@@JoseRX95 Absolutely! I would look forward to stop stacking boxes and find training to become a robot controller, or robot maintenance worker, or robot tester, or anything that would help the robot work the mindless, dangerous jobs. Any industry that "hires" robots should provide training to move its workforce into other positions. Just look back at the times when we depended on human strength to move pulleys, pull carts, push wagons in mines, dig holes for tunnels, so on and so forth... Back then there was also a furor of fear that men would starve for lack of jobs. Instead, men became conductors, controllers, drivers, planners and so on. Robots will also increase productivity, which in turn can allow for humans to work less hours/week with same income. We need to move forward. And we will move forward. Those who refuse to accept it and don't start looking at work opportunities alongside robots will be the only ones without a job.

It's fine that they want to show off this complicated robot but if they truly want to automate moving the crates, just use more inclined roller conveyers with a couple of actuators. Like self driving cars. Stop using visual cues and use radar, RF, etc. Like when the military created drones. They didn't just stick a robotic man in the cockpit of the existing fighter jets!
