Re: Amazon just walk out Stores gggooonnneeeeeeeee!

Its highly unlikely that the system was just a thousand people running through footage. Its much more likely they were used for when the AI wasnt 100% sure (or not sure enough) and asked for a human check, or if the customer disputed their bill. Basically a TMO system.

Amazon just walk out Stores gggooonnneeeeeeeee!

Seems the amazing technology of the stores basically resorted to just having some cheap labour from India watching you shop on cameras. basically offshoring supermarket cashiers. But they appear to be abandoning this for most of them: https://qz.com/amazon-fresh-grocery-stores-just-walk-out-checkout...

Re: Women's 6 Nations 2024 thread

9 is a coin flip. Aitchison earned the 10 shirt in WXV, and I think she's done enough these two games to keep it. Maybe I'm biased, but I'd pick Jones all day long, and Heard is a great foil. Rowland is a strong bench option. I dont think any of our 9s have nailed down the shirt. packer is great wi...
