Don’t worry, this little robot’s not going to replace 1 million Amazon warehouse jobs.
Here’s how Amazon described its test of Agility Robotics’ bi-pedal Digit robot in a press release yesterday:
Digit can move, grasp, and handle items in spaces and corners of warehouses in novel ways. Its size and shape are well suited for buildings that are designed for humans, and we believe that there is a big opportunity to scale a mobile manipulator solution, such as Digit, which can work collaboratively with employees.
Scale usage, but somehow not replace any human workers at newly cost-conscious and union-hating Amazon? Sure.
