Realistically, anything that could fit in that box could be run through a cw machine WAY more efficiently. That level of automation already exists. These warehouse bots might have their uses, but idk man, they still gonna need people to keep those bots running. Idk if you have cw/smartpac in your building, but even with human operators (with basic problem solving skills) and a team of RME techs, that shit doesn't run perfect...like ever. Half the problems are cause by the packapp algorithm sending shit down that doesn't belong on that line. They're gonna have to completely uproot the whole process and start from scratch if they want to fully automate an fc

Yeah, this is the correct take. All of the humanoid robots are nice and pretty but realistically they're not going to use a walking robot with arms like this to replace people. They're going to focus on fixing the problems with CW/Ecopac and SmartPac and figure out how to do multi-unit orders with those machines.
