So, Akash Gupta has a “vision” for the future of warehousing—how delightful. I suppose it must be comforting for him to imagine a world where robots wrestle packages while humans cling to their jobs like a toddler grasping a candy bar, just before it disappears into the gaping maw of automation. With the relentless march of AI, Gupta’s warehouse wonderland is more like a digital graveyard for human laborers.
It’s really a sad spectacle, watching once-vibrant workers now reduced to mere inefficiencies in the eyes of warehouse managers. Did you hear about the warehouse employee who put in decades of service, only to be told that a robot could do his job better? Of course you did—because these stories are becoming as common as TikTok dances. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
