Of course they are. Do you know how expensive it is to repair or replace a broken robot? And how cheap and easy it is to replace a dead worker? /polemic >

And have you seen these robots? I mean...if I could afford one I'd have one... >

Buy a roomba, a bottle-jack, and a roll of duct tape.  Make your own. >

Robots are way more expensive to replace. >

And they don't complain, or take breaks, holidays etc.
Occasionally a part will wear out or break, that's it... For menial tasks, they're just the better solution. >

And it doesn't feel pity, remorse, or fear. It absolutely won't stop until your small item is in a large package. >

I'm an engineer (not for amazon) but it would seem I've hedged my bets nicely, workers aren't needed, but I fix the replacements... >

Can I have some of whatever it is you've been smoking, sounds amazing. >

Yeah, it’s a joint called “fk with shit you’ll regret”. Lots of folks smoked it before: dude that invented 401k, etc. >

It's Amazon. Warehouse workers are treated like dirt. However people still admire how Bezos is so successful. >

Luckily most people are well beyond admiring the worlds best bloodsucking leaches
