Oh hi! I need to tell you about the time that I entered into thievery. This ties
into the new Amazon Go store which, while convenient, may be the cause of the fall
of humanity. But first – I'm a thief. And no I'm not talking about the time I broke
into people's houses. I've told you that story before. No, this was a much earlier
time. I was far, far younger. I was much more beautiful. I had dreams of breaking
into people's houses. So I'm in the 7 Eleven – and before I go on, we're all
promising to be cool, right? There's no statute of limitations in Canada and I
can't afford to go to jail. There's just so much napping I have to get done. I'm
there with a friend whose name we'll say is ... let's say Jonathan Tomato-Tomahto.
We're deep in conversation. I've gone in to grab a KitKat bar, and subconsciously,
though, as we continue the conversation we just leave and go back to school. The
KitKat did not even survived a block in my possession, but as soon as that school
bell rang I remembered I did not pay for that. Well that awful feeling that I had
when I came face to face with the fact that I'm a criminal is what Amazon wants
to give you every single day. Amazon Go is this brick-and-mortar store
which has packaged quick food items. The selling point is that it's fully
automated and has no cashiers. When you enter the store you take out your phone,
open up an app, and scan your phone. And then the cameras that are all around the
store are tracking you and knowing what you actually take off the shelf. Say a
can of pitted peaches for your lunch break. I'm still thinking about Call Me
By Your Name. I should make it clear that there are some employees on hand.
They're there to restock items, make sure that the machines are up and running, and
probably trying their best to avoid eye contact. Your credit card – which is tied
to your Amazon account – is charged as you leave the store. No need to line up, no
need to scan, no need to talk to another human being. Really no shame at all that
you've picked up 17 cans of spray cheese because Katherine made a
passive-aggressive comment about how you can't wear white at this time of year.
Well maybe I can, Katherine! Here's the constant struggle I
have in these modern times. I absolutely want things that are more convenient,
while at the same time understanding that my privacy and my humanity are
being corrupted. As for the first point, privacy, automation is coming whether we
like it or not. The McDonald's beside my house uses touchscreens
to order my cancerous almost beef patties.
That's just gonna become more prevalent as time goes on. The time of face-to-face
interaction between employee and customer is gonna fade into obscurity
over the next decade. Sure, there's gonna be outliers in that situation but the
majority of stuff that we do: retail, fast-food, even going to the doctor
doesn't really need another human being to be there. And because of that cameras
and microphones are coming more into our public and private lives. My credit card
is on so many different servers as we speak, there's going to come a time where I can
send my entire medical history just by tapping on my screen. The second point,
our humanity, is what I worry about a little bit more. The empathy that we have
for others because of face-to-face interaction could go away completely. By
making it a unique experience to talk to another human being
I think we've become less human. By cultivating an incubated existence we do
become nomads instead of this collection of people. We need to look no further
than the modern dating scene. The idea of phoning somebody up and asking them out
on a date is completely absurd. Rather we'd rather swipe left or right and then bone
down after we've been sufficiently witty in a text chat. Now this makes it sound
like I'm completely pessimistic about the future, and I don't really think I am.
But now is the time to really contend with our convenience, and our souls. And
maybe this is a tad unfair to solely lay at the feet of Amazon, because do I want
this? Heck yeah, I want it! Even with the hiccups they've been having. But with the
realization that we have to figure out what we do with the society that's gonna
eliminate most of the low paying jobs. And socially how are we a society if we
don't society together? That's bad grammar, I know. But I also
don't have the solutions to these questions. I'm just the clueless white
guy on YouTube who people keep saying to do ASMR. Overall I like the idea of being
able to go in and grab the food I want and leave. But we also have to contend
with the question of whether or not we want to have convenience or simplicity.
Because those two things are very different. However, I'm much more
interested in knowing what you have to say about this. Is this just a convenient
thing that Amazon has created? Or is this the beginning of the end of humanity? Let
me know down in the comments below. I'll be answering each and every one. Thank
you so much for watching! My name is Kyle. I upload videos every Monday and
Thursday. If you liked what you saw consider telling somebody about it. You
can also like, comment, subscribe, all that junk, And also, if you want to
deeply support me you can go over on to my Patreon page, and for as little as a
dollar a month you can help support me over there. I did go back and pay for the
KitKat bar, just in case anyone is wondering. And in case the fuzz are
watching as well.
