The video attached is hilarious because the human worker is a hundred times more efficient.

Well, yes and no. The robot is slower, but can also work without a break. You couldn't keep a human the whole hours the store is open back there. So just a question if the robot is fast enough to do the work a human would do in the same time.

I am more wondering about the manual intervention. The video says "in rare cases" but who knows what thats supposed to mean. If the operator has to take over as much as a normal human would work there and is that slow, this would be ridiculous.
