Read Time: 4 minutes

🤝 Amazon/MIT: how will robotics affect employment?

Our Report: Amazon, in collaboration with MIT, is launching a study to understand the effects of robots on employment dynamics—specifically the implications of increased automation in the workplace (almost ironic considering their stance in the past).

🔑 Key Points:

  • The primary concern of the study isn't job numbers but the perceptions of human employees and the general public regarding the growing role of AI and robotics in various industries.

  • Amazon Robotics' Chief Technologist, Tye Brady, emphasizes that while over 750,000 mobile robots operate in their facilities, Amazon has still hired hundreds of thousands of employees in the past decade.

  • The research will delve into human-robot interaction (HRI), a critical domain that explores the synergy between humans and robots in shared environments.

  • MIT's Julie Shah comments: “Our research shows that the best way to optimize human-robot team performance is to develop robots that are active collaborators in helping a human to learn about their capabilities, limitations and behaviors.”

🤨 Why you should care: This study could provide insights into how businesses can effectively integrate technology without compromising the human workforce. Equally so, the study could highlight how effective robots are, sans humans, in a warehouse environment.
