Amazon announced on Monday his million robot worker and said his entire fleet would run on a recently launched generative artificial intelligence model. This step comes at a time when more technology companies reduce work and warning.

Meanwhile, Dresser said his new AI “Deepfleet” model will coordinate the movement of his robots within his performance centers, reducing the fleet travel time by 10% and providing faster and more economical package supplies.
According to Dresser, Amazon started deploying robots in its facilities in 2012 to move inventory shelves through the floors. Since then, their roles in the factories have grown extremely, ranging from those who are able to raise up to 1250 pounds of inventory to fully autonomous robots moving with customer orders.
Meanwhile, Humanoid robots that work on AI – Designed to imitate movement and form of a person – can be deployed this year at the factories owned Tesla.
Fear of work safety
But although achievements in AI robotics, such as those who work in Amazon come with the promise of improving productivity, they also caused concern about mass loss of work.
Exploration A poll published in March It turned out that both AI experts and the broad public see the factory workers as one of the groups that most risk losing their jobs.
This is the concern of the dresser seemed to try to apply in his statements.
“These robots work with our employees, deciding great climbs and repeating, creating new opportunities for our advanced operators to develop technical skills,” Drempir said. He added that the “Center for the next Generation” in Schrivport, Louisiana, which was launched at the end of last year, required 30% more employees of reliability, service and engineering roles.
However, the news of Amazon’s extension appeared shortly after Andy Yasi CEO said CNBC The fact that Amazon is a quick deployment of generative II will lead to “fewer people who perform some jobs that technology actually starts automate.”
Yasya said that even if II excludes jobs in certain areas, Amazon will continue to hire more employees in II, robotics and elsewhere. But in memory Employees earlier in JuneCEO confessed that the company’s workforce is waiting In the coming years are shrinking In light of technological progress.
The decrease may have already begun. Cnbc report This Amazon has reduced more than 27,000 jobs in 2022 and 2023 and continued to make more focused business cuts.
Also recently other great technical executives such as the CEO of Shopify Tobi Lutke warned of the influence which II will have a staffing schedule. This happens as a wide range of firms that invest money and take ui Run rounds Dis finances.
According to Dismissal.FyiLast year, 551 companies fired about 153,000 employees. And a report of the World Economic Forum in February find that 48% of US employers plan to reduce their workforce from the II.
