Having less to no employees doesn't mean they will transfer the money savings to us. The proof is in the fact that we have progressed so far with tech and machinery, yet we work the same 40 hours a week (or more) and wages have stagnated
Median incomes adjusted for inflation in 2019 was $36,426. In 1981 it was $23,382. Medina incomes did go up -- wages might not have gone up much because incomes are being measured as total incomes which includes regular wages + bonus + additional benefits. People are just getting paid more and more wit bonuses and other benefits such as 401k, etc.
So you and many others are Luddites. Same argument was said when technology replaced many farm workers and all we got in return was a drop from 90% working in agriculuture to 2% working in agriculture and 10x higher ag output.

Companies don't pay what they want, they pay what they can. If you don't have enough money, it's because you have plenty of state. You have no idea the tax hell to which the state mafia subjects them, nor how much they have to pay for each employer, that's why in each state and country what they earn for the same job is different. Find out a little about how the economy works before blaming the companies, slave of the state.
For good reasons sometimes due to mistreatment from managers and customers especially among many other things. Now what will the Karens do when they don't get extra whipped cream on their frappuccinos?
I'm Dutch. I heard an interview on the radio 15 years ago where a business man had a great idea. He invented the decoder to sports broadcasts in tv. The pilot was starting next day. The interviewer asked: "What if people are not going to pay to watch sports?". His anwer: "Than the pilot has failed and sports on tv stays free for everyone".
Oh I love this. Our corporate overlords are finding more ways to save money and guess what? None of those savings will go to the consumers like cheaper products. No instead they get to buy a new Boat. So less opportunities for employment and more money for them. Gotta love unchecked Capitalism.
I agree. Shareholders have to be pleased. It's apart of the corporate system. The investment system expects growth even though in theory the intrinsic value of money doesn't increase. Capitalism is not perfect and will eventually run into problems.
In a capitalist system if a company has high margins that will attract competition to acquire that margin, which will bring down cost as Bezos says “your margin is my opportunity”
Maybe they can start paying people to be entertainers, product experts or something to allow people who want to work in Starbucks to still do that work. Therefore, no one is obliged to work at Starbucks, but for anyone who happens to want to work there, they have that opportunity.
Making coffee in the morning never looked better. My kitchen is filling with fresh ground French roast coffee scent and the smell of the coffee as it percolates is what morning coffee is about. And costs me less than 30 cents a cup.
Make your own egg bites--lots of cooy cat recipes on line. Buy coffee, bagels, cupcakes from local coffee shops staffed with actual people (great if you want to chat or have human interaction). There was life before cake pops (I've heard Costco sells packs of something similiar).
He feels guilty for stealing from the overlords of our economy, why cant he just enjoy that fact and instead went BACK to the store to report the issue😭
This tech has been around in japan and China for years so it's great to see the trend coming to America and Europe now. Of course some will be less inclined about this due to the lack of human interaction.
The extra money they make from paying for less workers will go into the pockets of the CEOs and share holders. They won't pass the savings on to the consumer. It's cute that you think that. Also, capitalism doesn't have to mean making the most for CEOs and share holders and kicking workers to the curb.
@@OneFreeMan17 Hello! It's been over a year and if you're interested, I no longer work at Starbucks. I know shocking. Looking back it's possible I just read the title of the video without actually watching thefull video before deciding to leave a comment. I have a habit of doing that sometimes, or a lot. I thought Starbucks was replacing humans (employees) with robots or something. After re watching the video I see that they still have employees. It's no different than your average Starbucks except it charges you automatically when you take an item off the shelf. Which, I guess is cool but you still have to wait for your drink to be made by a person anyways. Also sometimes people want to pick something up and examine it before deciding to purchase it, or maybe it somehow only charges them for consuming it? Idk, they weren't exactly specific in the video. Either way I don't really care too much. It's not my company.
That’s because you are antisocial and I don’t mean that to offend you. You are replacing humans for machines. They are taking the human out of you and turning you into a robot and don’t even realize it and the next generation would be more indoctrinated
You are living in a fantasy if you think that's what corporations will do with the extra money they save from this. It's all going in the pockets of the 1%
This is like Amazon Go, I love to see it and the next step into the future... Also interesting to see the technology coming out during a time in which Starbucks is unionizing... In any event, happy to be a shareholder of such an iconic, money making powerhouse... Keep buying those mocha choca lattes so I can keep collecting these dividends - hits better than the coffees!
I have been enjoying the cashier-less experience for two years since Covid, I don't plan to go back to speaking to people if I have the option to avoid it. And these stores don't really make money, all you are doing is helping to train the AI and sort out the bugs. Likely less than 10K worth of inventory at any point.
As an introvert, even I don't like this. I'd rather just have a cashier who I can get whatever I want from. I never order more than a drink, but I prefer ordering even my drink with a cashier because of the perceived idea in my head that the cashier may know what is good better than I do since I am not someone who is truly well educated on coffee. I only drink Starbucks for the taste after all for the most part (and spending money at my school location). Plus most of the people working at my school location know me well enough to know my name and some know my regular order also. It feels like they know me better than some app ever would and as someone who doesnt have a lot of friends, being recognized by the employees does feel nice.
For me, this trend of not having anyone in a coffee shop is the same as making coffee at home, I will only waste more time and more money at a Starbucks. If I don't have at least one "Hello" or a "what will be" I won't put my feet in there It doesn't make sense to me sorry.
Do you need to submit a photo of yourself to get in? I figured they need a picture of the person and match the person to his credit card or Starbucks account.
Too much hassle. Need to register with my name before I use. Then I not see many people shopping inside. After few weeks store was destroyed by hooligans. (in China!!! where are video cameras everywhere). I was totally shocked.
Jesus is coming soon! for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 KJV Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

The shelves scanner already scan which ever the item is pick up from the shelves because the shelves was designed that it take inventory every millisecond and it can update as soon as the nearest phone to the item is pickup and charge to the phone and if you carry your phone and your friend phone they chance are both phone can get charged because it is too close
seems like they save money by having the customer do the work. I don't like the idea of machines taking people's jobs away. That's why amazon raised the minimum wage; it makes it easier to justify ROI.

@@uptin at the same time, one farmer today has a way higher potential income than a pre industrial farmer, because his productivity increased drastically.
