Wonder how many a human operator would handle in the same time? A good worker can peak something like 2000+/h. But then again, humans need food and sleep, while "Frank" goes brutal for 7 days straight.

On the flip side – when a polybag gets stuck, a human just pushes it through. With that "Uh oh... stuck" in the chat, the robot probably still needs a manual reset.

Mad respect for the 100% LIVE stream though, great watch!

Today is May Day. International Workers' Day.

The holiday exists because in 1886, workers in Chicago went on strike demanding one thing: stop making people work 80 hours a week. Things got violent. People died. Eventually, decades later, the 8-hour workday became law.

140 years later I'm watching a robot handle a grill on that same day.

The machine doesn't observe the holiday. Doesn't observe any day. It just runs.

The thing those workers were actually asking for was less human suffering at machines. That kind of happened. Just not through shorter shifts. Through the machine taking the job entirely.

Good outcome? Weird outcome? Genuinely no idea.

Anyway, happy May Day. The robots have it covered.
