You know something is up when they say repeatedly say we value our employees
i can tell you most of the store will never have something like this
its usally heavy lifting, and there will never be this many robots.
honestly they should show the hours and the messed up sh*t they do.
They do value their customers that's why they accept no mess ups. Trust me I work for this company for 9 months and they are very accurate and what they do and if you mess up you mess up and you failed the company and the customer
@@karena2746 you must not work with the facilities then, its an absolute hell. The shifts are ridiculously bad on your back. Nor are they helpful with scheduling.
@@thegamingfudgeftw4682 Because of these employees we all get our delivery at our doorstep.
I can imagine the mass amount of headaches this entire planning process has caused people. Its ridiculously impressive
Changes are made step by step with extensive off-site pilot testing. The FCs are also modular so they scale nicely. Moreover, only some FCs have the latest infrastructure.
they will save so much money when they fire all those inefficient humans
Juan Shaft Patel 🗿
We are still sorting out problems from long before the FC opens

I never realized just how much machine learning went into these fulfillment centers!
yeah you need to learn how to use the machine to work there
@@juanok2775 Nice Juan!
Did you ever work at an Amazon fulfillment center?
Amazon is a logistical masterpiece
It just blows the mind.
@@BenRajan FC wise yes, Flex and DSP Delivery...Still needs a lot of work. Flex app is clunky, slow, not battery optimized. App or routing system needs work.
Kudos jeff..the vision this man has is crazy..still cant believe something like this is possible
No doubt jeff is the richest person. He understood the internet when it came, he understood cloud when it came and hw understood AI when it started to boom
Just wow. How much automation and still it employs a lot of people...
Just imagine how many people and their brains were required to create all of this. Aws,this fulfilment center.
Amazing
@@12Thr33such a childish comment.
Amazing to see huge facility and working smoothly ...
This was great, I love nerdy behind-the-scenes things such as this. Impressive is an understatement.
Are you an AI?
You seem proud of being a public nerd. Keep your pithy comments to yourself, boy.
It's a good thing that AWS is part of Amazon otherwise their monthly bill would go in millions.
It's still baffles me how much work and effort was needed to get those complex systems to work so seamlessly together.
It is not so baffeling when you realize that it gives amazon a reason to keep the two companies together. Amazon is only financially viable because of aws. This system gives them a little more reason for not being slapped by antitrust. :-) but it’s really clever ofcourse....
@@Thesupermachine2000 thats not true, its been financially viable before AWS. Free Cashflow is the real reason its successful, net income is not the reason.
@@Kimchi203010 all the more reason to uncouple then ;-)
@@Thesupermachine2000 so jeff bezos gets richer? you do know splitting the company would make shareholders far richer in the long run. look at what happened to standard oil. AWS alone is going to be worth 1 trillion dollars.
they will save so much money when they fire all those inefficient humans
Honestly this is so impressive and this video is two years old so I can only imagine the new technology and updates to robots
I work in a fulfilment centre in England.. it's honestly not bad to work there at all, I never get talked to about going to the toilet or chatting with my work mates, everyone is pleasent to work with so I'm not sure what all this talk about not being allowed to use to toilet is all about, unless it's an issue in the states which should be addressed..
But yeah it's the best job I've had to be honest, opportunity to climb the ladder if you want, lots of overtime available, one of the highest paying jobs in my area and good people to work with.
I love seeing this when I've ordered a computer case trough Amazon sold by Amazon and it's been lost last seen in an AMAZON warehouse ... :)
It's The Case of the Missing Stuff. Sounds like a job for Sherlock Holmes😀
Combination of Control system, Robotic, Machine Learning, IoT, and Cloud computing is awesome. The real implementation of Industry 4.0 at its best!
I work there and it’s just as amazing as it is on this video pretty mind boggling to see everything go on right in front of you
This was extremely enlightening. It's really interesting that a randomized system is more effective than a systematic approach. I doubt it's true, since it's an optimization problem, but I guess when you compete with noise in a system I guess it can sometimes be just as well to do it that way, until you find a system that actually beats the noise or the randomness in a system. That is to say, that the probability of getting the right stack order is higher than it is while performing a random stacking or storage act.
Option one: stow all computer mice in one bin, only one can be picked from at a time, stow it randomly in 10-20 bins, multiple can be picked from. Stow mice and powercable together, u likely good!
I wondered this yesterday and it was recommended today
Machine learning in your brain bruh
I enjoyed watching this tour
It blows my mind at just how much internal network traffic goes on in a single FC.
your machine learning to select boxes seems to be not working very well tbh.
no sometime the bigger size in box is cheaper than smaller one
If you’re referring to the seemingly odd size of some boxes, I’m sure the size is only one in a dozen parameters that govern the selection during the time window when the choice is made.
10:02 that's really why the box sizes are selected. Not for the product inside, but for packing in a truck.
@@joegroom3195 That’s one of the parameters I was referring to, yes.
It works perfectly because they select boxes not just to put products in but also based on truck packing so they fill the trucks in a way stuff doesn't fall and break. Wasted packaging means wasted money, something Amazon isn't going to do.
I worked there five years and enjoy every year I was there and had a set back and will be replying for a application to work there again.
thats so sad
Juan Shaft Patel dude you are soo sad
0:50 The crooked line makes me goes crazy
I think there's a lot of potential for efficiency in delivery stations as well. Would love to see more software engineers and robotics people innovating at DS's!
Amazing technology.
Amazing! I enjoyed it so much!
Thanks for showing.
I have looked at a few Amazon videos can be confusing, this video though in its explanation makes sense.
Insane! Those packages look so Happy.
"Our amazing employees" who can't take a piss break for fear of being fired...
I work at Amazon and I see this a lot where people don’t leave their stations at all and it’s actually sad
Oh and btw its true about not being able take a bathroom break
@@blackpoodles9152 @Abraham Aman that sounds awful, I'm sorry y'all have to go through that...
@@abrahamaman8260 I take my bathroom breaks whenever I want or sometimes I go to the bathrooms just to waste time, I’m the one who’s working and drinking water I’m not gonna hold my piss just to stay on my station for 2 hours straight
Maybe should've tried harder in school if you wanted a better job.
I was supposed to go on a live tour at an FC near my house and 2 days before it was to happen it got cancelled due to COVID. I can literally see the FC out of my bedroom window.
So much learning ... Super ! Thanks
Very interesting, thank you.
Really amazing! Very detailed explanation!
wow - thank you for sharing this! I work for a major automotive company - so cool to see fruitfull optimization in another field!
Using just my history of orders half was either not really needed and forgotten is some drawer. Of the 1/2 I actually needed/wanted 1/2 of that was "wow this is cheap." Of that 1/2 broke, had issues, not what I expected and joined the other junk in some drawer. Of the original 1/2, within 6 months I realized I could have lived without it. The only things I actually have a real use for eventually were the boxes all this stuff came in so I can put more stuff in them.
awesome video, the art of logistic
10:05
That wall building is on point!! Danger lol
Thanks for the explanations
This is damnnn impressive even with all machines and stuff its looks hectic but its they made it efficient
We agree! It's pretty great! 😁
Organized chaos. Kinda like a beautiful symphony
Amazing insights.
I just saw a familiar book! The OG CRACKING THE CODING INTERVIEW !!
Mind-blowing!
Impressionnant par ce concentré de technologies et d'intelligence!
That was quite impressive and interesting. I enjoy videos of how large-scale operations work. Thanks for sharing.
🌴☀️🌴
I think #Jeff shouldn't be the only one to receive credit for this operation. Props to #Andy, everyone at Amazon involved with aws, & the #Amazonians that are involved in making this process successful. #AMZG😉! Thanks everyone!🙂
Don't forget RME 👍
I worked in the warehouse before. It's total hell .....
care to elaborate?
@@myGorillaMindset they fire you for any reason they like. No job security
@@partytimelingerie9076 do they make people run around for packages? i think they skipped few things in the video
@@sb.sb.sb. overall bad experience
@@partytimelingerie9076 what's going on with the unions I hear about?
It's great to see the process of how Amazon delivery's our products
6:05 Not all products at amazon are at the warehouse of course. They work with smaller, independent businesses and distributors. Minor note.
Yes agree
So totally cool!
In the entire fulfillment center only aws Neptune ,Aurora and ML used
Surprising to me. This means, aws has to catch up to fit in enterprise end to end warehouse deployment
Great to see COGNEX Machine Vision support Amazon
amazing great employees
Amazing..!
amazing seems to be the only description of your human stock
Absurdamente INCRIVEL! 😵
Obrigado! 🙌 ☁️ 😊
Fascinating
I need to Know that as more Amazon!
I was really disappointed that I was put in shipping, I really think I’d enjoy picking more, I’m going to ask them if I can switch tomorrow
Watching this I wanna order again today to give the robots a job to pick up my item ☺️
So much mathematics,calculation and prediction,WOW 😯
AWESOME!!!
Excellent Video, can't watch this enough! I love Amazon ♥️♥️♥️
Will there be changes to the restock limits?
Amazing
So machine learning determined the bottle of Advil I ordered should be in a 12"x6"x3" box?
Fascinating!!!!
Amazon created AWS for enhancing its operations but ended created the jewel in their crown.
Awesome stuff.
it's really amazing and fully satisfied from Amazon.....my clienta is also satisfied
Astonishing.
i love it
Just WOW.
Never realised “The Warehouse” by Rob Hart was so close to reality.
I honestly didn't expect that amazon used their own AWS services they develop.
2:30 Anyone know what materials Amazon uses to create the storage pods?
4:00 I can't figure out what type of elastic fabric they're using to cover the shelving entrance.
Definitely plastic. Most likely what they use in rain-coats. Like Gore-Tex, Tyvek or coated nylons. It's waterproof, elastic, and lightweight.
It'd be great if Amazon delivery people could take back all the cardboard boxes and plastic bubble padding and return them to the fulfillment centers to be re-used. I get deliveries all the time and I'd be happy to leave my old Amazon boxes and packaging material near the delivery area to be picked up and re-used.
I mean, they use a recycled paper for their boxes so as long as you recycle your trash things are good. Sending someone to take the boxes back wouldn't be worth the cost and ecological impact. An interesting option would be box-less packaging. In our country (Czechia) the most popular online store has thousands of self-service mailboxes throughout cities, where, upon entering the PIN code of your order a locked shelve will unlock and you can take your items that are not packaged in any box. It is also quite convenient as I can pick it up whenever I have time as in Europe the delivery people can't leave your order in front of your doors, and if you happen not to be at your place, then they try to deliver it to us the next day.
lmao i work 14 hours a day delivering your packages. i literally piss in a cup in the back of my van twice a day. you want amazon to add to my workload?
i agree that AMAZON should do a lot more to recycle and a million other things, but don't even try to put it on the 'delivery people'. you'd think after watching the video you commented on you would have worded it differently?????
@@itsmatt228 do you mean Alzabox? They are packaged, tho?!
You just spotted a business opportunity
so cool I'm so happy
2:58 Ok I know I need to work on coding problems. But you don't have to show me packing CTC BOOK to feel everyone else is doing so.
LMFAOOOO
i got my amazon order yesterday
Thank you Jeff 🙏🏻
Wohh it's great I can't even think how the process is going on
Incredible how that all works. No wonder stuff gets to me in 24hrs or less most of the time.
Yall should have kept me around to help with your AI systems.
Instead you wanted me to be a picker forever.
So I went somewhere I'm appreciated.
This video I realized just how machine learning went these fulfillment centers
Simply amazing!
those slides are dope
Amazing technology deployed 👍
8:09 if needed protective packaging… I could buy a box of packing peanuts and it would still come with those bubbles
Dear Amazon, when did you change the acronym? It was always Scale, Label, Apply, Manifest.
Bruh I order something and I have prime but it says it will arrive today at 4pm and when that time comes it's not there so I check where it is and its delayed back to 10pm or later or even sometimes to the next day.. And sometimes I order smaller items and they arrive in boxes 4x the size they should be going off of what they said. Like I ordered a watch onetime it was in a smaller box inside a bigger box with nothing in there besides a really small amount of paper.
สุดยอดเลยครับ
Those bins are not automatically brought to their stations for picking. They make people run around the warehouse loading the bins into there machine right next to their station
This is an AR FC. The bins are brought to the picker in these facilities.
Engineering is the most Beautiful thing on Earth
Impressive
I'll start by saying that I really appreciate every single hard working person that works in these warehouses and delivery. I look for products on Amazon that are not made in China so American businesses can be supported, there a lot of businesses on there just it takes longer to find them. Amazon the corporation is awful though for everything, from non durable, disposable, hazardous chemical containing Chinese products that clog landfills, to Indian based horrible customer service, and loopholes so they don't contribute any thing with taxes. All the environmental & health costs paid by employees, customers, while local businesses suffer and the huge corporations profit.
Amazon's ecommerce site is nothing without China because 97% of its goods are made in China. Check the product reviews and see for yourself. Plus its very hard not to buy anything made in China. Look around your home.
As a non-Chinese, I think we should appreciate China for its contribution to the world regardless how the American govt tries to paint its competition.
Yet they are quick to copy their moves, inventions and ideas.
Amazing.
Its whole new level of supply chain
A couple of years ago, I looked up what model of robots (the short, shelf-transporters) they were using to see if I could get one myself...
Turned out they were only sold alongside a warehouse, which wasn't within my budget 😢
They were originally Kiva Systems. Amazon purchased the entire company to integrate into their FCs.
@@homicidemonkey4365 Are you telling me to check my local Amazon website for them? 😝
Or telling that I'm probably even more out of luck now?
@@ChristianOhlendorffKnudsen out of luck for the exact model. There are several other AGV robotics companies though.
@@homicidemonkey4365 I checked Ali express, I might be able to get one as low as $2500, expensive just to sate my curiousity, but still, achievable if I want it bad enough.
Even if I imagine the very cheapest model from AE probably won't be useful to me at all 😁
@@ChristianOhlendorffKnudsen I'm an electrical engineering student at ETH Zürich and am currently attending a lecture about recursive estimation taught by Raffaello D'Andrea, one of the co-founders of Kiva Systems. Maybe I can get him to give you a discount 😂 (also, check out his TED talks, they are quite interesting)
Working at an Amazon FC is ridiculous, incredibly long hours with short breaks. Turnover is very high
they will save so much money when they fire all those inefficient humans
All things are not Machin learning, something you can archive directly on the basis of conditions.
5:31 Is this guys SRBS faulting out? At my FC. Rapid blinking like that indicates such.
You don't have the latest firmware
