next you have a bunch of these make test chambers for your test subjects
If robots remove the repetitive jobs what’s the problem ? People will find better jobs to do.
Why are all the employees at DHL so cute? 🙂
I work for a parcel company, boxes need to be picked up from underneath and on both sides. The boxes can often weigh up to and even over 30kgs, picking those boxes up from one front or rear side panel will cause all the weight to rip through the box.
Better have a solid, strong floor in your trailers.
super
This is one of the ways how the people loose their Jobs
Bots instead of humans
This is just the beginning 😕
The main reason people are usually against automation is people losing jobs. I liked this video because it proves that automation can actually add jobs, as now people have more time to do other jobs around the facility.
so theres only blacks in DHL?
So, this is obviously a sales pitch. What are the downsides?
This would be useful for removing documents from Biden's home.
Another reason for universal basic income
Everyone that did that job, is now unemployed. Even the foreman. Now's there's just a couple robotics nerds running the whole offloading.
This is just so much paid propaganda it isn't even funny. Impressive technology, but the paid actors here are in no way convincing.
nice but i think it´s too slow.
when are these new shipping containers with lighting coming out?
Boxes look fake. Just a test? Why show test. Show real thing.
The only reason you still have a job is because they haven't figured out how to automate it yet..
I was doing this for a full year. Every single day I wished I could be replaced by something like this.
It’s awesome to see!
doesn't look very impressive. The video should say what were the challenge to build that thing
I always say that the robots have to be able to see to help humans do the lousy work
1:43 love her accent
brother there is no way in hell 1 side of my box is supporting the whole weight of the allowed max.
La sélection sera naturel pour le prolétariat.
AKA we want to hire less people, keep or raise costs of our services, and triple our profits. Then wonder why our economy is crashing but hey, why should we care we're rich and we'll be dead in 40 years.
thus history repeats itself
What about charging? I doubt it can be running like that all day.
Dey took 'er jebs
I wonder, can these can do train boxcars?
Lots of the people praising this are the same people who will lose their jobs because of advancements like this. If I am an employer I see an opportunity to reduce staffing with a workforce that doesn't sleep, take breaks, complain, get injured, call in sick, gets holidays, sick leave or paid time off, requires no training, raises or promotions, and does exactly their job and never gets caught slacking off looking at TikTok. Be careful what you wish for. Educate yourself in repairing these things or else your employment status is doomed.

Bro in the black vest built like a frickin tank.
dude this was my full time job when i was 16 . this is remarkable. complementing a machine who would replace me lol. geez
Someone lost there job because of Stretch but 2 people got a job because of it.
It amazes me how people can be so enthusiastic about something that will eventually put them out of work.
Finally I can start blaming robots for being unemployed
M‘am you are unemployed.
It rips em heavy packages with weak packaging apart.
Stretch unloading boxes of parts to build new robots until eventually we bow down to our robot overlords!
Jk
It’s told to empty the container. Some internal dimensions of the container are provided. That’s all.
Then stretch just emptied the container. Awesome.
I want to see some A.I. replacing senior analyst and computer desk jobs.
Holy Fuk . It’s happening so fast 😩
Great for handling boxes, but what about oddly shaped items?
I once had a job unloading pigs that had been slaughtered at an abbatoir and cut in half lengthwise. Heavy, slippery and very unwieldy. It ruined my back and I wouldn't want to wish that job on anyone.
Translation:
"Our executives are tired of paying for human employees and giving them benefits, and we don't like being sued for abusing them all the time."
One day they will run the whole factory autonomously, and there will be an emergency Supervisor nearby just in case.
Will humans have more time to socialize, aspire to greater things or run out of work and be in debt?
LOL, They're talking like they still have a job.
Boston dynamic could you guys please make a real life fully functional r2d2 that actually can do tasks and jobs around warehouses like Amazon and more pretty please 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Puts that "fight for 15" into perspective. It's a fight and the machines won
Companies always complain about the work force and not getting employees post covid
Yet they do nothing to provide competitive wages or decent benefits 🤔 the solution is to get some sort of robot to justify been a amazon wannabe in exploiting their workforce for little to nothing and keep replacing them because there not humans trying earn a honest living their just a number on a computer..
You don't hear unión companies that provide a decent living have lackluster workforce or high turn over rate…
Boston Dynamics making life better every year !
“Post-COVID you’re not getting as many people as you would through the door.” >90% of staffing shortages in the last 2 years have been caused by poor working conditions and inadequate compensation/benefits. What’s DHL like in that regard?
When all the humans are JOBLESS, the OWNERS of the companies will Benefit… NOT these people!
