First AI came for the journalists,and I said nothing, because I am not a journalist Then AI came for artists, and I said nothing because I am not an artist. But now infront of me as a certified forklift technician…. I am devastated
Don't be devastated. Them things will only work on perfect pallets and in a perfect world. They're more apt to kill someone or run off a dock than a human is.
@@lennonhendrixamaru5800 Actually, they are very unlikely to kill someone or run off a dock. Limitations are easy to program into them. They never get lazy or distracted. They follow rules 100% of the time. There are lots of potential issues with automated forklifts, but not killing people or running off a dock.
As someone who's done this job, they have a long way to go. I see in the video a bunch of pristinely wrapped pallets in brand new condition. Reality is most trucks are packed like hot garbage and the pallets are overlapping each other and falling apart, often with the entire stack of boxes leaning due to being in a trailer on roads and highways for hours or days. Also a human can go over twice as fast. It's a neat idea but there are a lot of things that will make these more of a nuisance you constantly have to babysit than something useful.
But as an ex forklift driver I can admit what one forklift driver could potentially operate few of this machines at same time :( machines taking our jobs,not foreigners :(
Yes indeed, and space is a premium so if you don't cram in those pallets then they'll have to wait till the next truck. Which won't make your customers happy at all.
@@curiositycloset2359 I hope so. But corporations owners won't lose their jobs. And also those who lose their jobs( whoever they are) will start to compete with others.
I have no problems with robots taking over these mindless jobs. Or were the reports coming out of Amazon with workers pissing in bottles like monkeys in a cage something u want to see more of. There will still be need for customer service and maintenance. If all ur going to do in life is get a GED or highschool diploma and call it good enough, ur just gonna have a hard time. Unskilled labor jobs are out. What is an unskilled job? Something u can teach a robot to do. Power to the people, join a union
@TheSLOShadow power to the people? Join a union? 🤣 there aren't enough customer service jobs available, nor maintenance jobs, a lot of people rely on theses types of jobs to feed their families and keep a roof over their heads and if this automated forklifts were implemented countrywide tens of thousands of people would be out of jobs, the kind of thing unions are fighting against. 👍 your concept on reality is absolutely farcical.
@TheSLOShadow except there are specialised AIs that can do both the examples you gave as 'but there'll always be...' I guess the question becomes, if labour isn't the currency of workers, what will be?
If you slow down this video to x0.25 at 3:22 you will see the reality of warehouse work and the difficult a forklift like this would imply! Warehouse major problem is space and unless you invest a lot in space management your warehouse can not run an "intelligent" forklift or it will have a breakdown like real forklift operator!
Finding cheap warehouse labor is hard. Always put the word cheap in front of labor and you're much more likely to get a true sentence. Hopefully, people will stop lying about labor some day.
It looks pretty good but as a health and safety representative I would still be worry about it, keep a VERY close eye on it and if ANYTHING look remotely dangerous I would switch off those little monsters to protect the staffs and report to management.

Can I suggest you google 'craigslist' for any major city in North America and check out the job postings for warehouse staff. I can tell you that here in Toronto, there is a dramatic shortage of warehouse staff.
1st time I've seen them on a trailer 🤯 🙂 lfg.. these will be effective efficient cost savers... I've been watching their progress.. won't replace everyone... lol but some 🙂
It's hard to imagine it could stack tall pallets of product. Detecting a balance shift in the load would be difficult as well. Also, overhead objects in relation to both the mast and the loaded pallet are critical obstacles. Pretty cool overall for what it is, though.
there's unloading and loading duties. the robots can definitely unload, but maybe the humans can load and stack. you're probably still cutting your work force in half...which companies will see as win/win.
Yeah they said somewhere I’d the forklift takes half as long as a person but needs no lunch break or a paycheck or sick days it will be worth it but for more random pick up environment this will not work
It’s already happening for freight companies, they’ve got automated TUGS in Singapore that tow containers autonomously to a human crane loader for loading
@Mark Plain That's the currency that's given by employers, but the currency given in exchange for that 'dollar', is labour (I'm not American, so I put dollar in quotes cause it's not natural to me)

This is a dumb argument that people keep spitting out while our industries are destroyed, salaries wrecked and living standards decrease. If it were true that it wouldn't be cheaper to get them. Fact of the matter is, this reduces jobs, and reducing jobs means raising competition for others which means lowering everyone's salaries.
Same. They had barcodes on all entrances and bays. 6 months later they went back to 100% human because there were too many issues. Technology has progressed since then but it will have to be very mature before my ex company would invest in it again.
Some thoughts: 1.) We haven't even gotten self-driving cars perfected, the last thing we need is to equip them with long metal spears. 2.) The expense for these, initial and maintenance, will be hard-pressed to outdo that of established machines. 3.) The claim of warehouses having trouble hiring is bullshit. They have trouble with _retention,_ due to how they treat and pay their workers. 4.) What happens when these break down? They replaced the humans, so unlike traditional machinery where you can find a workaround via manpower, production simply stops. 5.) Did they seriously say it sees only a 4-5ft high plane around it? It should have more sensors, cameras, etc. SD cars have loads more, and they don't need to work in such confines and at such a pace. 6.) If you want to implement an automated machine like this in a limited environment, it would be more technically sensible to have it on tracks so there are fewer variables to consider.
Hey it's ok! The emergency stop button is inbetween the spears in case you do get impalled. And the safety box holding the safety network cables connecting to the safety PLC will ease your mind that once you've made it through the Jigsaw impalement game, the stop button will work.
All working class will soon be obsolete. The only way individuals can feel any protection is if they develop new creative businesses themselves or get passive business models which self-generate money. I find it hilarious when the working class are feeling more and more threatened by automation and AI as it wipes out industries, this is only expected it's nothing out of the ordinary and people have had their entire lives to learn these risks.
everyone commenting that robots will take their jobs...i've been working in bottling plants across the US and have seen plants with automated forklifts already for years now, all the machines in those plants do what humans did before, from manual filling of the bottle, packaging and palletizing, those were tasks made by humans in the past, now we have robot receptionist, waiters, AI news presenters, etc
What are the cost of these forklifts plus the cost of not hiring 4 forklift drivers. The Universities take any funds for research only to ignore job losses but hey only skilled graduates to program the systems. The employers are getting greedy saying no need for warehouse men .
Could ‘intelligent’ forklifts be the future of industry? Yes but not now because different countries have different pallets size example: European pallet size is different to Asia etc
The price you’ll pay for the forklift(s) themselves and an engineer to maintain them all, you’d quickly find you’ll be cheaper sticking to traditional, human occupied forklifts.
Neuter… and “it”… in the English language. And if you had done your homework-instead of doing like most when it comes grammar and had the non existing dog eat it-you’d know. Although some languages have more genders than the English… up to 20. But I have not idea what gender forklifts have in those languages. Since it is a non living physical entity I would suspect it’s language gender is in most something that isn’t associated much with human-gender attributes or sexual attributes. Although I bet some can associate this thing with either a specific human sex or a specific human gender…. or both… so who knows (but the language expert). Languages are also “living” and changes as we uses them. And it happens that languages adds or deducts genuses once in a while. Right now our languages are changing quite rapidity as the world we live in changes rapidly. And I know at least one language that has added gender pronouns in just the last few years. But the dialect I speak only has two… but it’s not always clear what gender a thing is… it can change depending on the situation and who’s speaking to whom. If this dialect would ever evolve, I would actually put my money on it reducing the genders to one. Or that may perhaps not be evolving, but regressing.
I think that it's BS that all these businesses say they can't get people to work and pulling out their hair on finding people... They're not coming because they don't want to work for crap wages.. Businesses really have to get their heads around this...
I think it should be investigated in the past and present in terms of political impartiality and credibility whether BBC was informed and deliberately withheld from the people the now-known state structures.
they spend millions of dollars in research and development, im pretty sure its more accurate than you think. The AI on those machines just keeps learning and adjusting accordingly.
@@Jimmyxsx Tesla can't pull it off, but these guys will? I don't think you understand the difficulty of accurately placing forklift arms under randomly shaped, often hand made, often broken, pallets. Also, the contents on the pallets are often oddly shaped and can be loaded improperly. They will have to standardize every pallet at the minimum, with regular human inspections, which completely defeats most of the point of a warehouse. At that point, you're closer to an Amazon fulfillment center.
@@eugenes9751 a warehouse is a controlled environment you cant do that in the street thats why tesla is struggling. the sensors and cameras of the forklift are able to tell if the product on the pallet is tilting and will not pick up the pallet. These autonomous forklifts work 24/7 with no breaks, lunches or vacations, it represents huge savings for many companies. Of course autonomous forklifts are not gonna work for every type warehouse.
So hard to find employers ? That’s lies ! And basically removing the blame for taking millions of peoples jobs away from them , what are forklift drivers going to do for work then ?

Listen to Elon Musk too much perhaps? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I definitely get that fake idol worshipping bullshit kind of vibe from you, to be honest. ..then believing you know it all… Very amusing, but 3/10, wouldn’t recommend.
This technology for fully automated forklifts/warehousing has been around for decades. If it was going to catch on it would have done by now. The only thing I can see forcing it to mass role out is the labour shortages in the coming years.
Some can do very complex things. Like precision surgery. And the AI fighter jets being built right now manage quite complicated actions. Then the computers alone has reduced the amount of jobs substantially for long now… Although it has created many jobs too. And so will robot also likely create new jobs for us humans. Unless they completely make us their slaves (the computer games have already begun… making the youth their slaves). But obviously the best thing would be if robots and computers completely could replace us (when it comes to annoying, boring, and hard labour)… if we just could figure out an economical system where we all don’t necessarily need to labour in one way or another to get income. I bet some of my future no-job income that an AI relatively soon will present such a system for us!
Forklift didn't do proper trailer entry, were the trailer's wheels chocked? Sign in front of the trailer announcing active entry? Floors of the trailer checked for integrity? Didn't think so. Few workplaces are well organized to the point where the extra expense of this can be justified.
The guy’s comments about how hard it is to find warehouse workers and how warehouses are located away from large populations - comments like that are just dumb. Pay people enough and work them reasonable hours and you can find people to do the job. It makes me think of the adage “It’s impossible to make a man understand something when his paycheck depends on him not understanding it.”
That is a lot of people's healthcare & wage that can be skipped by installing an 5$ microcontroller into the forklift! A m a z i n g, lets replace traindriver and busdrivers next, also all the people in the mining & construction industry letsgooo 21th centuuury.

Everything Beeb is likeable!
I think it should be investigated in the past and present in terms of political impartiality and credibility whether BBC was informed and deliberately withheld from the people the now-known state structures.
Imagine a 7,000lb Roomba, what could possibly go wrong? Get the forks in at the wrong angle and everything comes down.
they spend millions of dollars in research and development, im pretty sure its more accurate than you think. The AI on those machines just keeps learning and adjusting accordingly.
@@Jimmyxsx Tesla can't pull it off, but these guys will? I don't think you understand the difficulty of accurately placing forklift arms under randomly shaped, often hand made, often broken, pallets. Also, the contents on the pallets are often oddly shaped and can be loaded improperly. They will have to standardize every pallet at the minimum, with regular human inspections, which completely defeats most of the point of a warehouse. At that point, you're closer to an Amazon fulfillment center.
@@eugenes9751 a warehouse is a controlled environment you cant do that in the street thats why tesla is struggling.
the sensors and cameras of the forklift are able to tell if the product on the pallet is tilting and will not pick up the pallet.
These autonomous forklifts work 24/7 with no breaks, lunches or vacations, it represents huge savings for many companies. Of course autonomous forklifts are not gonna work for every type warehouse.
@@Jimmyxsx The warehouse is. The pallets are not.
@@eugenes9751 thats why there are plastic pallets that dont breaks and most pallets with product are same height and width.
So hard to find employers ? That’s lies ! And basically removing the blame for taking millions of peoples jobs away from them , what are forklift drivers going to do for work then ?
Ok, SO WHEN SO WE START DISCUSSING UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME?
we’re soon going to have more people than jobs for them. Ai isn’t slowing down soon 🤷🏼♂️
Wakey wakey folks.
there isn't going to be one. we are heading into a post-scarcity society where every basic needs will be met
@@Allen-d7l I wouldn’t rely on that at all that if I were you.
Allow me to introduce you to humans, we will fuck it up.
I mean, all you’re doing is trolling strangers… what makes your statement valuable outside of your own mind?
Where’s your evidence?
Listen to Elon Musk too much perhaps? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I definitely get that fake idol worshipping bullshit kind of vibe from you, to be honest.
..then believing you know it all…
Very amusing, but 3/10, wouldn’t recommend.
@@Allen-d7l describe how we will find “meaningful purpose” and the positive emotion it allows?
This technology for fully automated forklifts/warehousing has been around for decades.
If it was going to catch on it would have done by now.
The only thing I can see forcing it to mass role out is the labour shortages in the coming years.
Robots are taking all the easy jobs
Driving a forklift iss only easy if you know how to do it, i know because I messed up in all sorts of hilarious ways when I was learning.
They are replacing software developers as well. No one is safe.
Some can do very complex things. Like precision surgery. And the AI fighter jets being built right now manage quite complicated actions. Then the computers alone has reduced the amount of jobs substantially for long now… Although it has created many jobs too. And so will robot also likely create new jobs for us humans. Unless they completely make us their slaves (the computer games have already begun… making the youth their slaves). But obviously the best thing would be if robots and computers completely could replace us (when it comes to annoying, boring, and hard labour)… if we just could figure out an economical system where we all don’t necessarily need to labour in one way or another to get income. I bet some of my future no-job income that an AI relatively soon will present such a system for us!
@@abrakkehakka1357 the owner will always have a problem and the population will shrink.
Why is there a seat?
dangerous if the machine is out of control
Giving limited oxygen to the Patient while on ambulance increases the risk of death.
Give food always for energy
And Water for hydration.
What’s this in reference to?
Forklift didn't do proper trailer entry, were the trailer's wheels chocked? Sign in front of the trailer announcing active entry? Floors of the trailer checked for integrity? Didn't think so. Few workplaces are well organized to the point where the extra expense of this can be justified.
Not even close to the speed i can operate a forklift safely
The guy’s comments about how hard it is to find warehouse workers and how warehouses are located away from large populations - comments like that are just dumb. Pay people enough and work them reasonable hours and you can find people to do the job. It makes me think of the adage “It’s impossible to make a man understand something when his paycheck depends on him not understanding it.”
How many will die becaue this 'bright' idea?
Nooooo my forklift certification
Yes, robots over humans.
finding labour so hard
talking about those who only offer minimum wages
That is a lot of people's healthcare & wage that can be skipped by installing an 5$ microcontroller into the forklift! A m a z i n g, lets replace traindriver and busdrivers next, also all the people in the mining & construction industry letsgooo 21th centuuury.
When there are no jobs for anyone, who is going to be able to purchase the goods the machines are making?
All the "useless" folk will be gone, the fortunate few will be serviced for free by robots. Money will be a thing of the past when there was once 8 billion more people.
Replacing intelligent people?
Please don't take my job😂
So how does this work when a pallet has fallen over or the pallet is built too high on the truck. .... Oh yeah useless because the warehouse sucks
1:54 thats the oldest child i've ever seen (blue shirt)
You vil own nothing and you vil be happy.
What sorts of jobs will people be left with in the future? Everything is being automated so you need less people and thus more profit.
