At least where I live it's a nightmare. Instead of having someone work as a cashier and weight my veggies I now have to weight my veggies myself under the supervision of a worker who's only job is to supervise a machine that is buggy enough to need human intervention for every other client. It only serves the shop owner because he can have a single drone operating a few self checkout machines instead of a single line, but is that a net positive for society ? doubt, going to a supermarket is alienating enough, we didn't have to make it worse. And of course they had to add a gate so now you can't even leave the shop without showing the receipt, when you don't find what you want to buy you have to call and wait for an adult to allow you to leave the premise like you're a fucking toddler getting out of the playground area.
