Good example actually. In Switzerland nearly every store has automated checkouts and depending on the local demographic more and more people are using them. There is one human supervising like 4-16 automated checkouts, or 1 open real checkout that keeps an eye on the machines.
That is at least 2-3 workers less for every single store in the country in just the last few years.

- herbst 4y agoInteresting point, I haven't really thought about that yet.
