Scales are like two years out of fashion. Target and Walmart are using cameras and machine learning now. Almost no false positives, but someone's going to come and take a look if you bag something without scanning it.
I noticed it once when I paid for pharmacy items at Walmart and later put that bag into the bagging area when I bought grocery items. It flagged it as an unscanned item and notified the attending associate.
All in all, it's a superior experience to waiting in regular lines or having to talk to people. Ultimately, I want to just scan and pay with my phone without the kiosk bottleneck.
