Amazon sieht Last -Roboter, die seine Einstellungskurve verflachten, laut internem Dokument | Als Amazon letzte Woche seinen neuen Roboter enthüllte, wurde er als sicherer und einfacherer Front -Jobs eingestuft. Was das Unternehmen nicht erwähnte, ist ein breiteres Ehrgeiz: die Notwendigkeit, viel mehr Menschen einzustellen.

„An internal document obtained by Business Insider reveals Amazon’s long-term vision of [automating many warehouse tasks](https://archive.is/o/Vod2E/https://www.businessinsider.com/amazon-robotics-tye-brady-ai-warehouse-jobs-human-common-sense-2025-2). The document, dated late last year, said Vulcan and similar robots are „critical to flattening Amazon’s hiring curve over the next ten years.“
This suggests Amazon is trying to use automation to slow the rate of new hiring in the future, rather than replace existing workers.
The company still plans to „have a lot of people for a long period of time,“ an Amazon spokesperson told BI.
Amazon introduced Vulcan last week as its first tactile robot, capable of sensing and adjusting the force needed to pick products from crowded bins and tall baskets, improving safety and speed.“
At least the robots dont have to pee in bottles whilst zipping round the warehouse (no breaks allowed).
Don’t know what will happen to the humans that had these shitty jobs.
Yeah and all of us have been watching the way Amazon regards their employees for years now.
You either accept it and let it grow even worse,
OR – and the solution is really simple –
you STOP BUYING FROM AMAZON.
It’s not that difficult people.
This is really good news
Those jobs at Amazon were awful and low paid
Isn’t this a good thing, though? Why would we want more and more people forced to lug boxes for a living?
On simple truth: you are a cost and the company’s goal is to get rid of you. Every single company. Every single one of you. No matter how hard you work and how well you do your job.
But that’s a good thing, no? Robots should do tedious and hard work instead of humans.
‘Zero Headcount’ is the new rage and it aint just Amazon. Half of the companies with the ability to deploy robots or AI are simply waiting for a good time to let people go without raising a ruckus, say….during a recession.
But yeah, hiring is flat on the other side.
Why is anyone even considering this a secret, we all know this is the ultimate goal. Make human work like machines to then replace machines to work like machines.
I work at USPS. Our plant also brought in robots earlier this year. Our plant manager held a meeting and lied right to our faces.
(Paraphrased): „Let me clear something up since everyone keeps asking me. The robots aren’t going to take away any of your jobs. In fact, they’ll create *new* jobs!“
Get the fuck out of here. How stupid do they think we are?
Yeah, that’s what they always say. The first robots in automobile factories Post-WW2 were sold as doing the most dangerous jobs, but these were also the higher paying jobs. Soon they are 3xpanded to eliminate as many jobs as possible. You don’t need to pay a robot benefits and ensure they have a safe working environment. And they sure as hell don’t have to follow labor laws concerning overtime and holidays and weekends.
Amazon has been trying this for years and years. And they’re going to keep dumping money into this for more years. As a former Amazon warehouse worker, those robots are just not very good. More often than not, they just sit idle.
lol. Total – duh.
There is no more „if“ only „when“
And the when is – this decade.
That shouldn’t be a shocker to know that Amazon wants to replace its workforce with robots. Of course that’s been it’s goal all along.
