The human number is ALREADY vastly higher than the non-human number.

The only reason Amazon hasn't replaced them yet is that the technology has not been developed. Every dollar left on the table by workers right now will never be recouped.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
