…the roadmap right now include speed, accuracy, scalability, rapid delivery, to name a few. To get there, we are building equipment and systems that learn using AI and are fit to meet changing requirements in the DC. For instance, we might think there’s little relationship between red and white polo shirts. But consumers are ordering them together with very high frequency. That requires a system to learn from this trend and accommodate it in the name of efficiency and speed. So robots and other types of automation have to be able to adapt tomorrow to a new layout or process…
