Daily reminder that if i shit in your mouth and you pay me 100 dollars for it, the GDP of our country will increase by 100 dollars.
I went to Uniqlo the other day (a good place to buy basic clothes) and they almost have this. You can drop your basket of shit in a thing and it scans it all. Worked flawlessly. I guess the Japanese are just smarter.
Went to Uniqlo (in Japan) and I felt like a dumb gaijin because a worker had to show me what to do (basically nothing, just set the item down).
I still don't know how the frick it works.
RFID in the cloth.
they're doing it to cheese now too

i suspect you could probably cheat them by jamming the frequency.

fun fact, the name UNIQLO was an accident, their name was Unique Clothing Warehouse and they created the name UNI-CLO but when they registered the business name a staff member misread the letter C and registered UNI-QLO instead
Maybe they have RFID tags on everything or some shit.

Always wondered why Amazon didnt just use some sort of RFID tag solution for it, would be soo much easier than fricking tracking video, its like tying your shoes with an excavator, remotely, utter nonsense
The only challenge is checkout without putting the items down but thats not a hard problem, which may have been a reasonable solution to do with video tracking the entrance while scanning the tags
It's kinda hard. For instance, two tags touching is not going to be all that uncommon in a cart. For passive tags that's likely game over. You probably need two tags per product to get the probability of interference low enough. Then a couple antennas to deal with the possible orientations of the tags.
things like produce are by weight so you'd either have to weigh and tag a thousand apples or switch to a per unit pricing model and people aren't going to like that

or you could just put pressure sensors on the bins/trays holding produce so it can tell how much weight was removed when you picked them up
I never got that concept. Sure it's nice to just walk out I guess, but the self scanning station or cashier is really not the bottleneck of my groceries shopping.
I mean, have you ever seen an amazon go in a ghetto? I've only ever seen them in really rich parts of town and inside places with security staff like corporate buildings.

any given operation can run more efficiently if you remove one mandatory role
I don't think they'll ever get rid of shelf stockers and jannies though.
Not unless people suddenly become happy with pickup and delivery
You're here laughing and posting stale pajeet memes because you never read the actual articles. What they are creating is a surveillance state where your every action in the store is filmed and logged, and you're charged based on what the cameras and algorithms detect.
Line must go up. Paying a couple cashiers minimum wage makes line go down. Having human workers lessens the "need" to have cameras and scanners documenting every customers every move.
All AI applications start with the tech being there, sensors/cameras/tags on items and then accruing data while humans verify it
You can make something simple like just a camera array that can detect and item being picked up, but it might lack the ability to 100% tell if customer walks out with it or if its left somewhere.
why don't.. now hear me out, why don't we.. hold on a sec, why don't... we just let customers scan barcodes with their phone using an app and use that as the checkout?
everyone already has a computer with a camera, and from what i understand you need one to use those stores anyway, why complicate it with hundreds of cameras and complex ai vision?
The truth that ~~*they*~~ dont want us to know is that ALL computers are like this. Computers are NOT real. Every single one of them is actually just filled with dozens or even hundreds of tiny people hiding inside and operating them. Traffic lights also work this way. If you stay up late sometimes you can see them delivering tiny pallets of food and water to the mini humans
When I had a gameboy as a child I believed that there was a single adult playing against all the children in the world, and that he was a cheat who enjoyed making me lose.
It was actually a team of adults living inside of your gameboy. Very tiny adults. An entire society of them. Ever heard people say "circuitboards look sort of like cities"? Well that's because they ARE cities. An entire nation of mini people, operating the tiny pixels and the game mechanics.
So, what I'm getting from this is that AI is actually totally fricking moronic, and it requires several dozen times more human support than an actual workforce.
My shops in Australia jsut use cameras and AI at the self checkout. I took a product and went to scan it and it had a cardboard sleeve on it which fell off in the trolley, i had swiped it and then went to put it in the bag but noticed it didn't scan
machine noticed i didn't put the thing i brought up to the scanner into the bag and even showed me a replay of me and the highlighted product with a box around it
nothing
it's a similar issue, but different circumstances.
amazon can afford to shutter an entire organization if they have to
Tesla and other car friends, at least the ones claiming to aim for self-driving, have no choice but to pursue it because they can't expand or retract into other territories.

There are no sergeants in the navy. And no marine who values his life will ever call his NCO "sarge". Frick you, urban dicktionary.

Its all RFID tags. You can actually steal them from the in store tags if you're crafty enough, although I think they're write protected.

The Japanese are more civilized to. Like there was no need to have bars to protect their vending machines.
yeah instead the machines are filled to the brim with nonfunctioning foreign coins
I live in Italy and decathlon (big sportswear shop chain) has those. I also wonder how the frick it works.
like this
Yeah it's not that complicated. Just good engineering/software. Might be too weighty/expensive for supermarkets and difficult to use on produce.
I never got that concept. Sure it's nice to just walk out I guess, but the self scanning station or cashier is really not the bottleneck of my groceries shopping.
solves a problem that doesn't exist and then asks you praise to praise them for it.
its for their benefit, its harder to shoplift when the store monitors every single thing you touch
Doesn't Sams Club let you check out items while you're shopping so you don't even have to do any sort of checkout?
they scan the code on the phone and verify the stuff you buy like they do with a regular reciept.
was too easy to steal stuff from the store.
there’s no fricking way.
it’s a photoshopped bullshit headline, where’s the link?

It didn't work because of blacks. Everyone knows it but nobody will say it. Frick this gay earth.
No wonder it failed with a service named AmaZONGO.
geg
I mean, have you ever seen an amazon go in a ghetto? I've only ever seen them in really rich parts of town and inside places with security staff like corporate buildings.
so, uhh, big question
why not just have a normal store with a normal checkout that works normally
any given operation can run more efficiently if you remove one mandatory role
I don't think they'll ever get rid of shelf stockers and jannies though.
Not unless people suddenly become happy with pickup and delivery

Every so called "AI" should be measured by Indian operations per second (jeet/s or jeetps)
AI powered = all Indian powered
SAAR HAVE YOU REDEEMED YOUR GROCERIES SAAR
WHERE ARE YOU GOING SAAR DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT PAYING SAAR, DO THE NEEDFUL
i read that story on april 1st and assumed it was an april fools
Wait so all that shit about weight sensing shelves and ai enabled cameras was just pajeets watching in some sweatshop
>ai enabled
It's just pajeets training a regression model, or literal pajeets doing the work.

You can make something simple like just a camera array that can detect and item being picked up, but it might lack the ability to 100% tell if customer walks out with it or if its left somewhere.
I bet hiring remote jeets from Jeetia, is cheaper than running an AI server from the west.
Why am I surprised?
I shouldn't be at this point in my life but I still am.
What a fricking shitshow.
It would have been nice but AI is a scam and people are Black folk. How did they not expect that? More money laundering?
why don't.. now hear me out, why don't we.. hold on a sec, why don't... we just let customers scan barcodes with their phone using an app and use that as the checkout?

There's even a documentary about this called TRON. Really interesting stuff.
Poo powered AI?
The future is blight.
AGI = A Guy in India
So, what I'm getting from this is that AI is actually totally fricking moronic, and it requires several dozen times more human support than an actual workforce.
im surprised they killed it now with AI
My shops in Australia jsut use cameras and AI at the self checkout. I took a product and went to scan it and it had a cardboard sleeve on it which fell off in the trolley, i had swiped it and then went to put it in the bag but noticed it didn't scan
machine noticed i didn't put the thing i brought up to the scanner into the bag and even showed me a replay of me and the highlighted product with a box around it
Yeah that shit is annoying as frick but it's 2010 vision tech. Not hard to do with object detection and gesture detection
what does it mean for the future of self-driving cars?
nothing
it's a similar issue, but different circumstances.
amazon can afford to shutter an entire organization if they have to
Tesla and other car friends, at least the ones claiming to aim for self-driving, have no choice but to pursue it because they can't expand or retract into other territories.
the indians shall soon rule our roads. remotely.
what could possible go wrong?
