omg I had this idea for like a decade now, but obviously didn't know how it could be implemented. Very nice. I like it

What if I just scan my phone and then turn my phone off and walk out with all that **** for free?

In Trump's America, you will be stopped and frisked.

This looks like it would go drastically wrong.

Very dumb. How does it know YOU bought/purchased/took a product of a shelf?

Secondly how does one enter? What if they don't scan their phone? They can still walk in? I think they need those metal barriers you see at fairs that rotate after getting access otherwise you can't move forward (unless you jump over it; security guard!).

That means shelves can't be overstocked if it's all weighed / stocked by censors. So the system knows if a product is taken off the shelf? And what if you get charged for other people's groceries? How the hell can this even be manageable without scanning it?

Big MESS.

Maybe they need to weigh their bags and figure out what was sold during that hour and the system will figure out what YOU purchased by using the weights of all items. It's the only way I can see this working.

Please explain cause I'm still confusion.

You don't say?!

I know at Target we have these chip activated products within the UPC of some products. We have a special gun that goes up and down aisles and beeps when it comes across one of them products with a chip.

Is that something that could happen here? A chip in your product? Does your phone have to be activated through out the whole experience? Or can you turn the phone off? How will Amazon know it went in your bag, if your phone turned off/died, during the shopping experience?

I'm sorry but I like to look at the big picture here. It's not manageable or feasible. They need to explain this a little better. In the commercial a woman picked up a sandwich and it was added to her account...how? Then she put it back on the shelf and it was removed from her list. Then she grabbed it again! *_*

OMFG THE GOVERNMENT JUST WANTS TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT YOU BUY AND WHEN YOU'RE HOME IT'LL KNOW EVERYTHING THAT IS IN YOUR HOUSE!

Didn't Trump say he wanted to provide more jobs to fellow Americans? Guess cashiers will be out of that idea.

Can you calm down a BIT smh

****ing chill

so much pASShion for a product She doesnT have tO Purchase

I like the idea but I also don't like the idea. I'm split Do I see this taking off? Not yet but the future of low skilled retail jobs is set in stone imo. It's eventually going to disappear. Automation is the future and fighting it is a losing battle so we need to learn to adapt.

the question is i guess, will it support people who have food stamps?

realistically we're looking at something that'll either take over the first world or do absolutely nothing

doubt big chain stores would buy the technology for their stores, so that would just leave amazon to have their own shops, and judging by the commercial, dat aint no grocery store. looks like a place to pick up snacks


which is somewhat convenient i guess?

They should start this out in places like airports, they're a tad unnecessary anywhere else at the moment tbh.

Revolutionary!

Can robot ai steal though omg!

I can't wait for this

This looks like a mess waiting to happen. What happens when the internet goes down?
