#robots replacing human labor 🤖
🤖 🤖 United Parcel Service (UPS) has inaugurated its largest warehouse in Kentucky, where more than 3,000 robots will be deployed to handle tasks and reduce the reliance on manual labor. The facility, worth $79 million, is part of UPS's strategy to deliver cost-effective and high-quality service to customers. By incorporating automation, the warehouse can be operated with approximately 200 workers while increasing efficiency and accuracy. The robots help with inventory tracking, order processing, and lifting heavy objects, resulting in improved worker retention and reduced injuries. The use of automation is a growing trend, with companies like UPS and GXO Logistics utilizing robots to gain market share and outperform competitors with older facilities. 🤖 🤖
