Tyrone will make that bot his bitch

Not the upgraded model....

 

[dudebro]

Yes.

You're telling me our loaders do that now, reliably, after blazing for ten minutes in their car in the parking lot?

 

[Over70irregs]

AI might not affect UPS employees much, yet... But, the latest jabber from the labor dept, and regurgitated by Wall Street is that AI is already munching about 4,000 jobs per month. So, about 50,000 jobs gone per year right out of the box.

Writers and lower editors were toast almost immediately.

Done. Now evolve.

Blah blah stinkin blah. Who wants a package delivered by a robot? Let’s see a robot drive into some of the places we go, bring dolly loads of packages through doorways and place them exactly where the customer wants them.

PT shift 22.4 runners for pre designated difficult stops light pkg. Heavies done by wider cover area manned humans.

And then quickly go out of business

Amazon already charges you a $1 to return pkg to Amazon store. Free return if at a Amazon, Kohls, Staples

i would think Management would be targeted first. A computer could easily dispatch the building ,if not the division.
So much dead weight could easily be elminated

maybe this SHOULD be true, but it's not at all

I dropped them at UPS store too, no charge.

AI generated dispatch could in no way be worse than the human dispatch generated now

He’s retired so….

 

[catstalking]

He’s retired so….

oh I see, opinions discarded then

he can go whine about religion or something while he unironically prays for soviet gulags

I didn’t say that.

 

[catstalking]

I didn’t say that.

I think you misread me

 

[UnionStrong]

I think you misread me

Nope, we’re on the same page brother.

 

[PreTrippin’]

I can’t wait for AL to dispatch me. Our current dispatcher lives 1200 miles away and has never even visited our area. AL can’t possibly do worse.

I think you have mistaken with some one else dude.
ORION sux balls, and AI dispatch cannot in any way be worse than it is now.

My oh my you are certainly fun tonight dude.

LOL WUT
