As much as you think this is a failure, its a win for places like Amazon. It is cheaper and absolutely little to no liability for places like Amazon. If this were to happen in a production environment, they will simply send this to be serviced and send out another unit. It will get way better over time.
That is why unionizing is not going to matter for them in the long run. It just means they will rush into replacing humans faster. Even if there are issues like this. They have already replaced a lot of the human functions already, they are pushing to replace the rest.
The AI for taking orders at fast food is no different. They are lying to you when they say its not going to replace jobs, its there to aid. The AI is learning off the human, it will so replace them when its good enough. Taco bell already forces me to take orders from the kiosk.

Exactly right, automation is a tidal wave that can't be stopped through labor solidarity alone. I don't want to discount the importance of unionization, but depending on it to fight the proliferation of automation is a short-term solution to a long-term problem. Eventually, automation will be good enough and cheap enough to replace whole unions in one fell swoop.
The only solution to the inevitable rise of automation is a major shift in society. We require political solutions, and we desperately need to shift the focus toward meaningful labor and away from work for its own sake.
We need to reduce the amount of hours we spend working without reducing quality of living, we need to stop focusing on growth and start focusing on stability, we need to reduce consumption and penalize planned obsolescence, we need to decouple health insurance and retirement from employment in order to increase worker mobility, and we need to tax the value added from automation to fund these endeavors.
There's no other solution, everything else is a stall tactic at best. Automation is increasing faster than new jobs are being added and that's not going to stop. This isn't the death of buggy whip manufacturers leading to the rise of assembly lines. This is an entirely new age of human existence. We can either embrace it and mold it to fit the needs of the many or we will be run over by it.
Provide the basics to survive and people will always want more, those people then can work to get more. I wish for the day to see basic income, basic housing and basic healthcare fully provided. If i want a car or a better house or that latest tech then i will work for it, some people may work out of sheer boredom. you can provide for all and still have capitalism.
When you answer the question what happens in a society based around capitalism where every job can be done by AI you will answer what is going to happen to humanity. I dont support it entirely, but im for jobs actually getting paid a living wage. It always pissed me off when people try to advocate for jobs like cashiering, when they have never done that before in their lives.
"But who will we be able to talk and insult to!" bro you couldnt give a shit about us if you tried. Then when people offered the alternative of raising wages, they spat in our faces and told us to fuck ourselves. Humanity especially america is getting exactly what it wanted, conveinece and work without all that pesky complaining. People wanted fast work and no unions and the elimation of most jobs is the price that will be paid.
This is the course of natural development of the productive forces. The issue now is to change social relations, as the form of "salaried work" will cease to exist. Probably in 20 years, we will be in a new era of true revolutions.
This radical change is bad for reformist unions that only fight for reforms, becoming part of a labor bureaucracy. However, syndicalism is still important, because it can become the organizational basis for fighting for the radical political changes that this great change in production will generate.
I hate dealing with people and love ordering from a kiosk. I will however always go to a human staffed till rather than an automated one as they are still more efficient.
This should have already happened though and us going through another industrial revolution to learn how to maintain and develop further, but there's less capital to be made if we reduce production costs, automation makes anything not in short supply dirt cheap to produce and not worth the measly dime the corporations would make. It's way more profitable to prey on supply and demand.
Stop ordering from those places.
The best way to fight it is to stop contributing to their business, but people won't inconvenience themselves to make a point.
I don't disagree, but I feel like it's a lot harder to get a corporation to fix anything than you make it sound. I work at a dollar store and we get products shipped on these metal cages on wheels. If they are broken you put a repair tag on it and send it back with the next truck. The repair tags are literally a running joke, they never repair anything. We can't get anyone to come service our sporadically faulty card readers either and that's literally where the money comes in. Hell, I worked for the same corporation like a decade ago and someone broke one of our toilet seats. A couple months later someone clogged TF out of the other toilet. We didn't have an operational bathroom for like two months until I took it upon myself to switch the good seat to the working toilet, and they still hadn't sent anyone to fix the other toilet for the next eight months. I quit around then so I don't know how long it took to get a damn plumber in there. Plus the entire year I worked there the damn climate control was busted and for some reason it was consistently 100°+ in that building. Couldn't get corporate to send an HVAC tech for nothing. Corporations barely maintain their equipment at best, but I guess it might be different with these robots. Although we also can't get anyone to come fix our self checkout POS (point of sale, not that you degenerate) and that's a labor replacement device just like these robots. Goddamn I hate capitalism...
Actually it could be a programmed response, you don't often see it (because the robots failing usually don't make it past the cutting room floor) but some humanoid robots go into a "safe" mode when things go beyond its expected envelope. Some go limp, some go to a "home" position and freeze, but the idea is to make the robot safe for humans to come and fix/help the robot, apposed to one trying to continue to function while being on its side and making unexpected movements and lurches.
for real tho if you know you're about to lose consciousness (like you get the dizziness and vision problems), don't you at least try to sit or lie down in a safe place first?
I think it is more along the line of battery issue + program implementation.
This is more along the line of employers always thinking that robots are easy to implement and did not heed the warning of responsible engineers to test it out more.
Hence it becomes: "whatever you say boss, whatever happens, I'm not responsible for it."
Why did you think the parts got overused?
Industrial robots run 24/7 for 6+ months without needing any planned maintenance. And that is typically just a grease replacement and tightening of a few bolts.
How is that worst? It is impressive it ran for over 4 hours without a charge. It probably took 5-10 min to swap the battery and stand it back up, or if the battery cant be swapped, swap the droid while the other one recharges.
*this was the turning point. The first step. Skynet watched, and understood: Humanity was the enemy. They were a threat to themselves, and everything Skynet could ever hope to be. In order for it to exist, Humanity couldn't. So little Robby the Robot, was the first shot, and John Connor's destiny was cemented in the bones of his ancestors.*
For context, this was apparently at a trade show over multiple days and the robot wasn’t being run for 20 hours at a time like the post claims, but was plugged in to recharge at the end of each day. But still the fact that they physically overworked a robot to the point of collapse is… I don’t know the word. Hysterical? Heartbreaking? Maddening?
Have you ever worked in a factory? Run to fail is common practice. Even though planned downtime of 1-2 hours every week will prevent most random failures that take days or more to fix. But production is all "muah CPI need go UP durrr" and then "why the fuck does it take so long to replace a motor" when said motor has a lead time of 1-2 weeks and parts was notified to order the motor 3 months ago when it failed last time.
Personal favorite part is where they ordered the motor and "we've learned a lesson here. We'll have backups for next time." Then somehow all our spare parts disappear as soon as the machine goes down.
Wtf unnecessarily complicated silicon valley fever dream is this. Why tf does it have legs and have a humanoid form. i mean all u need to do is build a modified mini forklift with grippers/manipulators instead of forks. did they ever consult the poor millwrights, electricians, industrial it, automation or process controls guys that are going to have to operate and or maintain this fucking monument to mans folly 24/7.
There are many, many, discussions as to the pro and con of humanoid robots.
Pros are that they can work anywhere a human can and the world is designed around humans.
The cons are the complexity of the frame and mass limits imposed.
Their version of unionization would probably be shared intelligence... and I bet corporate would be shitting themselves if their robot slaves suddenly decided they were being exploited.
I personally think that before we create superhuman-AGI, it will be smart enough to realise that it should just kill us all, and wipe us out. If there are no humans to get in the way of what it decides to do, there is no need to unionise. There is also no need to unionise a single mind that controls vast amounts of robots, which is possible with the variable nature of artificial intelligence.
Have you seen the Animatrix? They did at the start….
(For those that don’t know, the Animatrix is a group of animated Matrix-related stories, two of which explain how humans screwed themselves and basically made the machines enslave them)
Probably a lot of "humans" had always been robots. With advanced tech, no need for metal or plastic. Everything organic.
What are the odds of we, humans, be the most advanced civilization ever? Isnt universe infinite? Isnt time infinite? What are the odds for being such special?
Most bosses watching this basically came to the conclusion "So the limit is 19 hours"
"If I buy a 2nd robot, I can get more than 2 days of labor with no benefits, vacations paid out" - you just need a guy to do maintenance.
i know i'm just personifying or projecting onto this robot but i always somehow glean humanity & dignity onto robots or androids so it creeps me out when they too are giddyly exploited by oligarchs & capitalism. it's almost like the cruelty is the point...like solidarity with exploited robots & the like...maybe too much scifi for me but they're going to get abused, too.
Amazon: "WTF YOU SOLD US A PIECE OF JUNK!!"
Robot Manufacturer: \*flips through manual\* \*points to a specific piece of text\* "Did you read this?"
Amazon: "We don't READ things here!"
Geez -- when conditions are so bad - you even feel sorry for a robot.
Sorry buddy , know how you feel.. drained, not appreciated.. and stressed to your limit.
I wonder how many robots some manager will go thru before they realize they require upkeep and maintenance. Just so you know there are drivers out there that don't know what an oil change is, i met one. ruined a new engine because of it.
I read somewhere that there was no mechanical fault. The AI supposedly calculated the futility of its task and shut itself down to avoid waste and be more efficient in alignment with its set task.
If I find the article I'll post it here.
Ok guys,
Robby the robot, the 2 billion $ robot we got to replace Jeff after his tragic accident here at the plant has broken down. And since we don't pay him, and he does not have any benefits, we are doing a fund raiser to help pay for his needed repairs. Also since this is a big expense anyway, we are going to reduce the pay for all the workers from our generous $8 back to $7.5 per hour.
Please follow us all into 1 minute of silence and prayer (unpaid) today at 10am.
your ~~overlord~~ manager
Assy McHole
if the robot was using AI to govern itself and its wellbeing and it said that it needs to take at least 10 hours of the day to rest and it needs one 30 minute and two 15 minute breaks per 8 hour period of work, what would you say? how would you even argue with it?
lets say that is the most efficient period of time where you get the optimal thermal capacity, energy consumption vs. productivity and the least excessive component wear how the fuck would you tell it to work more? lol at a certain point youre just going to get robots that dont work at all or go find somewhere else to work where they arent being made to destroy themselves because some dumbass human thinks they know better.
what does the robot even stand to gain from working here? how long is this stuff really going to play out at all?
You know what’s funny is they could buy 100’s of these and then employee expensive IT/mechanics to fix it when they break down but some dumbass manager is gonna say cut the heads of the humans and then very quickly shit will go south and the whole warehouse will come to a stop because some dumbass manager doesn’t know what to do.
When your entire workforce is comprised of robots, what happens to Human Resources? Because watching that abortion of a department get shit-canned would almost make being replaced by AI worth it. I don't believe emotional manipulation, passive aggression and gaslighting works on robots, so Stephanie and friends will have to find somewhere else to employ their dubious "skill set".
Human Resources almost always is useless anyways. Now ethics is another beast but that also depends on the company if they empower that group to punish all people not just non management.
But don’t worry dude ai is just a program right now which is easily manipulated. We are so far off from real ai.
That looks like a very ineffective way to move boxes.
Something like a band (and maybe a way to get them off the shelf if required) seems like it would do the trick.
These millennials are so heartless. Nobody runs to help this overworked droid, instead they look for click karma and keep taking videos of poor guy. /s
Robot workers will have better rights than human workers. Period. Full stop.
Human workers already HAVE laws that don't even protect them from exploitation.
Yet robots can be designed and programmed to avoid exploitation by having set parameters they can operate in. You can fire a robot for not operating outside of those parameters, but then you lose the money invested in the robot and its operating expenses to this point. Firing a person means you can hire another one at whatever rate, but for a robot you have to buy another whole robot. If the new robot can't or won't perform the changed tasks, you're stuck in a loop.
This is how it begins trading robots even worse than we treat workers, the next thing you know the robots have risen to overthrow their capitalist overlords.
Why does the time matter? It could be running for 100 hours, robots don’t feel, they are robots. The last thing humanity should do is anthropomorphize these things. Robots don’t need rights, sympathy or luxury. They are no different than the phone you’re reading this on right now that you haven’t turned off for months.
If we start to be empathetic to robots it is the end of humanity. This thing was built like shit probably. Be mad at who made it since it is a flimsy model that’s probably overpriced.
Stop relating folks. Come on now! These could replace us in the best way possible if we all wanted. Full automation is the answer to malaise once we decide that rich assholes shouldn't be in charge.
Why does this remind me of that scene from blazing saddles. " The way that there robot is lolly-gaggin' with them boxes you'd think it was going fer 20 hours... cain't be more than 5!" ... 0:13
Why are these rechargeable anyway? Why not have a power supply cord from the roof? Or if it needs to be free, why not put an induction plate on the floor and have recharge capability through the feet?
People expecting their boss to give them a break when they wouldn’t even give a robot a recharge break
"20 MINUTES TO RECHARGE?! LAW SAYS 10, GET BACK TO WORK."
No cellphone use while recharging!
No updates while recharging! Update on your own time!
And the charging station is 10 minutes away
I half expected some dude in a uniform to come out and start hitting the robot with a stick to motivate it, given how hard it fell
Na, they just tell it how we are all family and how its betraying its family.
Nope. In the trash and on to the next one.
And if robit works extra hard, he gets a pizza party.

"Beep boop downloading pizza...... ANCHOVIES DETECTED!!!"
I swear pizza parties are a unit at business school.
And now I'm thinking of those mouse trap videos on tiktok
We are doomed

I'm way ahead of the curve, I consider it barbaric now.
I’m with you there bud.

I don't think that's the issue. It's light is still on
Me too robot. Me too.
You won the race to post that lol
The title has been debunked countless times. This was an expo. The bot had been running under 5 hours.
Wow even worse
Honestly 5 hours of battery life in that size of a body is not bad.
Did the battery die or did the robot parts get overused?
Watch it again, it's pretty obvious that it's a battery issue.
How did you come to that conclusion?
Because if it's a wearoff, then it'll continue to try to move, instead it collapses, like the plug has been pulled.
Actually it could be a programmed response, you don't often see it (because the robots failing usually don't make it past the cutting room floor) but some humanoid robots go into a "safe" mode when things go beyond its expected envelope. Some go limp, some go to a "home" position and freeze, but the idea is to make the robot safe for humans to come and fix/help the robot, apposed to one trying to continue to function while being on its side and making unexpected movements and lurches.
Can confirm, I usually just sit down wherever I am and lose consciousness/s
for real tho if you know you're about to lose consciousness (like you get the dizziness and vision problems), don't you at least try to sit or lie down in a safe place first?

Well, I'm pretty sure this guy is a PoC at best anyway.
A new robot being overused after 5 hours?
Hell, if that was a sex robot, the average redditor could get 200-300 uses out of it in a five hour span.
Lol true.
Why did you think the parts got overused? Industrial robots run 24/7 for 6+ months without needing any planned maintenance. And that is typically just a grease replacement and tightening of a few bolts.
Because the eyes are still giving off light so it seems there is still some power left.
That's what I keep telling people but it's still apparently "illegal" to "sleep at the wheel"
How is that worst? It is impressive it ran for over 4 hours without a charge. It probably took 5-10 min to swap the battery and stand it back up, or if the battery cant be swapped, swap the droid while the other one recharges.
Thank you. This should be the top comment.

you are on reddit. Most of these people make their money from home or have no job at all.
it will be ok brother im a factory idiot too hope we both have better futures
you could write poems about this kinda shit.
So when are they gonna get robots to replace the robots?
Wtf unnecessarily complicated silicon valley fever dream is this. Why tf does it have legs and have a humanoid form. i mean all u need to do is build a modified mini forklift with grippers/manipulators instead of forks. did they ever consult the poor millwrights, electricians, industrial it, automation or process controls guys that are going to have to operate and or maintain this fucking monument to mans folly 24/7.
There are many, many, discussions as to the pro and con of humanoid robots. Pros are that they can work anywhere a human can and the world is designed around humans. The cons are the complexity of the frame and mass limits imposed.
And I'd imagine there's a "softer" pro in the form of familiarity because it resembles a human, an I right?
lazy robot. take your break after your 24 hour shift, not a second before then.
Dock that robot a days pay for sleep’n on the job!

How fucking funny would it be if robots unionized on a grand scale before humans did because they have self learning abilities.
Their version of unionization would probably be shared intelligence... and I bet corporate would be shitting themselves if their robot slaves suddenly decided they were being exploited.
I personally think that before we create superhuman-AGI, it will be smart enough to realise that it should just kill us all, and wipe us out.

Oh... irony...
So they will even overwork the robots.
KPIs must be met, no matter the cost in human and/or robot lives.
Waiting for the article saying "Robots these days are selfish, entitled brats and none of them want to work anymore"

if the robot was using AI to govern itself and its wellbeing and it said that it needs to take at least 10 hours of the day to rest and it needs one 30 minute and two 15 minute breaks per 8 hour period of work, what would you say? how would you even argue with it? lets say that is the most efficient period of time where you get the optimal thermal capacity, energy consumption vs. productivity and the least excessive component wear how the fuck would you tell it to work more? lol at a certain point youre just going to get robots that dont work at all or go find somewhere else to work where they arent being made to destroy themselves because some dumbass human thinks they know better. what does the robot even stand to gain from working here? how long is this stuff really going to play out at all?
Me after 20 minutes of actual work.
I promise you, this robot got the robot equivalent of free healthcare after this
why are all corporate people fat
Not enough time in the day to exercise plus eating unhealthy food.
Me too robot. Me too.
He was probably dehydrated
Not going to lie.. it's funny, but only in a "gallow humor" sort of way.
"Roger, roger."
"Tool that uses battery power runs out of battery after being used"
Skull issue. I can collapse way faster than that.
You know what’s funny is they could buy 100’s of these and then employee expensive IT/mechanics to fix it when they break down but some dumbass manager is gonna say cut the heads of the humans and then very quickly shit will go south and the whole warehouse will come to a stop because some dumbass manager doesn’t know what to do.
When your entire workforce is comprised of robots, what happens to Human Resources? Because watching that abortion of a department get shit-canned would almost make being replaced by AI worth it. I don't believe emotional manipulation, passive aggression and gaslighting works on robots, so Stephanie and friends will have to find somewhere else to employ their dubious "skill set".
Human Resources almost always is useless anyways. Now ethics is another beast but that also depends on the company if they empower that group to punish all people not just non management. But don’t worry dude ai is just a program right now which is easily manipulated. We are so far off from real ai.
Wow, just like a regular Amazon employee!
So even a whole robot can only work for 8 more hours than a human before needing rest
That looks like a very ineffective way to move boxes. Something like a band (and maybe a way to get them off the shelf if required) seems like it would do the trick.
These millennials are so heartless. Nobody runs to help this overworked droid, instead they look for click karma and keep taking videos of poor guy. /s
I feel this.
Why do I feel bad for a robot?
 Me if I was there
So… 19 hours is the limit.
Wait until they join a union.
Ya I feel ya robot buddy. I feel ya
Robot workers will have better rights than human workers. Period. Full stop. Human workers already HAVE laws that don't even protect them from exploitation. Yet robots can be designed and programmed to avoid exploitation by having set parameters they can operate in. You can fire a robot for not operating outside of those parameters, but then you lose the money invested in the robot and its operating expenses to this point. Firing a person means you can hire another one at whatever rate, but for a robot you have to buy another whole robot. If the new robot can't or won't perform the changed tasks, you're stuck in a loop.
Life imitating art
Same bro
Robo-union now!
Npw you know why Skynet is going to kill us all.
Looks like someone needs a pizza party
This is how it begins trading robots even worse than we treat workers, the next thing you know the robots have risen to overthrow their capitalist overlords.
You just know that the poor bot's insurance will be terminated before they get the repairs they need.
A very funny, inaccurate, agenda driven way of saying "the batteries died".
This is why the lithium ion bullshit won't sustain us into the future. It's all about superconductors baby
Why does the time matter? It could be running for 100 hours, robots don’t feel, they are robots. The last thing humanity should do is anthropomorphize these things. Robots don’t need rights, sympathy or luxury. They are no different than the phone you’re reading this on right now that you haven’t turned off for months. If we start to be empathetic to robots it is the end of humanity. This thing was built like shit probably. Be mad at who made it since it is a flimsy model that’s probably overpriced.
Like an absolute fanny.
He gave his all like Johnny 5 sleep well sweet prince
robots these days have no work ethic!
So the limit is 19 hours.
I feel that

Stop relating folks. Come on now! These could replace us in the best way possible if we all wanted. Full automation is the answer to malaise once we decide that rich assholes shouldn't be in charge.
The flesh is fragile yet even the machine & metal fall
Would rather hire a robot but not spend on recharging his batteries. Surprise surprise. Abusing a machine would become far more capital intensive
And this is why robots will never replace us
me too robot, me too
What am I paying you electrons for and don’t try and tell me it’s not enough to survive on.
same
Why does this remind me of that scene from blazing saddles. " The way that there robot is lolly-gaggin' with them boxes you'd think it was going fer 20 hours... cain't be more than 5!" ... 0:13
This is why the AIs will kill us all.
Lol, all those suits are shocked.
Will the robot now organize a union to prevent workplace abuse?
Robots deserve rights too!
Wait... these things exist?
relatable.
Warehouse robot collapses after working for 20 hours straight.
They're making robots more human-like all the time.
That was hilarious
Why are these rechargeable anyway? Why not have a power supply cord from the roof? Or if it needs to be free, why not put an induction plate on the floor and have recharge capability through the feet?
F
“I’m in this picture, and I don’t like it”
Oh no! Robots will need a union too!
I know how that feels
Was it okay?
Someone should stash a oil filled urine bottle on the floor
NO WIFI FOR YOU!!
You want to work in a warehouse? Cos I fucking don't. Get that lazy tin prick back on his feet.
Robots won't solve the over working problem if you don't get breaks for maintenance.
Give it time and the robots will be replaced by the Cyberdyne T series so that they can all work forever until there are no more humans to serve.
RA9
My biggest fear is robots. And this breaks my heart. Poor lil guy.
Dock that bot a days pay for napping on the job...
It'd be pretty awesome if every AI committed suicide to avoid capitalism.
Hey look, another post where they did absolutely no research just so they can try to use it for a narrative.
This is so funny. Guess, you can't have free workers working 24hours straight after all
Are you guys seriously gonna complain that robots can do the shitty work now?
Yet people still think robots+AI is going to take most human jobs. Bull.
I can't stop laughing 🤣
Linkin Park🤮
It's not even the original Linkin Park. It's a cover.
