Amazon drones must make deliveries under the supervision of humans.
-
Last year, more than 30 percent of Prime Air’s 800 employees quit, transferred or were laid off.
-
The regulations of the US Federal Aviation Administration prohibit the company’s drones from flying over buildings, people, power plants, schools and institutes.
The Amazon CEO, Jeffrey Bezos he planned goals for his company for years, these included drones and technology, his main idea was that his deliveries would be efficient and able to arrive quickly through delivery drones and it was calculated that this would be a reality in the long term; however, today, the results have not been as expected.
Likewise, the company contemplated by 2030, certain technological intelligences that include robots as employees, and even surpass humans in the company’s headquarters.
“Amazon it is adding about a thousand robots per day. If you compare the number of robots you have Amazon with the number of employees, it is about a third. And we believe that by the year 2030 Amazon You can have more robots than employees,” Wood explained in an interview with “Squawk Box” of CNBC.
Amazon is one of the largest companies in eCommerce currently and had remarkable growth during the COVID-19 lockdown as online purchases skyrocketed as people avoided going out to avoid catching it, this was crucial for the eCommerce had an impact on the world.
Today, companies are adapting to new technologies, since new prototypes emerge every day that are crucial to boost the performance of companies, it is necessary that these intelligences be implemented immediately to be able to compete in this industry, because to avoid this , companies would become obsolete. Proof of this is the case of Goal CEO, mark zuckerberg that he made a mistake by ignoring the AI in the past, so he recently stated that he plans for Goal Platforms lead with this intelligence, in addition to being able to position itself in this sector, since its heritage has experienced a significant decline, going from more than 120 billion dollars in 2021, to close to 45 billion this year, however, this has a lot to do with the ambitious turn of the Facebook CEO to him metaverse seems to be working against your business more than for it.
Amazon’s drone project hasn’t met Bezos’ goals
10 years ago, in 2013, the founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezoshe talked about his long-term goals and gave a 10-year window for this to become a reality.
“I know it sounds like science fiction. But is not”Bezos pointed out a decade ago.
This year the 10-year term established by the businessman has been completed, however, his objective has not met his expectations.
According to a portal report The Informationin the first month in which this system has been operating, only 10 households have used it in the 2 cities where they have a license to fly, so it is far from the wishes I had in mind Jeff Bezosbecause obviously it will still take a long time for this to operate in other regions, if this plan continues.
It should be noted that in order to comply with current regulations and have permission to operate, the drone must make deliveries under the supervision of human beings; Therefore, the premise of making shipments cheaper and speeding them up by dispensing with workers is not being fulfilled. This means that the ‘gadgets‘ of Amazon They need surveillance even to go from one street to another and it is not possible for them to be autonomous.
This can be a good thing in a way as this will prevent workers from Amazon lose their job and the company’s personal cuts are increased.
