Just over half of Amazon Fresh stores are equipped with Just Walk Out. The technology allows customers to skip checkout altogether by scanning a QR code when they enter the store. Though it seemed completely automated, Just Walk Out relied on more than 1,000 people in India watching and labeling videos to ensure accurate checkouts. The cashiers were simply moved off-site, and they watched you as you shopped.
Wouldn’t this turn the store into a ‘stealing minigame’?
I mean yeah, you can try, but it’s actually kind of difficult. It’s way easier to steal from any conventional store, probably.
yeah, that makes sense. I guess it just feels like a dare.
A price tag on anything in any store is a dare imo. You just have to weigh the likelihood of succeeding if you accept the dare and what the stakes are if you fail.
