OM DENNE EPISODE
The line between science fiction and everyday retail is disappearing faster than expected.
Humanoid robots can now move products, scan shelves, replenish stock, interact with customers and perform tasks that closely resemble the work of a cashier.
Retailers including Amazon, SPAR, Tesco, Sam’s Club and FamilyMart are already testing or deploying robots across warehouses and stores, while customers appear far more accepting of the technology than many expected.
In this episode of Retail Talks, Kristina and Darko examine the remarkable progress robotics has made in only one year, from robot combat in China to autonomous convenience stores and machines capable of operating without constant human support.
They explore which retail jobs robots are likely to perform first, why cost savings are accelerating investment, what still makes human interaction valuable and why humanoid store employees may arrive in months rather than years.
The next employee you meet in a store may not be human.
