just need to make sure that sensible restrictions are in place to prevent the creep into turning a public service into primarily a commercial one. Starts out only running during off hours, then running during active hours at a reduced rate, then it’s got dedicated cars for the robots, then it overflows into passenger cars… you see where it’s going. Best to set up guard rails before it’s a problem.

This is China, not the US. They’re not as greedy and disgusting.

Just because it’s the US doesn’t mean it’s not bigoted to generalize people, especially with such insulting and hateful generalizations. And Chinese companies are as motivated by capitalism as any company is, which means maximizing cost efficiency. Putting policies in place to protect other priorities for the public good is sensible no matter where you are.

I spoke about the country not the people. you cannot deny the fact the capitalist hell that is the US is greedy enough to ruin anything for money.
