According to recent Occupational Safety and Health Administration data, workers at Amazon fulfillment centers were seriously injured about twice as often as employees in other warehouses. To improve workplace safety, Amazon has been increasing its investment in robotic helpers to reduce injuries among its employees. With access granted for the first time ever, "Sunday Morning" correspondent David Pogue visited the company's secret technology facility near Seattle to observe some of the most advanced warehouse robots yet developed, and to experience how high-tech tools are being used to aid human workers.

Jobs never disappear, they simply change. Robots allow people to do work which is more fitting for a human. You can't convince me that flipping a hamburger all day, or pulling thorns out of a tuft of cotton, is a suitable job for a human. If you said 40 years ago that someone could make a career out of being a RU-vid personality, or that artists could depend on their passions for paying their bills, or that people could train for careers such as being a full-time masseuse, you would sound insane... I recognize that RU-vid didn't exist back then, but the point is that automation frees up our time to be spent on more engaging activities, so that we don't have to do the dull/mundane/and dangerous work anymore.

The warehouse workers are never going to do more fulfilling work just because robots are doing more things. Just because robots bring the items to them, it doesn't make their job easier or more skilled or doing thinking work. The robots are not allowing people to do more work that is "more fitting for a human". They still have to grab items at a fast paced and do very physically exhausting work. The robots aren't freeing people to do more intelligent work. They are just _changing the location_ of the unskilled and physically demanding work.

I've worked in factories as a RSI (repetitive strain injury) mitigation engineer for a while, and pretty much none of anything I just saw was very impressive. Other than the LIDAR guided bots, lots of assembly facilities across the US are using these same systems to move product around their facilities. What I did see is that the columns of bins in these places were at heights WAY outside of the limits we set for ourselves at the facility I work at. Nobody should ever have to reach up or bend down 100+ times a day to do their job. This should be obvious to anyone on their team.

In the mid 1970’s, the United Auto Workers union at most of Michigan’s automotive assembly plants. Sold the idea to its union members, that robots will assist in building the car. That their jobs are safe. As technology progressed through the decades. Fewer and fewer people were on the assembly line. More and more robots are being used. At one factory in Michigan there is a room in the middle of the plant. One person sits there watching monitors and listening for alarms. When an alarm sounds. The entire line stops and usually means a robot is stuck in one place. The operator goes to the robot with a rubber sledgehammer to force the robot arm to move. A couple of hard smacks to the arm joint. The robot can move. The operator returns to the middle room and hit the go button. Then waits for the next alarm.

And twice the national minimum wage is peanuts anymore. Not worth wrecking your body for. The number one way they're "working on the safety problem" is by trying to get human workers out of the equation altogether.

I work night shifts at an Amazon Delivery Center in Germany to cover my living expenses while pursuing my master's degree. It's a physically demanding job. Although managers and supervisors discuss safety during daily meetings, in reality, when there's pressure or machine failures causing delays, workers resort to extreme and dangerous measures not typically seen in the logistics industry. They exert intense pressure on us to work faster, often using the threat of monitoring through our Zebra gadgets, which transmit data to the central system. Despite being athletic, I've sustained injuries to my wrists, elbows, shoulders, and back after four months on the job. The excessive hours and stress inflicted by managers and supervisors have also taken a toll on my psychological well-being. At times, their behavior brings to mind scenes from slavery movies, where masters mercilessly whip their slaves.

Folks have always feared automation. Generally automation creates more jobs. ATM's allow banks to open more branches for instances, and they end up employing more folks. Some automation undoubtedly leads to folks losing jobs, especially in older industries. One thing most folks don't know about Amazon is that about 10-12% of their revenue is from 'renting' computers through Amazon Web Services (AWS). When folks talk about the cloud, a big part of that is AWS. AWS enables millions of businesses to grow and thrive without having to invest in expensive 'real' computing resources or data center space. Netflix hosts a huge portion of its infrastructure in Amazon's cloud, and so do millions of small businesses all over the world.

Thank you, Amazon robots for shipping out all of my gifts, as well as most of the gifts I sent out to people in need, as well as for their birthdays and for the holidays.
