Amazon Fresh is moving away from a feature of its grocery stores where customers could skip checkout altogether.

Amazon is phasing out its checkout-less grocery stores with “Just Walk Out” technology, first reported by The Information Tuesday. The company’s senior vice president of grocery stores says they’re moving away from Just Walk Out, which relied on cameras and sensors to track what people were leaving the store with.

    idk…

    According to The Information, 700 out of 1,000 Just Walk Out sales required human reviewers as of 2022. This widely missed Amazon’s internal goals of reaching less than 50 reviews per 1,000 sales. Amazon called this characterization inaccurate, and disputes how many purchases require reviews.

    if Amazon wasn’t the source of this number, where is it coming from?

      If the numbers don’t match your narrative, just make them up! That’s the Gizmodo way.

      Probably the ‘1000 people in india’ reviewing that footage.

      The rest of the articles linked in the above one are pay walled and I don’t care enough to dig further.
