The Gigantic Grocery Warehouses Built like Living Organisms 

My first ever job was in ocado. Fascinating place. The sheer ammount of automation was amazing. Lol when I was working there the bagging machine was just being tested out and workers were induvisually putting three bags on each tote by hand. I guess they are all reassigned somewhere else now.

*Wonderful technology* that will help to improve the competition in Internet shops. Such warehouses allow the different companies to compete on the same level, if all the warehouses are like that one.

I was with this guy until he said improving productivity means "human and robot working together in harmony for a very long time." This is just some straight PR-saving bullshit. The natural end-point of this trend is robots working...by themselves...with as few humans in the way as possible. Automation by definition means cutting out more and more people from your workforce.

“uses robots to deliver your food” *toilet paper in one basket* “Who likes to eat toilet paper?”

4:36 "human-robot working together in harmony for a very long time to come." lol that's not how this works.

Amazon will buy this company.

Automation is great, what we need to find out is how we can let everyone benefit from the work of robots. Not only companies and individual rich dudes should rake in the profits, everybody needs to get at least a small piece of the cake. Then we can bring automation to its full potential and spend our time with projects we actually love, rather than grinding bullshit jobs for a few bucks and an empty heart.

Why is the interview audio so much louder than the narrator?

0:10 "But have you ever wondered where all that food comes from?" A farm, maybe? I've never seen food grow in a warehouse.

They have built 2 monuments that in its 3rd update completely changed. The first 2 have spent millions to buy and maintain that equipment and now would be too costly to change to the more efficient 3rd design. These guys need to learn lean.

Great. Now can we use robots to grow and harvest organic food without poisonous pesticides and fertilizers?

When humans have been removed from the economy then no economy, how can corporates not realise this?

why order online? dont you wanna go to the supermarket or fresh market and be able to have the freedom of picking the items up yourself? being able to choose and feel them before you put them in your cart? not everything has to be done online you know

I feel sorry for that dude, he took one hell of a beating from the ugly stick.

Where UK throws out all that plastic?

There goes the beginning of the end of the order selector.

Ins ecosystem?

This is extremely inefficient. Amazon has designed much better efficient warehouses that store a lot more and doesn't get "clogged" as easily.

RIP Human Jobs

This is awsome

What happens when the power goes out? Like the human body I hope it does not have a Brain Aneurysm.

another robot hand designed as a human hand.... C'mon ppl! get rid of the pinkie and put another thumb on that side... two thumbs and three fingers on each hand? you know that would be more useful. and btw how did we evolve out of a prehensile tail???? Where's the advantage of not having one of those?

How do you feed the population when there is a serious disaster and the power is out?

This is good for everyone in the long term but short term it’s going to cause an economic depression unless laws are changed to prevent it.

We love and cherish ground breaking technology without thinking the impact on the very society we live in

«Factorio» in real life

Lol how hard is it to go to the grocery store

Share the wealth

Grocery growing should b all robotic electric solar nanotech AI fast agrobotica agriculture, stand with the farmers .

Soon there won't be any job left & there won't be any buyers for these Robot firm to sell their product .To earn money first you need to generate money for the buyers

world's largest online-only grocery retailer, LOL. not even the top 20

INS ECOSYSTEM .. look it up

Slower than humans and cost way more while being ineffective.

crazy

Regarding jobs: With great $ power, comes great responsability. We can no longer have such low taxes on world owning business companies.

I HOPE HE AND HIS ENTIRE FAMILY NEVER VISIT A PHYSICAL STORES AGAIN. THINK OF HOW TECHNOLOGY BRINGING PEOPLE APART NOWADAY

I see unemployment

Only an idiot does purchase their food where they don't pick out the food themselves. It's about 12 quality.

Digitalisierung

It is much more efficient to hire humans in the warehouse and spend only fraction of investment in this robotic warehouse to experiment with robot technology until they find cheap and efficient system. What they are dong now is spending huge amounts of money on robot systems that will become obsolete in a couple of years. Hugely wasted money, they will never become profitable by using this path. Efficiency is the king in this business, not fancy innovation. This warehouse system costs hundreds of millions, it will never be recouped because technology development is moving so fast and quickly becomes obsolete..

Robotics in manufacturing, transportation, construction, mining, retail, warehousing and hospitality is going to throw millions out of the workforce, even the chinese, who will shortly lose their cheap labor advantage and become unemployed also. Gangs of unemployed, broke and aimless youths will roam the streets at night looking for excitement. We'd better build robocops too :(

Implying humans are nessicary or efficent. When the machines themselves are smart enough to call for repairs when needed.

I know what happens there 🤢

Why the horrible intrusive music? Did an adult review this video prior to release? Best of luck, but this is terrible.

All this automation, what are PEOPLE supposed to do, not everyone can be a computer programmer. We piss away millions if not BILLIONS in aid each year to third world countries, what happens in FIRST world countries when we have to do the same because of no jobs due to automation

and human will lost job..

The voiceover for this video could have been done by someone with actual training in voiceover work, and who knew how to pronounce words.

there is no way a computer can tell the difference between a potato and a tomato.
