If Bezos gets into biotech, he's about to be Bob Page status

Yeah, it does. Like someone else said, roombas to clean the theaters, they already have automated ticketing machines and food dispensers, where do you need humans if you take away those two main contact points? Bezos has money to put in robot cooks that were invented about 5 or 6 years ago so food prep can be automated as well.......

Fam what are you talking about?

What year are you living in?

Most restaurants and grocery stores either have very limited or no automated services. At best they might have a few self-check out isles.

The idea that everyone in a movie theater....or even most people....can be replaced by machines....again, what year do you think it is?

I’m in 2020, Have you seen the inside of an amazon warehouse? They are replacing humans at a break neck pace and you damn well bet he would implement the same to a theater. He’s already going after grocery stores, there’s a place in Seattle with zero human interaction or even wallet use.

I know several people that work or have worked in Amazon warehouses....they're humans, not machines.

Again, what are you talking about?

The shyt you're talking about is incredibly fringe. You're talking about one grocery store in the entire country. Again, most restaurants and grocery stores do not have the type of shyt you're talking about. Of if they do it's in a very limited capacity, alongside dozens of actual humans.

Logistically, right now, there's no way to implement the type of stuff you're talking about. A fully automated movie theater? Not one, as a gimmick....but as a business model? You sound crazy.

No way this should be legal. Amazon already gotta be illegal if you ask me.

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

I don't understand why people love these billionaires so much.

Because as the ongoing stimulus debate shows, too many folks, regardless of working/middle class, are inspiring elitist hoping/waiting for their turn, while complaining about social ills to hide their intentions/comfort

It's not about ideals/principles so stop contemptible behaviors like taking advantage of the vulnerable, it's about who benefits from such behavior while pretending to be outraged about the act
