auto-shopping

You shouldn’t just pass it by with indifference. It’s a robotic shopping cart for the supermarket. If you input the right codes, it can “shop on its own.” It can even pay by itself…

Manufacturers don’t mention this detail: whether the machine’s “I’ll pay for it myself” means “I’ll pay from my own robotic account” or whether the owner has to put in the money.

As seen in such critical areas, technological progress is still “half a job”…
