🤖 Robots are coming for our jobs! Or are they?

Walmart is spending billions on warehouse automation, yet automation systems are still struggling with tasks as simple as handling certain boxes and products.

A good reminder to look beyond robotics hype.

One of the interesting trends we're seeing in industry is that, alongside the push toward greater automation, there's also growing interest in technologies that AUGMENT human workers.

Exosuits are one example.

Because replacing humans turns out to be a lot harder than the headlines suggest.
